Management of physical and chemical water quality in Kotchener drain (Kafr El Sheikh, Egypt) (original) (raw)
Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering
Abstract
Minimization of freshwater consumption is very important in the management of water quality in drainage systems. In this paper, a mathematical technique for mass integration in drain systems was proposed. The main objective of this work is to manage the water quality in Kotchener drain (El‐Gharbia main drain) by chasing the physical and chemical parameters at sources and sinks. Kotchener drain is one of the largest drains in the Nile delta which moves from south of Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea in the north direction. Firstly, the data were collected from the studied area for 2 years along the Kotchener drain area. This was achieved by monthly monitoring five parameters of six sources sites and five sinks' sites. The results reveal that the concentration of the sources parameters in catchment area are within the permissible limits, except major constituents of total dissolved solid (TDS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and biological oxygen demand (BOD). According to the degree ...
