background: trihalomethanes are toxic and dangerous substances that are formed in the presence of organic materials when water is chlorinated for disinfection. the iranian national standard, world health organization, european :union:, u.s. environmental protection agency and international agency for research in cancer standards have established a maximum contaminant level for trihalomethanes f...

laboratory degradation studies were performed in water at ph 4.0, 7.0 and 9.2 using prochloraz (450 ec) formulation at the rates of 1.0 (t1) and 2.0 (t2) î¼g/ml. water samples collected on 0 (2h),3,7,15,30,45,60 and 90 days after treatments were processed for residue analysis of prochloraz by hplc-uv detector. in 60 days, dissipation was 89.12-90.53 % at ph 4.0, 84.10-88.17 % at ph 7.0, and 92....

Background: This retrospective study aimed to investigate the physicochemical properties of drinking water sources in Ethiopia and compare the water quality with the health-based target. For this purpose, the water quality database of Ethiopian Public Health Institute (EPHI) from 2010 to 2016 was used. Methods: The concentration and other properties of the water samples were analyzed according...

Water is used for various human activities such as drinking, bathing, washing and recreation. The physicochemical as well as microbiological qualities of water samples collected over a period of ten months from five swimming pools in five randomly-selected hotels in Osogbo metropolis, Southwestern Nigeria were assessed. The collection of the fifty water samples spanned the dry and rainy seasons...

the presence of cr(vi) in groundwater resources is governed by ph and eh of water and its compounds are generally soluble and have more toxicicity and mobility in oxidizing environments. in this article, the cr concentration in ophiolite units, in sediments, and in groundwater resources, and also its potential to contaminate the environment have been investigated in southeast of birjand. during...
