background: due to the lack of proper rail road and air transportation, most commutes in iran are carried out by buses. in most cases, the water in the busses is used for passengers for drinking usage. although this kind of water source has provided convince for the travelers, it could be a great risk in disease outbreak. the aim of this study is to determine the water quality in commuting buse...

fuzzy water quality index (fwqi) was applied in order to assess the degree of drinking water resources in yazd province, iran. thisstudy has also offered the creation of a new fuzzy water quality index (fwqi) to evaluate this tool’s applicability. 12 chemicalparameters including toxic and non-toxic heavy metals measured in 71 groundwater samples collected from drinking water resourcesin rural a...

Weanling, male and female, stroke-prone, spontaneously hypertensive rats (SP/SHR) were fed either a regular diet, a low protein diet derived from fish tissue + 1% saline drinking water, or the fish diet + 1% saline + daily injections of 0.1 mg Enovid/100 g bw/sc. After 48 days, the Enovid-treated animals developed acute and lethal strokes characterized by massive thrombonecrogenic lesions of th...

In regional and rural areas of NSW, drinking water is provided by 107 local water utilities serving a total population of some 1.7 million and operating 323 water supply systems. NSW Health exercises public health oversight of these regional water utilities through the NSW Health Drinking Water Monitoring Program, which provides guidance to water utilities on implementing elements of the Austra...

with a mean precipitation rate, much lower than that of the world, iran is among the countries that face severe water challenges. the present study has dealt with the evaluation of hydrochemistry of faryab spring water in hormozgan province, iran. four different composite water samples have been analyzed to detect major anions, cations, total dissolved solids, electrical conductivity, ph, and s...

Most climate related hazards in Bangladesh are linked to water. The climate vulnerable poor—the poorest and most marginalized communities living in remote villages along Bangladesh’s coastal zone that are vulnerable to climate change impacts and who possess low adaptive capacity are most affected by lack of access to safe water sources. Many climate vulnerable poor households depend on small is...

abstract the irrigation water quality is not suitable for crop production in most regions of iran. it is estimated that almost six bcm/year of saline water enter to the rivers, in iran. the saline water can potentially use for growing of tolerant crops with a specific management on the agriculture practice. one of the management methods is the conjunction use of fresh and saline water. in this ...

The detection of many new compounds in surface water, groundwater and drinking water raises considerable public concern, especially when human health based guideline values are not available it is questioned if detected concentrations affect human health. In an attempt to address this question, we derived provisional drinking water guideline values for a selection of 50 emerging contaminants re...

Abstract Remote monitoring of solar still systems is an interesting step for performance analysis and supervision. In this article, a system developed integrated to system. The parameters considered (such as air temperatures, relative humidity, etc) have been posted on webpage via the Internet Things (IoT) technique. For this, ThingSpeak platform MathWorks used. results demonstrate that ground ...
