Thirty – one wells were selected for this purpose. Quality parameters testssuch as total dissolved solids, total hardness, conductivity, concentration of some anions and cations were all conducted on each sample. The results are compared with criteria and standards issused by international agencies interested in this field. Most of parameters investigated appear to exceed the recommended limit set by standards. The evaluation parameters in this study are temprature, pH, Ec, TDS, Ca+ , Mg+, K+, Na+, Cl¯, SO4¯, TH, BoD, SAR, Na, Table (1). Generally all tested samples were not suitable for domestic and potable purposes . But also the results show the suitability of water for irrigation, building, some industrial and animals uses | ||
