Abstract | ||||
Potable water is a necessity for safe and better quality. In Egypt, this is no exception, and consequently, this study investigated the physico-chemical properties of raw, and treated water in Shebin El-Kom Water Treatment Plant. As indicated, here in this study, a number of parameters, namely Ammonia, Nitrates, and Chlorides, were observed to occur in water after treatment. Furthermore, Chlorides, Iron, Nitrites, TDS, Mn, and Mg, might occur in treated water at certain times of the year. Those parameters proved to be indicator for physico-chemical characteristics. Accordingly, a recommendation is presented. | ||||
