Application of Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment Water Quality Index (CCME WQI) to Evaluate Tap Water Quality in Babylon Governorate
Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Engineering and Technology - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 11
Abstract
Abstract:This study conducted to assess water quality by using Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment Water Quality Index (CCME WQI). Study area involves four districts (Almusayab, Almahaweel, Almuharibeen and Aljamiyaa) located in Babylon governorate. Samples collected during three months starting from January 2016 until March 2016 and analyzed for many physical and chemical properties included PH, Calcium (Ca), chloride (Cl), total Hardness (TH), sulfate (SO4), total dissolved solid (TDS) and magnesium (Mg). The calculated values of CCME WQI showed that the water quality of study area in four districts (Almusayab, Almahaweel, Almuharibeen and Aljamiyaa) were good according to CCME WQI classification during study period and measured values of chemical and physical properties were within Iraqi standards. Keywords:CCME WQI, water quality index
