Abstract

Groundwater of the El-Kantara plain needs greater attention, because it is the alternative source of water for domestic and agricultural purposes. Water  pollution affects both water quality and human health. Hence it is essential for continuous monitoring of the quality of groundwater so that pollution can  be minimized. This study aims to evaluate the degree and extent of contamination of the Mio-Plio-Quaternary alluvial aquifer, in the El-Kantara area,  Northern Biskra region (Algeria). A pollution index of groundwater (PIG) is proposed for quantification of water contamination at eleven (11) sampling  different wells during four times at each well (dry period: September 2011/2014 and wet period February 2012/2015). PIG quantifies the status of concentrations of water quality measures with respect to their drinking water quality standards. The computed values of Pollution Index Groundwater  (PIG) of El-Kantara aquifer in El-Hai River Basin vary from 0.746 (Insignificant pollution during wet period; February 2015) to 6.287(Very high pollution  during dry period; September 2014). Spatial variation map has been prepared using GIS reveled that most of the study area accounts for very high  pollution zones (61.36% of samples).

阿尔及利亚埃尔坎塔拉平原El Hai河流域基于猪的水质评估
El Kantara平原的地下水需要更多的关注,因为它是家庭和农业用水的替代水源。水污染影响水质和人类健康。因此,必须持续监测地下水质量,以便将污染降至最低。本研究旨在评估Biskra北部El Kantara地区(阿尔及利亚)Mio Plio第四纪冲积含水层的污染程度和程度。建议采用地下水污染指数(PIG)对11口不同井的水污染进行量化,每口井采样四次(旱季:2011/2014年9月,雨季:2012/2015年2月)。PIG根据饮用水质量标准对水质指标的浓度状况进行量化。El Hai河流域El Kantara含水层地下水污染指数(PIG)的计算值在0.746(丰水期轻度污染;2015年2月)至6.287(枯水期极高污染;2014年9月)之间。利用GIS绘制的空间变化图表明,研究区域大部分为高污染区(61.36%的样本)。
