SEARCH AND STUDY OF TREATMENT SPRING WATER: A CASE STUDY OF GALLAARAL IN JIZZAKH, UZBEKISTAN

Abstract

This study is based on the analysis of the physicochemical analysis of water sources (34 sources) in the Gallaaral district of the Jizzakh region, the purpose of which is to determine the presence of mineral springs useful for the human health in this area. The results of the chemical analysis of the springs are compared with the main criteria (requirements) of mineral waters of Uzbekistan as mineral treatment waters. According to the comparison results, none of the 34 springs investigated in the Gallaaral district has a content of medical mineral water. However, it was found that the content of iodine, organic substances, silicon and its compounds in the water of the Tamchibulak, Saad ibn Wakkas, Ugat 4 springs are close to the criteria. In future studies, the chemical analysis of these springs will be studied more deeply.
