Suitability assessment of shallow and deep groundwaters for drinking and irrigation use in the El Khairat aquifer (Enfidha, Tunisian Sahel) 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
The El Khairat aquifer is an important groundwater aquiferous system, which is considered a major source for drinking and
irrigation water in Enfidha in Tunisian Sahel. The analysis of groundwater chemical characteristics provides much important
information useful in water resources management. Assessing the water quality status for special use is the main objective
of any water monitoring studies. An attempt has been made for the first time in this region to appreciate the quality and/or
the suitability of shallow and deep groundwater for drinking and irrigation. In order to attend this objective, a total of
35 representative water samples were collected during February 2007 from both boreholes (17) and wells (18); and analyzed
for the major cations (sodium, calcium, magnesium and potassium) and anions (chloride, sulphate, bicarbonate, and nitrate)
along with various physical and chemical parameters (temperature, pH, total dissolved salts, and electrical conductivity).
Based on the physico-chemical analyses, irrigation quality parameters like sodium absorption ratio (SAR), residual sodium
carbonate (RSC), percentage of sodium (Na%), and permeability index (PI) were calculated. In addition to this, iso-concentration
maps were constructed using the geographic information system to delineate spatial variation of qualitative parameters of
groundwater samples. The correlation of the analytical data has been attempted by plotting different graphical representations
such as Piper, Wilcox, and US Salinity Laboratory for the classification of water. The suitability of the water from the groundwater
sources for drinking and irrigation purposes was evaluated by comparing the values of different water quality parameters with
World Health Organization guideline values for drinking water. A preliminary hydrochemical characterization shows that most
of the groundwater samples fall in the field of calcium–magnesium–chloride–sulphate type of water. Majority of the samples
are not suitable for drinking purposes and far from drinking water standards. The high EC value and the percentage of Na in
most of the groundwater render it unsuitable for irrigation. Wilcox classification suggested that around 50% of both deep
and shallow groundwater samples are unsuitable for irrigation. According to the US Salinity Classification, most of the groundwater
is unsuitable for irrigation unless special measures are adopted. 相似文献

Detailed observation of the Upper Pleistocene deposits of Rafraf (Bizerte, Northeastern Tunisia) provides new data about the significant variations in facies, thickness, and faunal assemblages. This work reports, for the first time, the occurrence of a Persististrombus latus level in the Rafraf sea coast. Facies analyses added to the recorded sedimentary features were carried in order to recognize stratigraphy, paleontology, and sea level highstands. They revealed complex succession of various Upper Pleistocene environments ranging from coastal dunes to inner platforms with scatter builds by Vermetus triquetrus and P. latus. The marine Upper Pleistocene deposits rich in the Senegalese fauna P. latus draw scale steps outcropping at diverse altitudes varying between 1 and 14 m. Serial sections along the border of the Rafraf beach show the action of many faults trending EW and NW-SE. Even though these faults got low values of vertical throw, their cumulative throw values led to these different altitudes of strata containing P. latus. These altitude variations are mainly the result of the inherited geomorphology, the environmental distribution, the sea level fluctuations and the tectonic activities. 相似文献

The knowledge of piezometric data is of vast interest in many applications, such as assessing groundwater flow direction and identifying recharge zone of the aquifer. In this paper, a methodology is presented as a complementary approach to characterize multilayered aquifer system structure and functioning using piezometric data and the cartography of the hydraulic charge difference. The methodology is presented to gradually discriminate the aquifer system levels and to evaluate the spatial distribution of hydraulic heads. The hydraulic charge difference mapping permits to track spatial evolution of the impermeable levels. The methodology has been applied over the Maknassy basin aquifer system, located in central Tunisia. The obtained results, showing the multilayered aquifer structure, are validated using hydrochemical approach and piezometric data not considered in the reasoning. 相似文献

Olive oil is a typical and valuable agro-industrial product in Mediterranean countries. In Tunisia, olive mill wastewaters
(OMW) reach an amount of about 1,000,000 t year−1 and constitute a serious organic pollution risk because of the high chemical oxygen demand values and the presence of phytotoxic
and antibacterial polyphenols. OMW have been generally stored in pond sites to be eliminated by natural evaporation or valorised
by spreading on cultivated soils or by composting. Many researches on the interactions of OMW with soils at laboratory scale
(columns) have been reported, but less attention have been paid to the effect of OMW on soils at field scale. The aim of this
work is to investigate an area used for >15 years as an uncontrolled OMW pond site. The transformations of soil properties
and groundwater occurring during OMW storage were characterised by the pH, phenolic contents, electrical conductivity (EC),
moisture content and organic contents. The soil samples were taken from two borings and compared to those of a control one
located near the pond site. Groundwater samples were taken on the accessible and nearest water wells to the evaporation ponds.
The permeable silty and sandy layers in the site support the infiltration of OMW near the evaporation ponds. This infiltration
has reached a depth of 6 m at a distance of almost 50 m laterally. The results show that the OMW infiltration in the subsoil
has affected the pH, EC, organic content, phenolic compounds and the moisture. 相似文献

