B. A.
Egypt is facing a shortage of traditional fuels. Poultry farms consume a huge amount of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinders for heating purpose in winter, which affects the needs of the domestic sector. Poultry Manure is difficult to dispose and its accumulation causes spreading of harmful insects and pests which leading to the dissemination of various diseases that are transmitted to humans and animals and pose a threat to public health. While poultry wastes can be anaerobically fermented to produce biogas to make self-sufficiency of methane. Poultry manure (PM) contains high percentage of nitrogen though it must be co-digested with other substrates to adjust carbon nitrogen ratio to produce biogas with high quality and high percentage of methane. Poultry manure is co-digested with Banana Peels (BP). A simple setup was used to digest the mixed substrate PM /BP with different ratios. PM /BP mixtures at different ratios -5 mixtures- were digested. Mixtures are as follows BP and PM was mixed at ratios 1-3, 1-1, 3-1 respectively in addition to BP and PM only. Five digesters were used to carry out experiments. Biogas was collected and measured daily. The studied parameters were pH, C/N ratio, biogas yield, and methane content. The best co-substrates with the highest percentage of methane content and highest amount of biogas produced are 50% BP+50%PM.

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in drinking water, have a negative impact on human health and environment especially that formed during chlorination step in the treatment process, they classified as possible human carcinogens, when exceed the permissible limits. The identification and quantification of VOCs performed by purge & trap GC/MS instrument, using reference analytical method (EPA 524.2, 1995). A monthly monitoring comparative study established during 2016 in both input and output of Shubra El-Kheima (Water Treatment Plants WTP) (1 km far from Nile River on Al-Sharqawia canal at the northern border of capital Cairo) and South Alamein WTP (270 km downstream far from the Nile River on Alhamam canal at North Coast of Egypt). The study investigated and recorded the presence of disinfection by-product of Volatile Organic Compounds (DBPs-VOCs) (CHCl3, CHCl2Br, CHClBr2 and CHBr3) which exceeded the permissible limits in the produced Water of South Alamein WTP and its boosters. The study succeeded in estimating the amount of granular activated carbon GAC required to reduce (DBPs-VOCs) values from (178 µg/l) to (94 µg/l) in the produced water of South Alamein WTP, The duration frequency for changing (GAC)would be approximately (581 ton)/(17 days).

THE IMPACT OF THE VALUE ENGINEERING ON THE DECISION MAKING AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY IN EGYPT
Muhammad, Kh.
M. A.
The construction industry is concerned with satisfying its customers’ needs through delivering projects that achieve their objectives and meet their expectations on time, within budget and as specified. Despite the several housing programmes constructed by government authorities, there is a real housing problem for the poor. This problem is attributed to a number of reasons. Amongst them, the T inability of the low-incomers to cover the cost of supplied houses and the lack of the constructed projects to achieve users’ satisfaction. This highlighted the need to develop innovative and creative solutions that can deliver housing projects that achieve the satisfaction of their users and at the most-cost effective manner simultaneously. This aim will be achieved through incorporating the concepts of Value Management (VM) and Risk Management (RM) in developing housing projects for the poor. Towards studies of low-income housing projects constructed by the government of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in Musaffah commercial city. Finally, outlining the research recommendations for government authorities, design firms and construction professionals concerned with housing projects for the poor.

Biodegradation of Lignocellulosic wastes (cotton stalks and corn cobs) was carried out by single and mixed cultures of Trichoderma viride T3 and three strains of Aspergillus niger with code A2, A4 and An2. Results indicated that biodegradation of cotton stalks and corn cobs by mixed culture gave higher activities for cellulase production and saccarification than single cultures. Mixed culture of Trichoderma viride T3 and Aspergillus niger A4 gave the highest activity of cellulase being 1.02 & 0.94 U/ml with 49.7 & 45.8 % of saccarification on media containing alkaline corn cobs and cotton stalks, respectively. It was observed that the ability of the mixed for degrading corn cobs was more efficient than degrading cotton stalks which increased about 1.08 fold of cellulase activity and saccharification. The biological and enzyme parameters of co-culture on alkaline corn cobs were calculated, which recorded 56.73 % of yield factor, 85.59 % of sugar utilization efficiency, 16.60 % of effective yield, 32.55 % enzyme yield, 37.60 % conversion coefficient with productivity of 0.15 U/ml/d.

