Abstract:

 

This study was conducted to demonstrate the
efficiency of wastewater treatment plants in Baghdad. Al-Rustamiyah and
Al-Karkh wastewater plants were chosen for this purpose. Several  critical parameters (DO, BOD5,
COD, TSS,TDS and Nutrients) were selected for the study of the efficiency of
each plant and its impact on the river water (Tigris River). Water samples were collected from different
locations (two samples from each location) for each unit, during the months of
February and June of 2015. It was observed that the level of efficiency of the
stations below the required level for several reasons, the most important
factor was lying on the 1st stage, which failed to withdraw TSS and
TDS, which caused  stagger to the rest of
the stages.  Also the
amount of water entering the plant more than the designed capacity, leading to
discharge of untreated water directly into the river without treatment.