The main factors and mechanisms controlling the groundwater chemistry and mineralization are recognized through hydrochemical data. However, water quality prediction remains a key parameter for groundwater resources management and planning. The geochemical study of groundwater of a multilayered aquifer system in Tunisia is recognized by measurements of the pH, EC, total dissolved solids (TDS), major ion concentration and nitrates of 36 samples from pumping wells covering the aquifer extension and analyzed using standard laboratory and field methods. The calcite precipitation, gypsum, anhydrite and halite dissolution, and direct and reverse ion exchange are the principal process of chemical evolution in the Nadhour-Saouaf aquifer system. Using stepwise regression, the concentration groups of (Ca, Cl, and NO3), (Cl, SO4, and Mg), and (Ca and Na) exhibit significant prediction of TDS in Plio-Quaternary, Miocene, and Oligocene aquifer levels, respectively. The highest values of R 2 and adjusted R 2 close to 1 revealed the accuracy of the developed models which is confirmed by the weak difference between the measured and estimated values varying between ?12 and 8%. The important uncertainty parameters that affected the estimated TDS are assessed by the sensitivity analysis method. The concentration of (Cl), (Ca and Cl), and (Na) are the major parameters affecting the TDS sensitivity of the Plio-Quaternary, Miocene, and Oligocene aquifer levels, respectively. Hence, the developed TDS models provide a more simple and easy alternative to other methods used for groundwater quality estimation and prediction as proven from external validation on groundwater samples unconsidered in the model construction. 相似文献

A study of the form and characteristics of the reservoirs and aquifers of southwestern Tunisia has been carried out from 62 petroleum explorations and hydrogeologic wells and structural maps. The evolution of basins can be deduced from the tectonic history. The Jurassic reservoirs are represented by the Upper Nara carbonates. The petrophysical characteristics and the fracturation affecting the Nara carbonates reveal the existence of very good reservoirs. Several reservoirs have also been identified in the Lower Cretaceous. These reservoirs are made of sandy levels, interbedded with shale, carbonates and dolomites. In addition, petroleum and hydrogeologic studies have revealed that potential aquifers may occur in two provinces (near the Chott Basin and east–west faults). Most of the geological formations in the South West of Tunisia are composed of sand, sandstone and limestone, with the existence of real aquifers. To cite this article: M. Chalbaoui, H. Ben Dhia, C.

From Lower- and Middle-Triassic formations (respectively, the Sidi Stout and the Kirchaou sandstones) in southern Tunisia, 13 sites have been chosen for a palaeomagnetic study. In spite of the presence of two antiparallels, normal and reverse clusters of stable magnetization directions, the magnetization carried by these rocks results from a relatively recent remagnetization. 相似文献

Groundwater salinization of the Sfax superficial aquifer,Tunisia 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Groundwater salinization has become a crucial environmental problem worldwide and is considered the most widespread form of groundwater contamination. The origin of salinity in the coastal aquifer of the Sfax Basin, Tunisia was investigated by means of chemical analyses of groundwater samples from 65 wells. The groundwater samples present a clear gradation from calcium sulphate salinization to that of sodium chloride. The saturation indices for calcite and gypsum, and binary diagrams of different ions, together with multivariate analysis, indicate the existence of various salinization processes such as: dissolution of gypsum and calcite dispersed through the reservoir rock; ion exchange; intensive agricultural practices that produce effluents that infiltrate to the saturated zone; and sea-water intrusion, enhanced by excessive withdrawal of groundwater. 相似文献

Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP)–concrete composites provide an attractive alternative to conventional pile materials such as steel, concrete and wood by improving the durability of deep foundations. In the current study, FRP tubes with different taper angles are filled with self-consolidating concrete (SCC) and driven into dense sand that is enclosed in a large pressurized soil chamber. Driving tests are conducted on FRP–SCC composite piles to determine how the pile material and geometric configuration affect its driving performance. Dynamic data is employed to determine the soil parameters in the TNO model (i.e., soil quake and damping constant) using the DLTWAVE signal-matching program. The driveability of FRP–SCC and traditional pile materials is compared using the wave equation analysis program PDPWAVE. The experimental data and the wave equation analyses indicate that the taper shape has a favourable effect on the driveability and static resistance of piles. It is also found that the driveability of FRP–SCC composite piles is similar to that of conventional prestressed concrete and steel piles. However, empty FRP tubes required a much higher driving energy. Their low flexural resistance along with risk of buckling can hinder their driveability in different soil conditions. 相似文献
