Abstract
The combustion of heavy fuel oil concentrates a high content of heavy elements in the ashes. These elements are vanadium, calcium, magnesium, sulfur, sodium, zinc, iron, silicon, nickel, aluminum and manganese, and radioactive metals as uranium and thorium. These elements have dangerous environmental impacts. Also water treatment unit’s produces solid wastes. Such wastes later enter the environment by different pathways producing adverse effects on the quality of life, so reduction of the amount of solid wastes to be discharged to the environment goes in accordance with Egyptian Environmental Legal solid wastes discharge Regulations and man’s welfare.
