The inherent uncertainty of the futures requires an adaptive water management (AWM) which can best be achieved by an integrated dialogue (ID) among water scientists, policy makers and stakeholders. To develop proposals of extended sustainability the regional climate vulnerability is to be approached through gradually-evaluated models. This paper proposes a protocol that supports AWM and ID, inc...

Urban drainage networks (UDN) carry urban wastewater to wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) in order to regenerate it before releasing it to the environment. Combined UDN (CUDN) carry both rain and wastewater together, which can overload the UDN and produce combined sewer overflows (CSO) that pollute the environment. Management of CUDN is receiving increasing attention from both researchers and ...

Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) aims at finding practical and sustainable solutions to water resource issues. Research and practice have shown that innovative methods and tools are not sufficient to implement IWRM - the concept needs to also be integrated in prevailing management paradigms and institutions. Water governance science addresses this human dimension by focusing on the a...

This paper present the possible alternative removal options for the development of safe drinking water supply in the arsenic-affected areas. Each alternative option was studied in the Environmental Engineering Laboratory at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kharagpur, India. In this paper conventional precipitation (Alum and Iron salt) and adsorption (With various types of adsorbent) method ...

Delhi, the capital city of India is facing many problems of water shortage which are exacerbated by the population growth, urbanization, industrialization and migration. As part of the WP 7.9 of the TECHNEAU integrated project, the feasibility of the OBM process combined with river bank filtration to provide a sustainable and safe drinking water supply for Delhi is investigated within this repo...

In this paper, the GIS technology and river water quality monitoring were integrated to design an intelligent water environment monitoring and disaster warning system. The designed system can not only provide web publishing service for water environment monitoring, but it can also prompt to the user the possibility of water disaster according to the change of some important parameters in water,...
