ABSTRACT
Background and Objectives: Corrosion and sedimentation potential is one of the main factors in
water quality control issues. Water tendency towards each of them, can be play very effective
role in the transmission and distribution of drinking water in terms of economic and health
aspects. The purpose of this study was evaluation of chemical quality, corrosive and
sedimentation rate of drinking water in Ardabil water supply network and providing relevant
solutions for probable problems.
Methods: In a cross-sectional research conducted in autumn 2009, the city was divided into 12
blocks and water samples were taken in two instances (in the first half of October and the second
half of December). Parameters of alkali, calcium hardness, electrical conductivity, temperature
and pH were determined. Water samples were handled according to standard procedures, and
corrosion and sedimentation potential were estimated using indicators Lanzhlyh (LSI) and
Rayznr (RSI) .
Results: The results of tests and calculations showed that the respective value for average of LSI
index in the first and 2nd stage of water sampling was -0.23 and -0.46, and the average for RSI
index in the first and 2nd stage of sampling was 7.98 and 8.24, respectively. Based on LSI index,
drinking water in the water supply system has a tendency to corrosion in 9 and 12 stations in the
first and second sampling campaigns, respectively; with the other stations tending to have
sedimentation. However, according to RSI index six stations had tendency to corrosion and
others was balanced in the first samples. For the second samples, ten stations tend to have
corrosive property and the others had conditions of relative equilibrium.
Conclusion: Based on the results obtained, water in Ardabil drinking water supply have slight
tendency to corrosion and water quality must be controlled for the relevant parameters e.g. pH,
alkali, and hardness. Application of corrosion-resistant pipes and materials should be considered
in drinking water networks.
