Abstract: 

Acinetobacter is a common type of bacteria found in many places in the environment, including water, soil, and sewage. Ten strains of Acinetobacterbaumannii were isolated from Industrial wastewater AlFurat Company in Hilla- Iraq. The Study aimed to evaluate the possible ecological effect of the industrial waste water released from Company. Samples were monthly taken started from June 2014 to December 2014 .

The results showed that properties of industrial wastewater variable due to Sampling different months In addition to sampling of neutral and soda tank . It was found the pH ranged from (6.5 – 11.9 ) (6.5 – 9.9 ) , conductivity reached to (4660- 4280)Ms / cm while the higher concentration of COD, TDS , Cl , SO4 , Ca and Mg were (150- 160 ), ( 2936- 8552) , (4831- 4931) , (593 - 810), (724-757) and (367 - 399) mg/l respectively .

Acinetobacterbaumannii suspected isolate was screening by traditionally tests and then confirmed by Vitek 2 system and PCR technique (rpoBgene). In this study A.baumanniistrains are highly resistance to several antibiotics that was considered as pathogen for human being causing several disease.
