MORAD MOHAMMAD ABO-ALESAAD ABUGHAMJA;
Abstract
The present investigation was carried out to evaluate water quality
of Qarun lake reused for aquatic life and irrigating some soils of Fayoum
Governorate. Use geographic information systems (GIS) was applied to
investigate the effect of time on Qarun lake degradation. Moreover,
certain amendments namely, zeolite and bentonite, enormously abundant
natural clay as well as, chitosan, and biochar as natural organic wastes
were evaluated through following up the incident changes in the some
water characteristics. The obtained results could be summarized in the
following points.
Assessment of water characteristics of Qarun lake.
1- The pH value of Qarun lake ranged from 8.38 to 8.58. The highest
value was recorded in the sample taken in 2014 far from the
discharge point. Whereas, the lowest one was in 2017 and in the
point near the discharge point due to increase of organic matter in
of Qarun lake reused for aquatic life and irrigating some soils of Fayoum
Governorate. Use geographic information systems (GIS) was applied to
