Industrial wastewater management problems in borg el arab new [compatibility ...Helalley Helalley
Borg El-Arab is a new industrial city within Alexandria containing around 1400 factory
distributed within ten industrial zones. Two years ago, the sanitary system including the
treatment plant of Borg El-Arab was handed to Alexandria Sanitary Drainage Company for
management.
From the preliminary survey it was found that all factory's effluents were not complying with
the limits of Law 93 for year 1963 and the presidential decree 44 for year 2000. They dispose
their raw wastewater directly into the sewerage system, which creates a chronic street
flooding problems all over the industrial zones. As well as affecting the quality of the old
treatment plant influent located at the east of the city and the newly instructed tertiary
treatment plant.
These factories did not construct effective industrial effluent treatment systems for their
wastes, which were supposed to be constructed before getting the permission to start the
industrial activity and production. Another problem was the lack of effective industrial
effluent monitoring, and weakness of the legal power and action against non-complying
industries. Finally, there was no technical assistance system.
Alexandria Sanitary Drainage Company carried out a Management system to solve these
problems through: 1) Industrial survey for each factory; 2) Periodical sampling and analyzing
program based on severity of the industry; 3) Take step by step action for non-complying
factories; 4) Assisting non-complying factories to apply pollution prevention concepts. This
system applies for old existing industries, for new ones an additional step is provided which is
they don't get a permission to start industrial activity and production unless they have
effective industrial wastewater treatment system which include pollution prevention concepts.
As a result, street flooding problems have decreased and number of complying industries has
increased.
Under these circumstances we would like to stress on the importance of applying On-line
Monitoring systems to assure effective control of industrial effluent quality 24/7.

Implementation of ETP & effect of Textile waste water on environment Rois Mahmud Hridoy
The document summarizes the implementation of an effluent treatment plant (ETP) at Niagara Textile Industry Ltd. in Bangladesh. It describes the ETP's physico-chemical treatment process which includes screening, sedimentation, filtration, pH control, coagulation, flocculation, and aeration. The ETP treats about 120m3 of wastewater per hour. While the ETP aims to treat wastewater, the quality of its discharged water remains poor with visible color and odor, potentially harming the local canal waters. Untreated textile wastewater from industries pollutes Bangladesh's environment through high levels of biochemical and chemical oxygen demand. Proper implementation and maintenance of ETPs is needed

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