In the present study, corn milling by-products especially with high protein or fiber content (i.e. corn and corn gluten meal) were used in replacing part of wheat flour to the production of pan bread.The effect of blending level (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%) of corn bran, corn gluten meal and mix of them with wheat flour on the physico-chemical properties (protein, crude fiber, fat, ash and total carbohydrates), baking properties of pan bread were investigated. Blending of wheat flour and corn gluten meal and mix of (corn bran, corn gluten meal) significantly increased the protein, dietary fiber, fat and ash contents of pan bread samples, while blending of corn bran increased dietary fiber, fat and ash contents of pan bread. Blending of wheat flour and corn by-products especially corn bran decreased total carbohydrates and energy (Energy cal./100gm). Breads from mix of (corn bran, corn gluten meal) blends had higher loaf volume as compared to corn bran and corn gluten meal pan breads. Acceptable pan bread products could be produced by blending corn byproducts with wheat up to 20% level.

The phenomenon of rampant growth of residential communities is a global phenomenon prevalent in most developing countries, 862.6 million people is the number of slum-dwellers are developing regions in the world, and is 60% of the population in Asia, while Africa maintain its two 26.2% and America including Latin America and Caribbean countries 13.1%، and the United Nations estimates for human settlements indicate that by the year 2030 is expected to live more than 50% of the world''s population in slums, which will be launched on our planet the planet of slums as well as that coming decades will witness the growth of urban unprecedented, particularly in developing regions and poor, which will lead to the emergence of a Further aspects of poverty in urban areas, and accompanied by many random areas, the emergence of lacking minimum decent living requirements and all types of services, including adequate housing, and it will be more obvious in the third world where accompanied by urban growth of any economic growth and social or take into account communities environmental dimension can be asserted.
Slum housing is a phenomenon characterized by being spread out all over the Great Cairo region leading to deterioration in the housing environment in general and leaving negative impacts on the social aspects and human behavior that surround the region, in particular, and especially, the agricultural areas in the north, west, and south and even the desert area in the east. This random growth has got negative impacts on other Egyptian cities by transforming the agricultural lands randomly to urban districts and uses, increasing in turn the pressure on water networks, drainage, electricity and other utilities.
This present research counts on the theoretical-analytical method for exposing and analyzing the different approaches of the schema set for each region to resolve the informal housing problem. The research also uses the case study approach, the (applied) part to improve performance.
This research deals with policies and entrances dealing with non-formal housing in Egypt in general and the Greater Cairo region in particular, and evaluation of development experience, which has in the region particularly since the middle of last century trying to successive governments to find solutions to this important issue through the implementation of a number of policies to cope with rampant growth for those areas, and it has become serious since 2014 when committed the Egyptian Constitution, the successive elimination of slums and the citizen''s right to adequate housing and government research deals with assessing schemes during the period since 2000 to now to deal with informal areas and limit their growth, according to the scheme T and policies that have followed and to identify the pros and cons of those entrances and their contribution in solving the problems of informal areas and offer the experience of facility district development Nasser to evaluate the development of real estate and wealth provided and identify the elements of attraction and the elements of the package, which took place in the neighborhood to extract indicators and lessons planned lessons contribute to the formulation of a new planning vision for the development of the entrances to the housing areas of non-formal

