  • 5.3 Water Environment
    5.3 Water Environment (1) Scarcity and Degradation of Freshwater in Egypt The water resources of Egypt could be divided into two systems; the Nile system and the groundwater system in desert area. The Nile system consisting of the Nile River, its branches, the irrigation canals, the agricultural drains and the valley and Delta aquifers. These water resources are interconnected. This system is replenished yearly with approximately 58.5 billion m3 of freshwater, as is given in the survey by MWRI. Egypt depends on the Nile for almost all of water resources; naturally, it is a crucial issue on how to preserve water quality of the River Nile. On the other hand, water in desert area is in deep sandstone aquifer and is generally non-renewable source, though considerable amounts of water are stored in the groundwater system. Table 5.13: Water Balance of the River Nile Water balance 3 Items (billion m /yr) Inflow Outflow & use HAD release 55.50 Effective rainfall 1.00 Sea water intrusion 2.00 Total inflow 58.50 Consumptive use agriculture 40.82 Consumptive use industries 0.91 Consumptive use domestic 0.45 Evaporation 3.00 Total use and evaporation 45.18 Navigation fresh water 0.26 Fayoum terminal drainage 0.65 Delta drainage to the sea 12.41 Total outflow 13.31 Source: MWRI Water demand in Egypt has been increasing due to population growth, higher standard of living, reclaiming new land, and advancing industrialization. Available water per capita per year for all purpose in 1999 was about 900m3; nonetheless, it is expected to fall to 670m3 and 536m3 by the years 2017 and 2025, respectively.

  • Non-Technical Summary Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) Report
    Arab Republic of Egypt Ministry of Housing, Utilities and Urban Communities European Investment Bank L’Agence Française de Développement (AFD) Construction Authority for Potable Water & Wastewater CAPW Helwan Wastewater Collection & Treatment Project Non-Technical Summary Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) Report Date of issue: May 2020 Consulting Engineering Office Prof. Dr.Moustafa Ashmawy Helwan Wastewater Collection & Treatment Project NTS ESIA Report Non - Technical Summary 1- Introduction In Egypt, the gap between water and sanitation coverage has grown, with access to drinking water reaching 96.6% based on CENSUS 2006 for Egypt overall (99.5% in Greater Cairo and 92.9% in rural areas) and access to sanitation reaching 50.5% (94.7% in Greater Cairo and 24.3% in rural areas) according to the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics (CAPMAS). The main objective of the Project is to contribute to the improvement of the country's wastewater treatment services in one of the major treatment plants in Cairo that has already exceeded its design capacity and to improve the sanitation service level in South of Cairo at Helwan area. The Project for the ‘Expansion and Upgrade of the Arab Abo Sa’ed (Helwan) Wastewater Treatment Plant’ in South Cairo will be implemented in line with the objective of the Egyptian Government to improve the sanitation conditions of Southern Cairo, de-pollute the Al Saff Irrigation Canal and improve the water quality in the canal to suit the agriculture purposes. This project has been identified as a top priority by the Government of Egypt (GoE). The Project will promote efficient and sustainable wastewater treatment in South Cairo and expand the reclaimed agriculture lands by upgrading Helwan Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) from secondary treatment of 550,000 m3/day to advanced treatment as well as expanding the total capacity of the plant to 800,000 m3/day (additional capacity of 250,000 m3/day).

  • Of the Anthophora-Species of Egypt
    Prof. Dr. H. PRIESNER A REVIEW OF THE ANTHOPHORA-SPECIES OF EGYPT [Hymenoptera : Apidae] A HEVIEW OF THE ANTHOPHORA-SPECIES OF EGYPT (Hymenoptera : Apidae] by Prof. Dr. H. PRIESNER INTRODUCTION Owing to the difficulties I encountered in trying to identify the Egyptian material of Anthophora in the collections of the Cairo and Ain Shams Universities, I had to penetrate more deeply into this matter, especially when I found that quite a number of species of the local collections were no doubt incorrectly named. With the progress of science, in our particular case with the improvements achieved by finding new distinctive characters and especially in the better relative evaluation of those already known, gained by experience and eye training, there lies upon us the bitter task to criticise and correct our late authorities on this subject who actually did all the spade work that enabled us to start on a considerable higher level of knowledge than that having been at their disposal. Apart from the relatively excellent work of KLUG (1845) and a number of species described by SPINOLA and - much later - GRIBODO, most of the taxonomic work on Anthophora of this country was done by H. FRIESE and A. ALFKEN, their work having been mainly based upon the Apid collections of our late A. ANDRES, while my late friend ALFKEN had also examined specimens he received from the Ministry of Agriculture, Mr. A. ALFIERI and the author. ALFKEN had, obviously with the intention of avoiding the creation of synonyms, identified a number of Egyptian species with such of Asiatic origin.

