Environmental Assessment of the Quality of Water and the Hydrochemical Formula Used for Some Groundwater Wells in Karbala Governorate

The ground water in the study area is classifed according to the total dissolved solids it is concluded that the water in the type is brackish water. The electrical conductivity in water of the study area is Excessively Mineralized Water. The study found that there is an increase in the concentrations of positive and negative different ions such as calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, sulfate, chloride, carbonates, bicarbonates and nitrates due to natural and anthropogenic¹. The Hydro chemical Formula and Water Type is the quality of the prevailing water is NaSO₄-in the wells of the study area. The study found that when comparing the results of the research with the global measurements, the water type is not suitable for human consumption. Regarding the drinking of animals, it is found that it is suitable for consumption. When compared to industrial use, it was found to be unft for industry. As for the construction found useful for use. Their use to irrigate irrigation is not useful.
