Abstract The water quality index (WQI) model is a popular tool for evaluating surface quality. It uses aggregation techniques that allow conversion of extensive data into single value or index. Globally, the WQI has been applied to evaluate (surface and groundwater) based on local criteria. Since its development in 1960s, it become due generalised structure ease-of-use. Commonly, models involve...

Surface water quality is degraded due to industrialization; however, it one of the widely used sources for supply systems worldwide. Thus, polluted creates significant issues health end users. However, poor attention and concern can be identified on this important issue in most developing countries, including Sri Lanka. The Kelani River Lanka heart whole Colombo area has intake drinking purpose...

The quality of drinking water is an extremely important factor in public health. main sources the Kingdom Saudi Arabia (KSA) are bottled water, purified groundwater, and desalinated seawater. This study aimed to assess evaluate performance purification plants Al-Hassa with aid index (WQI). A total 150 samples were collected from 30 plants. physiochemical characteristics including pH, TDS, EC, t...

The present study was carried out near an industrial area with a high-density urban population and large-scale agricultural activities. These anthropogenic activities lead to groundwater pollution depletion of the water table. This attempted classify sources hydrochemical facies that help ensure suitability for agriculture drinking. Irrigation indexes, quality index (WQI), principal component a...

In this study water quality was indicated in terms of Water Quality Index that determined through summarizing multiple parameters test results. This index offers a useful representation the overall for public or any intended use as well indicating pollution, which are management and decision making. The application (WQI) with ten physicochemical performed to evaluate Euphrates River drinking us...

Chronic kidney disease with uncertain etiology (CKDu) is an emerging health problem in Sri Lanka, particularly among the dry-zone farming communities that use groundwater for drinking. We investigated quality of area where both high- and low-prevalence clusters CKDu have been recorded. Eighty-four five surface water samples, covering selected region, were collected analyzed major anions cations...

The problem of water scarcity and clean in sub-Saharan Africa is a growing concern. This study aims to quantify the quality on temporal scale Doorndraai dam site design possible management options. Here, an integrated approach using both in-situ measurements parameters remote sensing data was used derive index (WQI) inherent optical properties deduce factors governing seasonal annual variabilit...

Abstract In this study, ten water treatment plants were evaluated for quality drinking by using the Canadian Council of Ministers Environment Water Quality Index (CCME WQI).The main Jubyla(1), Khor Al Zubair, Al-Shaibah, AlmahkalAljadeed, Hay Al-Hussain, Asmaei, Garma(1), Abass, Madena Riadia, and Mhaijran. These in different places Basrah province supply most needed citizens city. The samples ...

Abstract Clean and safe water is vital for human health, whether it used drinking purpose, food production or domestic use. The aims of study are to investigate raw quality parameters analysed Water Quality Index (WQI) at Timah Tasoh Dam. research also analyses the treated Treatment Plant, Kampung Belukar, Kechor Taman Bukit Kaya, then compared National Standard Drinking (NSDWQ) World Health Or...