THE ROLE OF THE NON-OFFICIAL SOCIALCONTROL IN ACHIEVING THE SOCIETALSECURITYIN SOUTH SINAL
Awad,

Mohamed,
E. B.
The purpose of the study is to identify the role of informal social control in achieving community security in the South Sinai Governorate by recognizing the role of customs, customs and traditions in achieving community security and recognizing the extent to which Bedouins respect tribal leaders and obey their orders.
The descriptive study was based on a number of research methods, namely the social survey method in the sample, including a representative sample of all the nine governorates and villages, valleys and Bedouin communities. The study used the appropriate tool. The questionnaire contains 77 closed questions, including two open questions. A sample of 300 persons was easy for the respondents. The illiteracy rate was 28%, and the study used social control theory.
The study reached several results, including a statistically significant role for informal social control in achieving community security. The results also indicate that the Bedouins like to live in groups, and that their social relations are distinct in their interdependence and compliment each other in joy and joy and enjoy and enjoy security, where they have no incidents of killing or theft or cutting roads.
The results also indicated their keenness to participate in the elections. Informal social control mechanisms were not an impediment to women's participation in elections.
They respect the elders and obey their orders, although the degree of respect among young people now and the elderly has declined. They also prefer customary justice to the formal elimination of the speed of adjudication in disputes and their sense that customary law is a preventive security, despite their knowledge of official security rules. In view of the results, it is possible to recommend the following: • Strengthening community security in the governorate by establishing industrial projects to attract the largest number of Bedouin residents to work in it, since tourism often needs specializations that are not available in the Bedouin. • Construction of factories next to the quarries instead of manufacturing them outside the Sinai and thus will not deprive Badawi from working. • The need to codify informal social control rules and incorporate them through scientific studies because they are all oral, and technological advances in communications can expose them to extinction.

The current study drives at exploring some social and health variables associated with children use to the internet and electronic games. The sample consists of (327) male/female students in primary and preparatory stage aged (9-16 year olds) in late childhood stage. The researchers use the descriptive method using a random sample. A questionnaire has been applied to students at schools either they are experimental, private language, or international schools in Cairo governorate using T. Test for exploring the individual differences. The study also uses several tools including the Coefficient Correlation, Chi-Square Coefficient, Average, Standard Deviation, and Percentage Probable average of some social and health variables.
The study comes to several results as follows: there is a significant statistical correlation between using the internet and identifying other persons, and forming new friendships; since there is an interaction between researched individuals and the persons and friendships consisted through the internet or outside it.
There is no relationship between using the internet and social isolation among late childhood male/female children.
There is a significant statistical relationship between some health variables and using the internet and playing electronic games such as: hand and back pain, the visual-motional adjustment, and there is a correlation between using the internet and electronic games and feeling of eye exhaustion.
Study Recommendations: The study recommends imposing control upon the internet sites addressing children, enlightening parents with the necessity of investigating the content of the materials children receive through the internet and direct them to how to use it.
The study also recommends developing contents of electronic games such as innovating simulation games (such as flying simulation) and other useful games.

G. M.
The actual study reveals the social and physical variables related to aggression against husbands. The theoretical importance is illustrated in trying to benefit from theoretical heritage in all what was written about the wives aggression against their husbands through a field comparative study among a sample of 24 wives who practice aggression against their husbands. In choosing the sample, we took in consideration the social, economic and cultural variance, which is divided to 12 cases of Egypt's rural life, then choosing them from the family court at Badrashin, the family court at Nabia, family is puts settlement office at Giza and other 12 cases of urban life, then chosen from Abbassia court, Helwan court, and Family court at El Esaaf.
The researcher used the comparative method and the actual study method. As for the study theoretical framework, the researcher used a structural occupational, symbolic interaction theory and this struggle theory. The study reached several results.
Results:
1. The economic world is not the only factor that explains women's violence, and may be attributed to several considerations, perhaps the most important of which is that many women who suffer from economic destitution, poverty and material need do not engage in violent behavior at all; poverty is not the reason But is a factor.
2. The socio-sociological dimension emphasizes that the consequences of female violence are due to several reasons, the most important of which can be cited as: the failure or malfunction of the socialization process, which has led, to a great extent, to the violent behavior of some women. Unhealthy upbringing is primarily due to problems of construction, not individual problems, family disintegration or poor social relations that have led some women to engage in violent behavior, poor parental, conjugal or conjugal control and the corruption of the surrounding social environment often led to the abuse of some women Violent behavior.
3. The psychological dimension indicates that female violence is due to a combination of factors. The most important of which is that the emotional deprivation of feelings and feelings plays a large role in some women's resort to a form of violence, and also leads to depression, frustration or depression.
4. The health and mood conditions confirm that women's violence is attributed to several causes; perhaps the most important of which are the following: Pre-menstrual tension or interruption (or so-called menopause) leads to violent behavior by some women.

