Water quality and safety assessment has become essential in water resource studies. Water is an important substance in all aspects of life. Therefore, it must have beneficial compositions and ensure sustainable purity. Water quality monitoring is essential for the protection of public health. Sediments and pollutants in water could harm the organisms in the water body. Polluted water is a complex global problem affecting human and animal health, agriculture, and industry. Water could be affected and contaminated by toxic elements. Toxic element pollution is a serious environmental problem and a hazard that can be monitored in water. Technologies were developed to assess the essential and toxic elements in water. Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrophotometry (ICP-AES) has been used to analyze water and determine water quality. The results show the total concentration of all elements: 0.001-0.0042, 0.0095-0.004, 0.0066-0.0042, and 0.0923-0.078 mg/L for mercury, arsenic, cadmium, and lead, respectively. Physical and chemical properties of water samples, such as pH, salinity, TDS, EC, turbidity, and DO, were measured.
