Abstract |
: |
The groundwater quality is determined in three villages that lie in the northeast of
Jeddah city, Saudi Arabia, and they are the only source of drinking water in this area.
Fifteen groundwater samples are selected from each village and various quality
parameters are measured including pH, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids,
total hardness as well as calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride,
bicarbonate and sulfate concentrations.
A systematic calculation of correlation coefficient is performed among these
parameters. The chemical analyses of groundwater samples show considerable
variations, and also most of the samples do not comply with WHO standards for the
parameters measured.
Overall the water quality is found to be not suitable for drinking purposes without any
prior treatment except at nine locations out of forty four samples |
