The research study focused on measuring turbidity in a section of the Tigris River that passes in the left coast from the Sherqat district and assessing the efficiency of both the sedimentation and filtration processes in addition to the overall efficiency of removing turbidity. The results of the research for the current study showed that the turbidity values of the raw Tigris River ranged between (65-6) NTU, and the lowest degree of turbidity was recorded in October of 2019 due to the low level of the river and the lack of swimming in the river and the lack of rain and that the highest value of turbidity was recorded in April of the same year as a result of the high level of the river due to the flooding of the Tigris River, which carried with it A large amount of clay, colloids, and rain. And that the efficiency of the sedimentation unit was fluctuating from month to month and in general the efficiency was low in most months as it ranged between (13.33-48.71%) and the efficiency of the filtration process was also fluctuating from month to month and less than the efficiency of the precipitation process as it ranged between (6.66-44.44%) while The overall efficiency of the project ranged between (31.66-69.23%).
