Abstract
Arsenic and fluoride are the most widespread geogenic source of contaminants in groundwater affecting the health of millions of people worldwide including India. Geogenic contaminants in groundwater are due to the resulting geochemical changes in the aquifer material – e.g. high concentrations of the contaminant in the rock matrix, dissolving during water-rock interaction – or occur due to environmental conditions such as an arid climate or reducing conditions in the aquifer that facilitates the contaminant to occur in a more mobile state.
