This paper describes research undertaken to develop an approach for facilitating an initial hazard assessment and risk characterisation for a proposed indirect potable reuse scheme, as part of the water safety plan recommended by the World Health Organization. The process involved a description and evaluation of the catchment, which was the sewerage system supplying the sewage treatment works t...

BACKGROUND Research has shown that the absence of electricity and potable water usually result in negative effects on one's health and is more likely to affect women than men. AIM To determine the extent to which alternate electrification and limited potable water, impacts on health. MATERIALS AND METHOD This study is informed by primary and secondary data, representing a sample size of 150...

The objective of the presented study was to develop a high-temporal-resolution stochastic rainwater harvesting (RWH) model for assessing dual benefits RWH: potable water savings and runoff reduction. Model inputs rainfall demand are used in manner, maintaining their natural pattern, while generating realistic noise temporal variability. dynamic solves mass-balance equation tank, logging all inf...

Over a Period of three months (summer), 108 samples of water collected from four hospitals in Tehran. They were taken from numerous potable and non-potable water, including main supply cisterns, calorifiers, hot and cold tap water, shower, cooling tower and drain of air condition system. Culturing of concentrated and non-concentrated water samples on Buffered Charcoal Yeast Extract (BCYE) Agar ...
