Three wells lying downstream of the Kirbet es-Samra sewage treatment plant (KS) waste stabilization ponds, and two wells lying upstream of them were monitored. Historic results over the two past decades were used in evaluating of KS effluent on the groundwater resources of the area. Prior to 1985, the downstream wells were of high quality, but later the water started to deteriorate. An increases in all parameters was encountered, although initially, the increase in certain parameters was mild and due to overpumping of the well water. Later this increase continued at a much higher rate, although the water table in the area by some 20m with a variety of indications showing domestic wastewater pollution effects. Groundwater measurements indicated a recharge mouth in the KS area and along Wadi Dhuleil. Hence, it can be deducted that a source of inferior water quality is recharging the groundwater and causing this increase in parameters. Since no source of pollution other than KS is encountered in the area, and because the parameters in the groundwater increase towards the KS and Wadi Dhuleil, it can be deducted that the effluent from KS is polluting the groundwater and rendering it unsuitable for almost all purposes. Comparatively, the two sample wells taken upstream of KS showed a mild increase in the water quality parameters until 1981-82, due to overpumping of the well water. But due to several wet years, the water table rose and these values decreased, continuing at a constant level. Since the groundwater flow is in the direction of Wadi Dhuleil, the negative effect of KS on groundwater resources can be clearly seen. If not stopped, this continuous manipulation of the groundwater resources will further pollute the groundwater resources of the entire area

The potential impact of industrial wastes on water resources in Amman-Zarka basin

Gedeon, R. (Ministry of Water and Irrigation, Amman (Jordan). Water Authority Laboratories)
Scarcity of water supply and increasing demand for water in a densely populated area like Amman-Zarka, as well as new threats and contaminants, have emerged, leaving the area with such diverse water quality problems as eutrophication in surface waters and nitrates in ground waters. The problem has been aggravated by increasing emissions of industrial effluents from more than 60 industries located in the catchment area of Amman-Zarqa. Thus the present work has been confined to assessing industrial wastes and their impact on water resources. Water, as part of the human environment, occurs in four main forms - as groundwater, in surface water bodies, in the sea and as vapour in the atmosphere. The present work deals with the first two only, with main objectives as follows: Assessment of man - made impacts on water quality in the area. Identification of sources of pollution and pollutant pathways and behaviour. Determination of trends of chemical constituents and organic pollutants in water resources
