  • Influence of the industrial pollutant on water quality, radioactivity levels, and biological communities in Ismailia Canal, Nile River, Egypt
    Noha Imam, Amr S. El-Shamy, Ghada S. Abdelaziz, Dalia M. Belal
    Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2024
    In the twenty-first century, numerous forms of pollution have adversely impacted freshwater and the entire aquatic ecosystem. The higher population density in urban areas also contributes to increased releases of substances and thermal contaminants, significantly stressing the ecosystem of industrial companies. This study aimed to assess the potential pressure of industrial and municipal activities on water quality, radioactivity levels, and biological diversity, focusing on the consequences of radionuclides on periphytic diatom communities. Furthermore, the environmental impact of pollutants will be evaluated to monitor the ecological condition of the Ismailia Canal. Chemical analyses employed various instruments and methods to identify and quantify matter, with radionuclide elements measured by gamma spectrometry and diatoms counted and identified by inverted microscopy. Our results revealed that the canal was classified as excellent for irrigation, aquatic life, and drinking water based on FAO, CCME, and EWQS water quality indices, with high nutrient levels at Abu Za’baal fertilizer company. The activity concentration of 226Ra-series, 232Th-series, and 40K in the water and sediment samples for two seasons was within the guideline values, except for a few stations in the zone [B] (the industrial zone). Fertilizer samples (raw material) showed a high value of the 226Ra-series activity. Diatom community structure significantly varied across the different canal locations regarding the presence or absence of industrial activities, with no discernible variations between the study seasons. A specific variety of algal species was found to be predominant at the highest radioactive sites. Redundancy analysis (RDA) showed a significant correlation between parameters (pH, Na, TDS, PO4, SO4, SiO2, K, and CO3), radionuclides, environmental conditions, and the composition of the diatom community, especially in the area affected by industrial discharges. Moreover, the radiological hazard index in water and sediment remained below the maximum for two seasons. This research provides valuable data and information for communities and decision-makers, suggesting the strategic use of phycoremediation as a water biotreatment process to protect the valuable economic resources of the Ismailia Canal.

    Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Research, 2024
    Lake eutrophication assessment is a metric that can contribute to increasing the effectiveness of future management strategies to control and reduce lake eutrophication problems. Therefore, this study aims to conduct an integrated assessment of the environmental state of Lake Manzala through chemical and biological indices of the lake eutrophication state (Trophic state index, TSI). Chemical trophic indices generally classify Lake Manzala from mesotrophic to hypertrophic. However, based on the rotifer indices results, the lake ranged between mesotrophic to eutrophic. Results indicated a significant correlation (p < 0.05) between TSI(TN), TSI(TP), TSI (chem) and TSIROT abundance, and TSIROT wet-mass. Moreover, total phosphorus (TP) and total nitrogen (TN) were the most important parameters that influenced on the rotifers, particularly in the east-south sector. The species that had the highest positive correlation with TN and TP were Brachionus quadridentatus, Philodina roseola, Brachionus calyciflorus, Lecane bulla, Keratella cochlearis, and Filinia longiseta. Based on chemical and biological indices, the water quality and ecological status of the northern and middle regions of the lake have relatively improved compared to previous periods due to the dredging and cleansing process that has been ongoing since 2017.
  • Taxonomic and functional diversity of macroinvertebrates in sediment and macrophyte habitats: A case study, the Ibrahimia Canal, Nile River, Egypt
    Reda E. Bendary, Mohamed E. Goher, Amr S. El-Shamy
    Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Research, 2023
    The taxonomic and functional diversities of macroinvertebrates are a critical indicator of ecosystem health. This study focuses on the taxonomic and functional diversities of the assemblage structure of macroinvertebrates in the Ibrahimia Canal, Egypt. They were compared across two different substrate habitats: sediment-associated and macrophytes-associated habitats. Significant variations in the taxonomic and biological trait community composition in the two substrate habitats were recorded, with high taxa abundance in sediment substrate and increased diversity in macrophyte substrate. In sediment substrates, burrow dweller and collector-filterer taxa were the main characteristics, while tube dweller and collector-gatherer were the main traits of macrophytes substrate. The taxonomic and functional indices tended to increase from sediment to macrophytes substrate; however, there was an increase in Rao’s quadratic entropy index (RaoQ) for sediment substrate habitat. Redundancy analyses explained the association between environmental factors and macroinvertebrate taxa and traits. Total suspended solids, dissolved oxygen, chemical demand oxygen, and phosphate were the key environmental drivers of the taxonomic and functional diversities of macroinvertebrates. Integration between the approaches to taxonomic and functional diversity is recommended to give insight into explaining and managing the freshwater ecosystem.
  • Factors Affecting Electrodialysis Unit Performance in the Removal of Copper from Wastewaters and Aquatic Environment Treatment
    Kawthar A. Omran et al.
    Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Biology and Fisheries, 2023
    Wastewater treatment and removal of heavy metals are of great importance, especially in terms of industry, economy, environment and public health. Electrodialysis desalination mode is an effective process for treating metals in contaminated solutions and for further recovery of metals to new uses. In this work, the removal of copper ions from the solution using a recirculating electrodialysis system was studied. Different factors affecting ED performance, such as applied voltage, pH, flow rate, and metal ion concentration on metal removal efficiency, energy consumption, and current efficiency were investigated. The stainless-steel 316 (SS 316) electrode was used as an anode and a cathode and has the advantage of a low corrosion rate. The optimum conditions for 99.59 % removal of 200 mg/L of copper in 60 min are 18 V, pH 4, and a flow rate of 800 ml/min to produce a dilute solution of 0.83 mg/L Cu2+ (<1.3 mg/L), which is within the acceptable limits and suitable for discharges into the environment. Additionally, the current efficiency was 87.78%, the flux was calculated to be 7.84 µmol/m2m, and the energy consumption was 1.73 Wh/L. The study shows that the electrodialysis method can be used efficiently for the removal of copper ions from wastewater.
  • Application of Electrodialysis Desalination Technique of the Red Seawater to Utilize in Aquacultural, Industrial, Agricultural and Municipal Usages
    Kawthar A. Omran et al.
    Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Biology and Fisheries, 2023
    The global shortage of freshwater resources worldwide, particularly in KSA, has tremendously influenced the development of desalination technologies, with electrodialysis desalination (ED) being one of the most well-known and respected techniques. In this study, a module was designed for an experiment on electrodialysis desalination. Under batch mode, operation factors including applied voltage, flow rate and feed concentration were investigated. The optimal operating parameters were 20 V of applied voltage, 200 ml/min of flow rate, and 40000 mg/L of dosage. With a high saline concentration of 40000 mg/L NaCl diluted to 1560 mg/L, the ED achieves a removal efficiency of 97.05% and an energy consumption of 2.03 Wh/L. In Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, where the salinity of the Red Seawater is 42420 mg/L, we utilize these optimal conditions to desalinate the water and produce water with a salinity of 1272 mg/L valid for aquacultural, industrial, agricultural, and municipal usage with a removal efficiency of 97 %, a recovery percentage of 83.33% and an energy usage of 2.03 Wh/L. The RO unit we utilize generates water with a removal efficiency of 97.74%, a recovery percentage of 64% and an energy consumption of 3.2 Wh/L. We observed that the ED unit uses less energy, costs less, and wastes less water when we compared its performance to that of a RO unit. If solar energy is used instead of DC electricity, we can save more money and energy.
  • Water Quality Indices and Risk Assessment of Consumption of Nile Tilapia Tissues from Ismailia Canal, Egypt
    Seliem M. El Sayed et al.
    Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Biology and Fisheries, 2023
    Ismailia Canal is considered one of the most important sources of fresh water for a large number of citizens, yet it is exposed to many sources of pollution. Water and fish samples were collected to study the quality of water as well as the concentration of metals in water, fish tissue, and its effect on humans. Several indices were used to evaluate the water and fish quality of Ismailia Canal water. Based on the weighted arithmetic water quality index (WAWQI) results, the canal water was classified as excellent for drinking, aquatic life and irrigation. While the study of Metal Index (MI) showed that the water of the Ismailia Canal is polluted for drinking water and aquatic life while it is not polluted for Irrigation water, as well as the resultant contamination index (Cd) values ranged between low (Cd < 1) to high (Cd > 3) in the station ( 1) due to the effluent of drainage water treatment plants which throwing waste water rich with Aluminum, Iron and Manganese. Aquatic Toxicity Index (ATI) results indicate the suitability of the canal’s water for different fish species. Hazard Index (HI) and Hazard Quotient (HQ) indicate that no risk (HQ < 1) on the other hand (HI) is 1.538. This result revealed the moderate risks from the consumption of edible tissue of the Nile Tilapia (O. niloticus). For improvement of water quality in Ismailia canal, the dumping of pollutants of all kinds, industrial, agricultural and domestic, into the waters of the Ismailia Canal must be prohibited and criminalized.

    Alaa E. Amin, Mohamed E. Goher, Amr S. El-Shamy, Abdel-Wahed S. Abdel-Wahed
    Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Biology and Fisheries, 2020
    This study deals with new modified chitosan beads with pendent amidoxime moieties [chitosan amidoxime chelating resin (CACR)] prepared by reaction of cross-linking chitosan beads with acrylonitrile and hydroxylamine. The resulting (CACR) resin was characterized using Fourier transform infrared, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, Scanning Electron Microscopy and BET surface area. To remove lead ions from aqueous solution the study was carried out under several variables include the initial concentration (50-250 mg/L), the amount of CACR (1-5 g/L), contact time (10-300 min) and the pH value (1.5-3.5) to indicate the removal efficiency of the (CACR). Glutaraldehyde. The batch experiment cited that the maximum adsorption efficiency of 55.5 mg/g was recorded at the optimum conditions of pH 3, 200 mg/L of Pb ions concentration and contact time 120min. using 2 g/L of [CACR]. The adsorption of lead ions with [CACR] follows the pseudo-second-order kinetics. The adsorption process was fitted to Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms models with slight advantage for the Langmuir approach.