This study is based on the pattern of analytical descriptive studies aimed at describing and analyzing the social and physiological challenges facing women's use of modern technology. This study was conducted in Giza governorate. The theories of the study were from postmodern theory and feminist social theory. The effect of social challenges on the inability of women to use modern technology, as the results of statistical analysis showed a statistically significant impact of the social challenges, and the value of (k2 = 26.316) and the value of significance (0.000) at a significant level less than (0.01) The correlation coefficient was (0.775) at a significant level of 0.05. There was a statistically significant correlation between (0.01) between the physical challenges and the inability of women to use the new technology according to the social status of the widows category. The value of significance is (0.00) and correlation coefficient (0.794) This increased the inability of the widows to use modern technology. The highest correlation between the physical challenges and the inability of women to use modern technology was due to the social situation. The divorced group had a correlation value of (0.799) and the smallest correlation value for single women (0.768). Recommendations of the study: To raise awareness of the correct use of modern technology and explain the social roles played by the mirrors in light of the widening gap between modern technology and the tasks of princes.

Abd El Zaher,
Y. M
The phenomenon of unemployment is a humanitarian phenomenon that complicates many studies because it is one of the engines of change that may go beyond the limits of the problem and become a threat to the apparent security. This concern is due to the fact that the issue of reducing unemployment has become one of the main objectives of the Egyptian labor market. The study aims to shed light on: The outputs of higher education are an additional burden on the Egyptian labor market. There is a clear imbalance between the skills required and the existing skills due to the inflexibility of the current education system. The modern requirements of the labor market are not limited to updating the scientific material, The professional market depends on information technology, which led to the low employment opportunities of these young people, who remained in the confusion between delivery to the extent and waiting for new opportunities for rehabilitation and training to keep abreast of progress. Problem and knowledge of the reasons for inadequate outputs of university education for the labor market.
There is a conflict in which the student lives in the labor market after graduating from the university to the labor market is the result of either a weakness in the absorption of the labor market to prepare the graduates and I research this scientific rationality in the disclosure of the relationship between the outputs of education and the labor market and I graduates suffer from social problems such as the problem of unemployment and migration problems Which is considered to have a negative impact on society and its relations. And employment policies in Egypt and reduce unemployment and thus achieve sustainable development, which aims to consolidate a national program aimed at combating unemployment and development and opening new outlets for employment are available to young people with certificates through the following questions:
To what extent did methodological programs achieve employment policies in the vocational aspirations of youth in the labor market?
Did these programs solve the problem of unemployment?
Employment and unemployment are important indicators of production?

Sustainable development was the main issue that attracted many countries in the world, and was considered as the basis to save ground our environment for our generations and the coming ones. The awareness of the importance of environmental issues was not only recognized by the developed countries, but rather by underdevelopment ones. The industrial countries were much concerned with this issue because the industrial process has much effect on environment.
As one of the industrial countries, Egypt Arabia showed a great concern to the environmental issues and the Egypt government was most concerned with maintaining its natural resources demanding the private sector to play its role towards the environment.
Based on the above, an empirical study was conducted to study and analysis the environmental costs in the Egypt industrial sector, to highlight the extent of their concern to environmental issues and the nature of the environmental costs conducted by their firms.
The study has begun with an illustration of the environmental pollution and the industrial impacts on environment, and also an illustration of the concepts and nature of environmental costs and the methods of dealing with them through a number of previous case studies.
However the empirical study depended upon collecting its data study through a survey questionnaire spreads on the industrial sector, which concluded several results such as for example that the most important environmental impacts were gases and waste water, and that most firms are aware of these issues and, therefore, their concern to the environmental issues has increased through advertising and training their employees.
The study has also shown that most of the firms don’t have especial departments to manage environmental costs because the lake of its output system and the difficulty of tracking these kind of cost. The study also concluded that there were no standard for differentiating between the environmental operating costs and the environmental capital costs, and that the most common accepted cost to this sector was firefighting and radiations costs.
