English Abstract

Wadi Al Naft is a narrow valley originates from the confluence of two tributaries within the industrial region of (BaBa GurGur), The valley is used to discharge the oily wastewater from the North Oil Company (NOC) premises in addition to the natural oil seepages within the industrial region.

The oily wastewater is a polluting source to the agricultural lands at Hawija district and further lands.

The study included (111) samples of oily wastewater from (13) sampling stations (9 on the first tributary and 3 on the second tributary) along the course of Wadi Al Naft and its tributaries and (12) samples from soil adjacent to the channel.

The sampling procedure was performed for a continuous period of seven months (Jan2007-May2007).

in addition at selective seasonal periods during April and July.

It was found that the oil concentration plays a major role in polluting the wastewater discharged to the channel; which was (44%) above the permissible standard.

From the chemical analysis conducted on wastewater samples, the pollutants concentrations were almost varying along the channel.

TDS, sulfate, and calcium concentrations were above standard with (63.7 %), (65 %), and (68.8 %) respectively. The soil was found to be high polluted with hydrocarbons especially in the natural seepages region (station No.

l), as the hydrocarbon ratio ranges between (15.58-16.08) percent. A suggested hydraulic structure was designed to separate the floating oil from wastewater; the structure consists of a sharp-crested side spillway and sluice gate on the main channel of Wadi Al Naft.
