Abstract The aim of this paper is to identify a technique detoxify the industrial waste water using metal oxide nanoparticles. Waste from manufacturing or chemical processes in industries contributes pollution. Industrial usually contains specific and readily identifiable compounds. It destroys aquatic life reduces its reproductive ability. Eventually it hazardous human life. Most major have tr...

Waterborne diseases represent a significant public health risk worldwide and can originate from contact with water contaminated with human fecal material. We describe a real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) method that targets a genetic marker of the human-associated Bacteroides dorei for identification of human fecal pollution in ambient water samples. The following protocol includes water sample ...

In this paper we study on the report on heavy metal ions pollution and strategies to reduce metal ion exposure to human and environment by using non-thermal plasma technology. We find that plasma pollution control technology is more significant than others technology because of its advantages such as smaller space volume, lower cost, higher treatment and energy efficiencies. It is found that th...

Outdoor high-voltage equipment is exposed to moisture, rain and pollution. Water droplets on insulators influence negatively the material-aging process. A numerical procedure is presented which simulates the droplet behavior in a strong electric field. It consists in an iteration over an electric and a mechanical sub-problem to solve a coupled system of boundary value problems on the free domai...

A technique which employs nonfluorescing membrane filters and specific fluoresceinisothiocynate-labeled antiserum has been successfully used in the identification and enumeration of known species of Escherichia coli which have been added to natural populations of bacteria found in water. The quantitative results compared favorably with those of standard tests. The use of a dissecting microscope...

At the turn of the twentieth century, water pollution was the primary vector spreading waterborne disease and a public health issue. In the Great Lakes basin, unprecedentedly high mortality from typhoid fever prompted a conference of federal and provincial public health officials in 1910. Three related initiatives resulted: the provincial government amended the Public Health Act in 1912; feder...

Background: Continuous expansion of potable water pollution sources is one of the main concerns of water suppliers, therefore measures such as water safety plan (WSP), have been taken into account to control these sources of pollution. The aim of this study was to identify probable risks and threatening hazards to drinking water quality in Lighvan village along with assessment of bank filtratio...

[1] Urban water conservation is typically achieved through prescriptive regulations, including the rationing of water for particular uses and requirements for the installation of particular technologies. A significant shift has occurred in pollution control regulations toward market-based policies in recent decades. We offer an analysis of the relative merits of market-based and prescriptive ap...
