Assessment of the Quality of Water Treated and Distributed By the Akwa Ibom State Water Company

The quality of water treated and distributed by the Akwa Ibom Water Company has been assessed by analyzing samples of water collected from different distribution points for their physiochemical parameters, major ions, nutrients and bacteriological quality. The observed values were compared with stan...
