Abstract: 

This academic letter is a field study of ecology's geography treating all aspects, uses after recycling, and factors affecting liquid letters in Nablus City. The study was based on three questionnaires distributed on residential areas, industrial constructions, medical care centers, hospitals, labs, & science research centers. Using Descriptive Statistics Style treated the study, by data entry into SPSS computer program. And the results were as follow:
- The averages of individual’s water consumption in Nablus city show low rates, this thing reflect the quality and concentration of Wastewater. - The Biological Oxygen Demand “BOD" (Pollutant organic) resulting quantities show the highest rates at olive presses. - Economic, social, population, & demographic characteristic somehow affect the quantity of Wastewater.
- There is a clear difference of the Wastewater qualities through the year seasons; organic materials and pollutants are less concentrated at summer, since the average of individual's water consumption is low.
- Small families owning several bathrooms and automatic washers and other sanitary equipment show the highest rates of water consumption.
- Industrial wastewater is considered the most dangerous pollutants of the water sources in the region, and its leakage to groundwater will diminish the reserved quantities of the region.
- Because of the increasing demand and limited water sources, treated wastewater would be one way of meeting current needs. Based on the results the researcher recommended the following:
- Ecology relevant authorities should oblige factories & companies owners to allocate a specified budget for stopping pollution. Industrial, Exhaust, polluted water & slaughterhouses and tannin water should be treated before flowing into the neighbor valleys.
- Spreading ecological awareness among inhabitant specially factories owners threatening the surrounding areas.
- The necessity of separating industrial Wastewater from household litters.
- Obliging factories to construct their own Local Purification stations.
- Pretreatment of harmful industrial products is an essential priority of applying any project.
- Warning inhabitants (especially farmers) ofthe dangerous effects of using untreated sewage water, illustrating the suitable ways of using sewage water.