  • Archaologische Fundstellen Ober- Und Mittelagyptens in Ihrer Geologischen Landschaft*)
    Archaologische Fundstellen Ober- und Mittelagyptens in ihrer geologischen Landschaft*) Von KARL W. BUTZER Den festliindischen Sockel Agyptens und den groflten Teil des afrikanischen Kontinents bilden metamorphe Gesteine aus dem Archaikum. Dieses kristalline Fundament wurde in der darauf folgenden Zeit (Paliiozoikum) der allmiihlichen Abtragung preisgegeben, bis schlieJllich die bunten kontinentalen Schuttdecken des Nubischen Sandsteins wiihrend der Kreidezeit ab­ gelagert wurden. Darauf folgten die miichtigen marinen Kalke der Oberkreide und des Alt­ tertiiirs, welche die Kalkstein-Deckschichten der Libyschen Wiiste bilden. Im Verlauf des Jungtertiiirs (Mioziin und Plioziin var r bis 20 Mill. Jahren) zag sich <las Mittelmeer allmahlich auf seine heutige Kiiste zuriick; sandige und kalkige marine Sedimente dieser Epoche sind auf <las nordlichste Agypten beschriinkt. Wiihrend dies er Zeit ging der Nil, der schon im Alttertiiir angedeutet wird, zur Einschneidung seines jetzigen Tals ins Kalksteinplateau iiber. Nordlich Aswan bestand <las Niltal in seiner jetzigen Lage und in iihnlichem AusmaJl schon an der Grenze Unter-Oberplioziin, als eine erneute Meeresregression in Gestalt eines Meeresgolfs bis nach Oberiigypten talaufwiirts vorgedrungen war. Ablagerungen des oberplioziinen Golfs foll ten den urspriinglichen Taleinschnitt bis etwa I 80 m iiber dem Meeresspiegel. Im Norden sind sie sandig und tonig ausgebildet, wiihrend sich im Siiden Breeden und Konglomerate sowie Kalke und Mergel ablagerten. Zu Beginn des Quartiirs (var I Mill. J ahren) setzte die etappenmiiflige Ausriiumung dieser Golfablagerungen ein, <lurch die dem Tai seine heutige Gestalt verliehen wurde. Die iiber­ wiegende Tendenz des Flusses ging zur Einschneidung iiber, eine Richtung, die seither nur zeit­ weise <lurch geringe Aufschotterung und neuerdings Aufschlammung unterbrochen wurde. So bildet die plioziine Fiillung heute nur noch den Taluntergrund, der gelegentlich zutage tritt.

  • Phytogeography of the Eastern Desert Flora of Egypt Monier Abd El-Ghani, Fawzy Salama, Boshra Salem, Azza El-Hadidy & Mohamed Abdel-Aleem
    Wulfenia 24 (2017): 97–120 Mitteilungen des Kärntner Botanikzentrums Klagenfurt Phytogeography of the Eastern Desert flora of Egypt Monier Abd El-Ghani, Fawzy Salama, Boshra Salem, Azza El-Hadidy & Mohamed Abdel-Aleem Summary: 328 species in total were recorded at 500 sites between 30° 06’ and 24° 00’N in the Eastern Desert of Egypt. The occurrence of species was classified into 5 constancy classes: dominant, very common, common, occasional and sporadic. A sharp decrease in the number of recorded species was noticed along the N–S direction from Cairo-Suez road in the north to Aswan-Baranis road in the south (from 179 to 23), and an increase along the E–W direction from the Red Sea coast in the east to the River Nile Valley in the west (from 46 to 80). It was found out that geographical affinities affect the patterns of species distribution: 82 annual (therophyte) species are dominant life forms within the northern part of the study area, followed by 33 species in the southern part. Phanerophytes (trees) showed a decrease in their number from north (13 species) to south (9 species), but a slight increase from east (9 species) to west (10 species). Distribution maps of local geographical subtypes of each of the 4 major chorotypes are shown and a suggested improved phytogeographical map is presented. Keywords: chorotypes, desert vegetation, distribution maps, Egypt, local subtypes, phytogeography Egypt lies between 22° and 32°N latitude. It is part of the Sahara of North Africa and covers a total area of over one million km2 in the hyperarid region.
