Abstract EN

Analysis of some Physiochemical Parameters to Evaluate the Drinking Water Quality in al-Qutai wells Hodeida- Yemen.

In this regard, a physical and chemical analysis of drinking water samples was carried out in Al-Qutai from 8 wells.

A pH, turbidity, Electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS),Na, K, Ca, Mg, SO4, NO3, Cl, PO4 and heavy metals such as Cu, Fe, Mn and Cr, were analyzed for each water sample.

The obtained values of each parameter were compared with the standard values set by the World Health Organization WHO Standard and local standards.

50% A water samples have nitrate concentration higher than the maximum limit.

PH, TDS, EC, major and minor ion, are with the permissible limit, However, it is also important to investigate other potential water contaminations such as chemicals and microbial and radiological materials for a longer period of time, including human body fluids, in order to assess the overall water quality of Hodeida government .
