English Abstract

In this research, the possibility of water treatment for agricultural irrigation drainage channels was studied included Al-Dawoodi main agriculture irrigation water channel and the KSD main agriculture irrigation water channel polluted with the sewage water.

The treatment was carried out using multi-media filtration technology with (three-layer) (commercial coal, coarse sand and mix ion exchange) at three flow rates (0.24, 0.32, 0.48) m³/hr for contact time (two hours), the comparing of analysis results before and after treatment showed that the best removal for both channels was obtained from the lowest flow rate (0.24 m³/hr) after contact time (two hours) for (EC, TDS, TSS, COD, BOD5, heavy metals (Na, Mg, Ca, Cl, So4)) as KSD water channel by (67% , 61.1% , 95.2% , 82.6% , 81% , 65.2% , 73.3 % , 62% , 58.2% , 62.2% ), respectively, and for Al- Dawoodi water channel by (60% , 50.2% , 94.1% , 84.4% , 85.1% , 61% , 60% , 63% , 56% , 58% ), respectively, also improves the SAR while pH before and after treatment was within Irrigation standards.

Then the results were compared with the internationally approved standards for In this research, the possibility of water treatment for agricultural irrigation drainage channels was studied included Al-Dawoodi main agriculture irrigation water channel and the KSD main agriculture irrigation water channel polluted with the sewage water.

Then the results were compared with the internationally approved standards for irrigation.
