| Abstract | ||
| The current work was included study of some physical and chemical properties of some aquatic ecosystems represented by the temperature ,turbidity ,electrical conductivity (EC) , Total Dissolved solid (TDS) , Total Alkalinity (TA) , Total Hardness(TH) ,calcium and magnesium Hardnes (Ca and Mg H) ,chlorideCl- , sulphates, sodium and potassium , in addition to determination of their Suitability for human and animal drinking and Irrigation in different areas within Qadr Karam district.The results showed that the wells water was Stenothermal, water temperature was between (25-26.1)C º. Turbidity values ranged from (0.05) NTU for a Qhashqa well to (1.99) NTU for Hawt Kanyan spring, that were within the acceptable average. pH values ranged between 7.2 and 8.2 with low alkalinity and were within the standard specifications for drinking water and irrigation water. The electrical conductivity results were (392 – 2268) μS/cm within the standards for Iraqi and the world drinking water with the exception of a water of Iawai Sheikh Humaid well that exceed its proposed limits (1600) μS/cm and the well water for irrigation water classified as an increase in the degree of the problem. The TDS values are compatible with the EC values that recorded the highest value in Iawai Sheikh Humid well (1158 mg / L) and the lowest in Jalal Farhad Beg well (196 mg / L). It found that the wells and springs water are all suitable for drinking (except Iawaia Sheikh Humid) and that the all wells are located within well category and good and suitable to drink for all kinds of animals. While TA values were ranged between 141 and 298 mg / L within the permitted limits for drinking water. While in regard to the TH ranged between 172 mg / L for Jalal Farhad Beg well and 772 mg / L for Iawaiaa Sheikh Humaid well ,this indicates that all the study water were hard water except Iawaia Sheikh Humaid well ,s water and Aawa Spee River,s water that they are very hard if classified according to the (Boyd) classification, and all of them are very hard with the exception of Jalal Farhad Beg,s water are hard according to the (Todd & Mays) classification, It is clear in the study that all water samples were within the standard limits for Iraqi drinking water with the exception of Iawaia Sheikh Humaid well ,s water that exceeded the suggested boundaries.The Ca hardness results in all waters (except for the Iawaia Sheikh Humaid well and Aawa Spee River) and all of them hn regard to Mg came within the standards for Iraqi drinking water. The results showed that the chloride ion values found within the standard specifications of the water and were within a very good category in terms of suitability for animal consumption and within the category is no problem for irrigation purposes. The concentrations of ion sulphate ranged from 35 mg / L for the Kawalaka spring and 388 mg / L for Iawaia Sheikh Humaid well and they were within the permissible limit for drinking except Iawaia Sheikh Humaid well and it was within very good category in terms of suitability for animal consumption. And the concentration of both sodium and potassium do not exceed the permitted upper limit for drinking. | ||
