The concept of water quality mainly depends on the chemical, physical, biological, and radiological measurement standards to evaluate the water quality and determine the concentration of all components and additives and then compare the results of this concentration with the purpose for which this water is used. It is worth noting that distilled water is one of the purest and good forms of water, but it is not suitable for all vital purposes and is considered an inappropriate environment for many living organisms. Therefore, measuring the quality of water depends on the purpose used for it. While the waters of the seas and oceans are characterized by their high quality concerning many types of fish, they are not suitable for some other organisms, as is the water used for industrial purposes. This chapter examines how to reach the best standard for measuring water quality. Water is one of the main elements of life and life cannot continue without water. Therefore, it is necessary to know the water chemistry and biology to find the best suitable methods for treatment and reduce water pollution to make it suitable for personal, industrial, or agricultural use. This chapter will also address the quantitative analysis of water, its quality, benefits, and future development. Applied Water Science Volume 1: Fundamentals and Applications RelatedInformation
