The study included evaluating the sewage estuaries that are discharged into the Tigris River within the city of Mosul without prior treatment according to the Iraqi specifications and diagnosing the bacterial community that may exist in them using the latest international technologies.

The study aimed to evaluate the physicochemical properties of some valleys and sewage estuaries in the city of Mosul and study the seasonal impact on the change in the properties of the water of these valleys and estuaries.

The study recommended conducting environmental studies on aquatic organisms in the Tigris River within the city of Mosul and using them as a vital tool to determine whether or not the river is polluted, as well as conducting environmental studies at the points where the outlets meet the Tigris River within the city of Mosul and determining their suitability for the coexistence of aquatic organisms, while continuously monitoring the quality of sewage wastewater and conducting extensive diagnostic studies on the bacterial community that may exist in sewage wastewater in the city of Mosul.
