Abstract
The research is a study of some physical and chemical characteristics of three water purification stations in Baladruze District , Diala Governorate, which are supplied with water from Al-Ruze river a branch of Diala river ,The samples of the study are taken from the surface monthly from January to December 2009, the results shows that the (pH) concentration values are in the weak alkaline above the equivalent ratio of the (pH) for all the stations during all the months of the year , the results also show that the water studies samples contain salt ratio within the permitted ratios for drinking water in the most months of the year , New Baladruze station recorded the lower ratio (235 ) ppm compared with the two other stations, whereas the Old Baladruze station recorded the higher ratio in January (320 ) ppm , the electrical conductivity measures show that it increase with the increasing the quantity of total dissolved solids in the water ,the ratio of dissolved oxygen approximate values (8-12) ppm during the year ,the results of total hardness of water show that the studied water samples were within the degree of hard water for the most months of the year , Baladruze water station (Million Gallon) recorded less ratio of Total Hardness (164.3) ppm ,the magnesium and calcium concentration ratio showed that the high ratio of calcium is ( 71.4 ) ppm in Baladruze station (Million Gallon ) , and the low ratio was in New Baladruze water station (38.9 ) ppm , magnesium concentration values for all the months of the year was universal for calcium concentration ratios in all the stations , as for water turbidity was between in congruent in some months it recorded ( Turbidity > 5 NTU) and congruent with the permitted qualifications for most months of the year in all water purification stations .
