The Environmental Research Center continues to provide training lectures for students of the College of Environmental Sciences and Technologies
In line with the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Goal 4 (Quality Education), the Environmental Research Center at the University of Mosul continues to provide scientific lectures as part of the summer training program for students of the College of Environmental Sciences and Technologies on Tuesday, July 8, 2025, in the center’s laboratories.
The lecture was delivered by Assistant Lecturer Reem Nawzat Ahmed.
The lecture covered a set of procedures and steps used in analyzing and testing water quality, and determining its suitability for human, industrial, and agricultural uses. This contributes to ensuring the provision of safe and suitable water for drinking and general use.
The lecture addressed several chemical tests for water, focusing on the topic of “hardness” in its various types and degrees, and its health effects. It also provided a brief explanation of the presence of sodium ions in water and its various effects.
This was followed by a practical explanation given by Mr. Mohammed Qasim and Ms. Aisha Moaz, which included testing total hardness and calcium hardness in water samples taken from wells and tap water, with the aim of clarifying the differences and analyzing the results practically in the laboratory.
