| Abstract | ||
| Wadi Al Naft is a narrow valley originates from the confluence of two tributaries within the industrial region of (BaBa GurGur). The valley is being used to discharge the oily wastewater from the North Oil Company (NOC) premises in addition to the natural oil seepages within the industrial region. The oily wastewater is a polluting source to the agricultural lands at Hawija district and further lands. The study included (111) samples of oily wastewater from (13) sampling stations (9 on the first tributary and 3 on the second tributary) along the course of Wadi Al Naft and its tributaries. The sampling procedure was performed for a continuous period of seven months (Jan.2007-May2007), in addition at selective seasonal periods during April and July. It was found that the oil concentration plays a major role in polluting the wastewater discharged to the channel; which was (44%) above the permissible standard. | ||
