It is located 32.516 latitude and 45.847 longitudes, and it is situated at elevation 22 meters above sea level. Four sewage treatment plants stations were selected in Al-Kut City, Bimonthly sampling was carried out from January 2018 till December 2018; two samples were taken each month. Station one was AL-zahraa plants. The second station was Dawr aleummal plants, the third station is Aleiza plants and the four stations is ALfalahia plants. In the present study twenty-eight physical and chemical parameters were selected on the importance of these parameters. These parameters are ranged as follows: COD 98 to 360 mg/L, water temperature 13.3 to 34 ºC, EC 1337 to 3800 µS/cm H2S 9 to 81 mg/L, TDS 800 to 2450 g/L, NO2 = ND to 0.9 mg/L ,TSS 40 to 560 mg/L, pH 7 to 8.1 , NH3 22 to 95 mg/L، BOD5 53 to 318 mg/L، Cl- 153 to 447 mg/L, Sulfate 125 to 987 mg/L, NO3 -2 ND to 9 mg/L PO4 -2 ND to 19.5 mg/L. Concluded from the current study, all wastewater treatment has a direct impact on the water characteristics of the Tigris River.
