| Abstract | ||
| The research studied physical and chemical water of Sobashi spring in Talafar to evaluate this water for different usages, due to the lack of permanent surface water and decreasing of ground water level as a result of dry seasons estimation of some heavy metals (Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd) for phragmites australis L., showed that: 1- The Sobashi spring water is very hard due to the high percentage of calcium and magnesium (2144-2682)(161-560) respectively, so its alkalinity where its pH is (8), analyses also revealed that this water is unsuitable for drinking according to (WHO) classifications, but it is possible to be used for agriculture. 2- Results of heavy elements in the water showed that the highest values for these elements were in Site 3 in January as reached (72, 22, 18, 0.9) elements (Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd) respectively as a result of sewage water in Sobashi spring water at this point. 3- Bioaccumulation of heavy metals of phragmites australis roots higher than Sorghum halepense L. and Imperata cylindrical plant roots. It is higher of then the rest of the plant tissues (stem, leaves, flowers). the order of contents of metal in these plants are as follows: Cd Keywords Physical and chemical characteristics --- heavy elements --- phytoremediation --- Sobashi spring water --- الصفات الفيزيائية والكيميائية، العناصر الثقيلة، المعالجة النباتية، عين صوباشي | ||
