The Hydrochemical Characteristics of Drinking Water in Central Settlements of Sukhbaatar Province, Eastern Mongolia †
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Materials and Methods
3. Results and Discussion
4. Conclusions
- The Na-HCO3 type represents 46.8% of the total samples;
- In total, the drinking water in 11 soums does not meet drinking water standards regarding fluoride ion out of 13 soums, with Dariganga soum water being less than the standard, and Munkhkhaan soum being suitable;
- Magnesium, fluoride, uranium, and nitrate were among the elements found higher than the standard, and the worst water soum was Baruun-Urt.
