Abstract

The Nile River is an important natural and exclusive source of fresh water in Egypt. Water samples were taken monthly from twelve sites from 2015 to 2020 in El Beheira Governorate and eighteen physicochemical parameters were measured. The results show that the Rahawy drain recorded the highest values for most of the physicochemical parameters. The HPI and MI indicators in Rahawy drain were higher (70 % & 100 %) than in other sites, especially in the summer and winter seasons. The Rahawy WQI values were classified as poor quality. The IWQI results indicate that the water quality for the Rahawy was within the "severe restriction" class, with many restrictions to be used in agriculture. The water quality of the Nile River in the south of Egypt is better than that of the north and the water quality recovery takes more time and distance.

埃及尼罗河污染及水质指标研究

尼罗河是埃及重要的天然和唯一的淡水来源。从2015年到2020年，在El Beheira省的12个地点每月采集水样，并测量了18个物理化学参数。结果表明，Rahawy排水沟的大部分理化参数均最高。Rahawy排水口的HPI和MI指标高于其他地点(70%和100%)，特别是在夏季和冬季。Rahawy WQI值被归类为质量差。IWQI结果表明，拉哈维河的水质处于“严重限制”级，许多限制用于农业。埃及南部的尼罗河水质比北部好，水质恢复需要更长的时间和距离。
