Noubaria Canal
Mahmoudia Canal
Khandak Canal
Drinking Water Canal
Solutions & Projects to Keep Good Resources at Naubaria Canal –TDS Degradation
Preserving the Standard of Turbid Water Quality the Intake of El Seiouf WTP
- Water resources of Rond Point,El Seiouf , El Mamoura( El Montaza Canal) and ( Forn El Geraia ) WTP (s) are located on the Mahmoudia Canal.
- Manshia WTP is located on the canal emanated from the Mahmoudia Canal in Khourshid area, before being polluted by industrial wastes.
- While the permanent analysis of the daily intakes is done according to the standard specifications and the general standards. some specifications of water banks are not complied with the standard specifications. Accordingly, the following corrective actions have been taken:-
-In 1988, the intake of Rond Point WTP changed from Mahmoudia canal to a drinking water canal.
- In 1990, El Mamoura WTP was supplied with new pipes instead of El Montaza canal which was supplying the raw water from Mahmoudia Canal.
- In 1996, new pipes were connected to Forn El Geraia WTP to supply the raw water from the drinking canal.
- It was necessary to expand the drinking
canal to provide raw water to the intake
to be :1.200000 m3 / day.
- In 2002, all WTP(s) intakes were changed
to comply with the international standard
specifications and the intakes are
automatically purified.
- The intake is purified regularly from the
accumulative weeds and silt deposits.
- A continuous cooperation between AWCO
and the Ministry of Irrigation and water
Resources to purify the canal annually or
when required.
Preserving the Standard of Turbid Water Quality the Intake of El Seiouf WTP
AWCO Laboratories - The mission of Alexandria Water
Company is to produce a cup of water
complies with the international
standards . In each WTP, there is a
highly scientifically and technically
equipped lab responsible for following
up the purification process starting
from the intakes till the customer
networks .In addition, AWCO’s Central
Lab has the start of art equipments to
carry out all the chemical, organic,
- (Inorganic), bacteriological and
biological analysis. Indicated in the
international and Egyptian standards .
- A joint sanitary committee is formed between
the Administration of Health Affairs and AWCO’s
Central Laboratory for withdrawing samples from
the networks to determine the validity of the
bacteriological analysis. In addition to the
weekly random sampling of all the distribution
system to assure that water comply with
standars .
- Since July 2010 till June 2011,58.29 samples
have been withdrawn . 925 samples only have
proved to be incompatible with a percentage of
1.6 %

Tanks Purification
In 1990 , a research has been made in AWCO lab tackled 50 tanks in Alexandria , the Chemical , bacteriological & biological researches results indicate that there is a difference between the quality of tanks water and the quality of houses water . A survey has been made to many tanks in Alexandria , and the following problems have been found out: Tanks without covers . Tanks made by breaks , concrete and painted by biotammen which is an unhealthy dangerous isolative material . Corroded metal tanks . Fiberglass tanks polluted by weeds .
TariffThe tariff of AWCO takes in to consideration the poors. It hasn’t been changed since 10 years and the government subsidy covers about 70% of drinking water production cost . That, definitely reflects AWCO awarness with the importance of providing all society classes with drinking water to improve standard of the sanitations for all levels of Alexandria people in general
