, and other parameters like temperature, pH, electric conductivity (EC), total hardness(T.H) and total dissolved solid (TDS) in ten hot springs water samples of some parts of Jebel Mara Mountain, Western Sudan. The results of water analysis revealed theaverage values of pH,electrical conductivity, total dissolved solidsand total hardness, 9.46, 428 µS/cm, 667.2 mg/l and 102 mg/l respectively. The pH, TDS and EC variations confirmed light-salty nature of groundwater. It is also apparent from the results that, average concentrations of sodium, potassium, calcium,magnesium, chloride, sulphate,and bicarbonate ionswere 43.6, 16.4, 53.7, 44, 37.5, 26.2, 428.5 mg/l, respectively. Chloride ion concentration ranged from (30 to 46 mg/l), sulphate ion concentration ranged from (10 to 40mg/l) and carbonate concentration measured ranged from (215 to 800 mg/l).The results were found to be above the recommended values given by W.H.O., 1984) and warranty further recommended studies for the best improvement and utilization of springs water.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
