Abstract:
: The general objective of this research is to characterize the physicochemical quality of the waters of the Gbangban River, for irrigation purposes in the urban commune of Kissidougou. The work was carried out in the period from 08 January 2021 to 20 February 2021. The analyses focused on the determination of the following physical and chemical parameters: pH; temperature; turbidity; electrical conductivity; dissolved totals; nitrites and nitrates. During the months of January, February and March, nine (9) water samples were taken from the 1.5 liter bottles. The samples taken are sent to SNAPE's laboratory in N'Zérékoré for analysis. Physicochemical analyses have yielded the following results: the turbidity content varies from 52NTU to 189NTU, the conductivity of the water varies from 87?g/l to 115?g/l; the temperature varies from 25°C to 34.6°C, the pH varies between 6.5 and 7.4, the nitrite contents vary from 0.02mg/l to 0.07mg/l, nitrate values range from 5.19mg/l to 38.25mg/l and finally, solid totals vary between 38.6 mg/l and 109 mg/l. According to the results of the analyzes obtained, we can confirm that the waters of the Gbangban River are of good quality for irrigation and comply with acceptable standards for agriculture.
