Evaluation of seven spring waters in Jizzakh region based on general chemical analysis (Gallaaral, Jizzakh, Uzbekistan)
Abstract
Chemical (oxidation, oxygen demand, Al, CNS, As, Co, Ni, Zn, Cr, Cu, Pb, Mn, Na, K, H 2 S, CO 2 , C (organic matter), total mineralization, B, Br, J, SiO 2 , total hardness, NO 3 -, Cl-, SO 4 2- , HCO 3 - , CO 3 2- , Fe (total), Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ , dry matter, pH, acidity, alkalinity, XPK) and physical (clarity, sedimentation, color level, odor) properties of water samples collected for analysis from 7 water springs (Spring No. 42, Spring No. 43, Spring No. 44, Spring No. 45, Spring No. 46, Spring No. 47, Spring No. 48) and it was investigated (during 2019-2022). The results of laboratory analyzes were evaluated and according to the results, it was proved that the spring water serves as a drinking water, but does not meet the requirements as a healing mineral water.
