Abstract

The study focused on the ability of Al-Diwaniya treated wastewater plant, and the (water of Almasab Alam) for irrigation and growth Jatropha plant, and it´s effect on soil characteristics, and the heavy metal content of soil and plant. The experiment comprised four treatments in a plastic plots, with Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) and four replicates, 1st treatment was control, which irrigated with river, 2nd with wastewater of Diwanya plant, 3rd with (water Almasab Alam), and 4th with mix of wastewater and (water Almasab Alam) in the rate 1:1. The experiment continued for 180 days. Results illustrated a significant differential in shows the length and the growth when used wastewater treatment only and treatment of mixed with the water of Almasab Alam as comparison with control and the water of Almasab Alam treatment. Results confirmed a significant difference of Ec value of soil in treatment of used the water of Almasab Alam comparison with all treatments. Results indicated a significant reduction of soil pH with 2nd treatment comparison to control. Results confirmed significant differential of the all heavy metal in soil and plant with 2nd, 3rd treatments comparison to control, however all the heavy metal did not exceed toxic limitation in soil and plant.
