Abstract
Hydrogeochemical assessment have been carried out to study the concentration ofNa+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Cl,SO4 2-, HCO3 -, 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.
Highlights
In all solution environments bare metal ions are in continuous search of a partner
Table (1) and,the results showed hightemperature in all springs
Sudan has been obtained in this study
Summary
In all solution environments bare metal ions are in continuous search of a partner. The environment of interest is water where in all metals; cations are hydrated to form aquo complexes (CohenShanes,2001).Water analysis is very challenging due to the low concentrations of elements so they are susceptible to enter element interference and matrix effect In all solution environments bare metal ions are in continuous search of a partner. The environment of interest is water where in all metals; cations are hydrated to form aquo complexes There are some 1.5 × 109 km of water on the surface of the Earth. Of this 98.3 per centis in the oceans/seas and 1.6 per cent in the form of ice. The remaining 0.1 per cent exists as groundwater and in lakes and rivers. The remaining 0.1 per cent exists as groundwater and in lakes and rivers All of this water, and the water used, has been a part of the natural water cycle, or global hydrological cycle, at some time
