Study of some physicochemical and bacteriological properties for Produce Water of the Vortisand unit
Journal Title: Haya: The Saudi Journal of Life Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 5
Abstract
Abstract: The efficiency of the vortisand unit was tested on water treatment to produce water suitable for different purposes. Its efficiency was recorded in improving some of the physicochemical properties of raw water and the produced water and compared to Iraqi specifications. Samples were collected regularly from both raw and produced water during the months of December 2016and January and May and June2017. Both physical and chemical properties, including pH, Electricalconductivity μs \cm, Temperature °C, Turbidity NTU, Dissolved Oxygen mg\L ,Total Dissolved Solid mg\L and Total Suspended Solid mg\L were examined as well as Total plate count CFU \ ml and Total coliform cell\100ml.The results of the pH produced by the unit of vortisand showed that they were located within the weak base side, ranging from 7.3 to 7.93. The temperature of the produced water ranged from 9.66 to 30.5 while turbidity decreased from 343.33 to 2.88 NTU .The rates of electrical conductivity within the permissible limits, with the highest value of water produced 1026.66. While there was no good reduction in the number of total plate count and coliform bacteria with high soluble solids values. Keywords: vortisand unit, raw water, cold month, bacteria, turbidity , Iraqi standard.
