Water Provisions in Egypt

One of the biggest challenges facing Egypt today is the lack of adequate infrastructure such as water and wastewater treatment facilities. The two water sources in Egypt are the Nile Valley groundwater and the Egyptian main freshwater source, the Nile. The annual share of water use in Egypt reached 55.5 billion fixed. Both water sources are supplying water to people, but due to the population increase, demand is higher than now. In addition to the shortfall, the limitations affecting these factors are mainly related to location, quality, quantity, and development costs (Ray, 2009).

The purpose of this research was to identify shortages of freshwater resources in Egypt and analyze information on the lack of freshwater resources. Freshwater is important for Egypt because it is in a desertified area and a long dry area. About 98% of the population live in the wealthiest place and they need a lot of fresh water to maintain their lives. China is also a country where water resources are serious. In China, freshwater resources are the fourth largest in the world. However, China has a large population, per capita water resource is only a quarter of the world average. I think that water chemistry that may affect water shortage is industrial water. Almost all the aquatic ecosystems in China are very good, the environment is clean. The Chinese are improving the aquatic ecosystem now. In my opinion, the reason for the shortage of water in Egypt is that the annual rainfall is small and the local population is large.

In order to survive, there are also countries affected by the water crisis, as there are three important resources, available water shortage, drought and water pollution. The water crisis facing Egypt is primarily water pollution, which is one of the big problems facing the global environment, and one of the causes of the water pollution problem is that it is illegal to release pollutants into water bodies There is no thing. (Caroline, 2009) Egypt has signed an agreement with the other 10 countries to share the water of Nile to provide fresh water for agriculture, industry and human consumption. Unlike other countries at the edge of the river system, Egypt enables large-scale management of how the upstream country uses the water resources of the Nile. Due to the sudden increase in population and climate change, the proportion of water will decrease. (CASCART, 2007)
