Surface water quality analyzes in the Tessala mountain water table (Attouche, Tafaksite and Merice), wilaya of Sidi Bel Abbes, Algeria

Water is today threatened by pollution because of such degradation of water resources. Knowledge of water quality is an essential condition for establishing a management system that will help to secure water supply in the future. Our research consists first of all to determine the water quality of Mount Tessala, based on physicochemical and bacteriological analyzes of the water from three surface sources, (Attouche, Tafaksite and Merice). We have studied the effect of some physicochemical parameters, which are mainly: temperature, pH, electrical conductivity, TDS, salinity and turbidity; as well as the bacteriological parameters, which are based on the detection and enumeration of total germs (total coliforms, E-coli, and fecal streptococci).
