摘要：
Temporal changes in groundwater quality in the industrialized area of Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh have been studied. The results from 1982 to 2006 have been compared. The present study indicates that groundwater is mainly contaminated by SO42- concentration, which is more than that observed in groundwater in 1982. This is attributed to prolonged persistent and perennial industrial activity rather than other sources on the aquifer chemistry. High concentration of SO42- above the safe limit for drinking purposes causes health disorders. Remedial measures have been suggested to control pollution in the groundwater system.
