The current study dealt with the impact of the wastes of the Danfali Valley, located on the left side of the Tigris River, on the quality of the water of this river, which is considered the only surface resource for the residents of the city of Mosul, and evaluated the quality of this valley’s water for drinking purposes using the Canadian Water Quality Guide. Monthly samples were collected from the water of this valley and were conducted on it. Many physical and chemical tests, in addition to performing a total bacterial count and diagnosing the bacterial species present, were conducted. The results of this study showed noticeable differences in the values and concentrations of the measured variables between the two sites. At the first site, the highest values recorded were: pH 9.4, turbidity 33.84 NTU, electrical conductivity (EC) 1093μS/ cm, total dissolved salts 587mg/ L, and total hardness 300mg/ L as CaCO₃. At the second site, the corresponding values were slightly different: pH 8.9, turbidity 39.22 NTU, EC 1103μS/ cm, total dissolved salts 480mg/ L, and total hardness 258mg/ L. While the concentrations of orthophosphate and nitrate also reached 0.58 and 0.63mg/ l in the water of the first site, while in the second site their concentrations reached 0.66 and 0.78, respectively. While the results of the Canadian Water Quality Guide showed that the water of the first site was of a questionable type in terms of its use for drinking compared to the water of the second site, since it was of a poor quality and both were unfit for drinking.

Assessment the quality number of well water on the left side of the city of Mosul Iraq and its suitability for drinking using the Canadian water quality index

The current study was conducted on 10 wells of water located within the city of Mosul / on the left side. The quality of this water was evaluated to determine the number of physical and chemical properties, including acidity, turbidity, total dissolved salts, total alkalinity, nitrates, chlorides, phosphates, calcium, magnesium, and sulfates. The current study showed that the values of total dissolved solids and sulfate rates for well water ranged between 155-1150 mg/L, and 226- 1037mg/L, respectively, and the acidity function rates ranged between 7-7.6, which are within The appropriate determinants of drinking according to the specifications of the World Health Organization, while the average values of turbidity ranged between 0.5-21 N.T.U, and the nature of the geological formations of the study area had an impact on the concentration of calcium and magnesium, as well as the chlorides and total alkalinity where the concentration rate ranged Between 29-325, 16-89, 20-259 and 179-366 mg/L, respectively. The results of the current study showed that wells water for drinking purposes, according to the Canadian Water Quality Index (CWQI), varied between (doubtful-good).
