One of the main aims of water resource planners and managers is to estimate and predict the parameters of groundwater quality so that they can make managerial decisions. In this regard, there have many models developed, proposing better management in order to maintain water quality. Most of these models require input parameters that are either hardly available or time-consuming and expensive to...

BACKGROUND As an appropriate tool, membrane process is used for desalination of brackish water, in the production of drinking water. The present study aims to investigate desalination processes of brackish water of Qom Province in Iran. METHODS This study was carried out at the central laboratory of Water and Wastewater Company of the studied area. To this aim, membrane processes, including n...

Effects of wastewater discharge on the coastal area in Gaza strip Palestine are not fully investigated. This study investigated effect physical and chemical properties marine water over a period 2 year. Sea sediment samples were collected from about 20 different sites. The sediments wastewater/sea mixing zone at depth 0, 2.5 5 m column direct discharging pipe line location similarly other locat...

nowadays, much attention has been paid on using geostatistical methods for estimation of spatial parameters, either using the variables of these parameters (kriging) or auxiliary variables (cokriging), in water and soil sciences. the quality of ground water for agriculture is very important; however, it is expensive and time consuming to measure parameters such as sar, na, ca, th, tds and ec. t...

The present investigation deals with limnobiotic status of the Almatti reservoir from February, 2003 to January, 2005. The study revealed that there exists a fluctuations of the physical factors viz., rainfall, humidity, air and water temperature, pH and electrical conductivity (EC), and chemical factors viz., dissolved oxygen (DO), free carbon dioxide, total alkalinity, total hardness, calcium...

Water contamination is indeed a worldwide problem that threatens public health, environmental protection, and agricultural productivity. The distinctive attributes of machine learning (ML)-based modelling can provide in-depth understanding into increasing water quality challenges. This study presents the development multi-expression programming (MEP) based predictive model for parameters, i.e.,...

The physicochemical qualities of a typical rural-based river were assessed over a 12-month period from August 2010 to July 2011 spanning the spring, summer, autumn and winter seasons. Water samples were collected from six sampling sites along Tyume River and analysed for total nitrogen, orthophosphate, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), electrical conductiv...

Due to pressure of human activity, urbanization and industrialization, the ground water sources are degraded gradually; therefore pure, safe, healthy and odorless drinking water is a matter in deep concern. There are many pollutants in ground water due to sewage viz., organic and inorganic pollutants, heavy metals, pesticides, fluoride etc; the purpose was to ascertain the quality of water from...
