Analysis of Physico-Chemical and Bacteriological Parameters of Liquid Effluents from the Provincial Hospital Center in Sidi Kacem Morocco

Background: The effluents generated by the hospital activities and which are rejected into themunicipal sewerage system without any prior treatment, present a chemical, biological physicalrisk for public environmental health. They cause degradation of aquatic ecosystem, favorthe propagation antibiotic resistant germs. Objective: aim this study is to carry out physicochemicaland bacteriological analysis provincial Sidi Kacem in Rabat-Salé-Kénitra region, Morocco, order evaluate degree wastewater pollution reduce itsenvironmental impact.Methods: 24 samples were collected from Hospital’s main sewer according toMoroccan Norm NM 03.7.059 transported Provincial Laboratory Epidemiology andEnvironmental Health (LPEHM) analysis. These analyses conducted therequirements methods recommended Rodier 1996 2009.Results: results showed very high bacterial load fecal coliforms(36,7.104 CFU/100 ml), total coliforms (40.104 streptococci (21.104 CFU/100ml). physicochemical parameters revealed significant organic mineral matter expressedin terms nitrates (41,59 mg/l), nitrites (0,53 sulphates (222,75 ammonia (1,95 mg/l),electrical conductivity (3202 μs/cm), hydrogen potential PH (7.82), all well above theupper limit stipulated regulations. COD/BOD5 ratio (7.66) higher than 3 means that theseeffluents hardly biodegradable.Conclusion: show effluent loaded with mineral, bacteriologicalpollutants requires
