THE EFFECT OF WASTEWATER DISPOSAL FROM BALCK WELLS ON UNCONFINED AQUIFER AT AL-HATHBA AL-KHATHRA DISTRICT
Agamy, Ahmed; Al Mabrouk A. Sanoussi;
Abstract
In this paper, we present the results of an experimental study of the effect of dissolved
chemical pollutants existing in the wastewater from black wells on drinking water wells
which drilled in unconfined aquifers. We observe the transport of pollutant from black wells
to drinking water wells drilled in the area by collecting of several samples from drinking
water well. The period between each two samples were 6 days and chemical analysis for
collected water samples have been done in the laboratory. An investigation to the variation
with time in the concentration of dissolved substance in black water well.
It was found that the concentration of dissolved pollutants in pumping wells increases
gradually with time till reaches the maximum level of concentration as that at the source of
pollution (the black well), and it is not acceptable for drinking or use in the domestic purpose.
Also it, was found that the degree of pollution of the pumping wells depends on the distance
between the black well and pumping well and on the type of soil, also the pumping well in
study area is not polluted by seawater intrusion because the typical seawater has a salinity of
about 3500 p.p.m.
