The methods of quality control are widely used in controlling any strategy—the widely used control charts. A traditional variable control chart includes three lines: the Centre Line (CL), the Upper Control Limit (UCL), and the Lower Control Limit (LCL), all of which are represented by numeric values—represented by numeric values. A control chart illustrates the centerline of the average value of the quality feature under investigation. \u0000Depending on numeric observation values, a process is either \"in control\" or \"out of control.\" \u0000 Considering the current, there are no questions regarding the observations and their values during the production process. However, when these observations include human judgments, assessments, and choices, a continuous random variable (xi) of a manufacturing process should be made up of the variable. \u0000The MEWMA and Mahalanobis distance control chart techniques are used when more than one variable is involved. \u0000This paper aims to compare the MEWMA and Mahalanobis distance chart for three compounds for water drinking production in the ALA -Factory in the Sulaimani-Iraq region. \u0000So, linguistic terms can be used instead of the exact value of the continuous random variable. Today, quality control has become one of the most essential techniques for studying all variables to control production or consumption decision factors. Quality control's primary aim is to guarantee that the goods, services, or processes delivered satisfy particular standards and are reliable and satisfactory. The factor's direct approach is based on the product's quality.","PeriodicalId":17866,"journal":{"name":"Kurdistan Journal of Applied Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47208864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Potassium (K) adsorption isotherms were achieved by equilibrating 5.0 g of soil samples with eight grades of K (0 to 300 mg L-1) as KCl in 50 ml of 0.01M CaCl2 solution. To match the data of adsorption, Freundlich, Langmuir, and Temkin adsorption isotherms were used. The results show that the amount of adsorbed K ranged between (45.78 to 52.49) % added K. The Freundlich model fit the equilibrium K adsorption data better for the Serwan location of soil (silty loam), as demonstrated by a greater coefficient of determination (R2 =0.90). The value of heterogeneity factor 1/n for the Freundlich model ranged from (0.34 to 0.47) kg mg-1, which was less than one. The sorption processes for all of the studied soils were normal adsorption. The constant of the Langmuir isotherm (KL) aligned from (0.107 to o.425) L mg-1. Smaller KL values mean that more adsorbed K would be transformed to a non-exchangeable form, either through the creation of crystalline K or through ion occultation.
