Water quality assessment is crucial for public and ecosystem health, yet traditional approaches often overlook the nutritional aspects of drinking water. This study introduces Drinking Nutritional Quality Index (DWNQI) to Africa, presenting its first application in continent. The research evaluated status water resources semi-urban areas Southeast Nigeria, shifting from a contaminant-focused paradigm. samples were strategically collected various sources. Five key elements (Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Mn2+, Zn2+) that play roles both human health environmental processes considered. DWNQI model revealed concerning trend, with scores ranging 9.76 78.54 (average 32.02). analysis showed 73.33% fell within "Poor" category, 13.33% "Marginal," 6.67% "Fair," "Good" categories, no reaching excellent range, indicating low trend area. Sensitivity reveal Mg2+and Ca2+ exerted most influence on studied samples. Removal Mg2+ index resulted 23.77% decrease average score, while removal led 23.42% decrease. Key recommendations include implementing targeted mineral enrichment programs developing initiatives address potential deficiencies. contributes sustainability by providing new perspective quality, potentially informing management policies guiding interventions African settings beyond.

The industrialization of Nigeria for economic development has led to the pollution ecosystem by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) through anthropogenic activities. PAHs are toxic organic compounds, ubiquitous and can pose a health-related environmental risk. sources, concentration, health risk assessments in underground surface water were reviewed this study. Previous studies extracted from research databases (PubMed, Google Scholar, ResearchGate, Scopus) appropriately screened. PAH levels found at low high concentrations could populace. values ranged ND–17,762 ND–450,000 µg/L water, respectively. Also, sources pyrogenic petrogenic. cancer assessment recorded high-risk via dermal ingestion exposure routes humans. hazard index (HI) non-carcinogenic observed no except only one It is recommended that proper monitoring, awareness, strict enforcement regulatory laws be implemented prevent compound.

Abstract Due to water shortages and the potential impact of Ethiopia’s new dam on Nile River, Egypt is seeking resources. This study assesses drinking quality associated risks from potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in Quaternary aquifer (QA) Beni-Suef, Egypt. Using a comprehensive approach, including PHREEQC geochemical modeling, ionic ratios, multivariate statistical analyses, integrated weight index (WQI), evaluated sources ion contamination mixing with QA. Various indices, such as Heavy Metal Pollution Index (HPI), ecological Risk (RI), Hazard Quotient (HQ), (HI), were used assess health risks. Monte Carlo simulations provided probabilistic assessments non-carcinogenic for adults children. GIS tools map risk identifying most deteriorated locations sustainable management. The hydrochemical analysis revealed facies Na–Cl, Ca–Mg–HCO 3 , mixed types, influenced by carbonate dissolution, exchange, silicate weathering. Contamination sources, particularly north south, linked agricultural activities, irrigation return flow, municipal waste, evaporation. WQI indicated that 10.14% samples extremely poor, 21.7% 26% medium, 42% good excellent. PTE varied, HPI values indicating central area 53.6% collected (HPI < 30), but south high > 51). Ecological below threshold 100% (RI confirming safety regarding PTEs. In comparison, hazard (HI) through oral/ingestion, exhibited HI ranging 0.012 2.16, while children showed higher values, 0.045 8.25. However, oral/ingestion exceeded safe limits (HI oral 1), posing significant exposure manganese (HQ El-Wasta El-Fashn, necessitating further treatment
