| Summary: | Water is a basic need in various human activities. drinking water for general purposes is generally supplied by the Regional Water Company (RWC), but RWC’s ability to meet the needs of the community is felt to be limited. Potential groundwater around a large residential area and has been widely used for drinking water, this study aims to determine the physical quality of water and shallow groundwater classes in the Palu valley. By using laboratory analysis of shallow groundwater samples taken randomly in the existing Palu Valley where people use shallow ground water as a source of drinking water. The results of the study that the physical quality of shallow ground water in the Palu Valley meets the physical requirements of drinking water and includes class B water and can improve its physical quality into drinking water with simple processing. |
