EFFECT OF INCREASING DISCHARGE ON WATER QUALITY: A CASE STUDY
Journal Title: ASIAN JOURNAL OF NATURAL & APPLIED SCIENCES - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
In Egypt, River Nile is the main source of water for drinking purposes, domestic, irrigation and industry. Unfortunately, in spite of this vital role of the River Nile, a variety of wastes coming from sanitary drainage (sewage), industrial discharge from factories located on its shores as well as soil run–off have a considerable potential effect on its water quality. Of most concern are those pollutants that can cause injury substances or disease outbreak specifically, pathogenic or parasitic organisms and toxic. This study is devoted to achieve the following objectives: i) Measure physio–chemical characteristics of the different pollution sources along Rosetta Branch, ii) Assess the environmental impact of wastewater discharge on water quality of Rosetta branch taking into consideration seasonal variations, iii) To apply water quality SOBEK model and to recommend suitable method for the treatment of wastewater discharging from five drains to propose different scenarios and control the pollution along Rosetta branch.
