This study provides a comprehensive review of the efforts utilized in measurement water quality parameters (WQPs) with focus on total dissolved solids (TDS) and suspended (TSS). The current method used TDS TSS includes conventional field gravimetric approaches. These methods are limited due to associated cost labor, spatial coverages. Remote Sensing (RS) applications have, however, been over pa...

The liquors were found to be adulterated with impure water from different sources. The measurement of pH, chloride concentration, total dissolved solid, total suspended solid and heavy metals reveals the adulteration in liquors. The duplicate brands contain rectified spirit, caramel, coloring agents, flavoring agents and essential oils which are not according to specifications. The adulterated ...

The Middle Iskar cascade is situated along the middle course of the Iskar River (Bulgaria) after the capital city Sofia and has three small hydroelectric power plants that were put into operation by the end of 2012. The aim of this study was to evaluate the self-purification potential of water in the reservoirs of these plants as an important and necessary condition for their ecological functio...

A study was conducted to evaluate the correlation between selected physico-chemical parameters of water and their effects on growth of Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in raceway system in the area of Sarab Gerdu, Iran. The samples were collected from twenty raceways (270- day old fish, surface area 55m2 flow rate 150 ls-1 total production 15 T). Physico-chemical parameters were the fluctuat...

The present study investigated the coupling effect of biodegradation and media filtration in treating hydrocarbon contaminated water. The study recorded reductions in total petroleum hydrocarbon, total dissolved solids, turbidity and microbial load. The study was essentially a simulated pump and treat process that involved the pumping of hydrocarbon contaminated water for treatment in a locally...

Water quality is commonly reported with respect to the minerals that comprise the total dissolved solids, often together with COD, BOD, pH and other components. For ease of use by consumers, the quality parameters are mostly related to usage, i.e. water quality for domestic use, livestock or irrigation, etc. When diatom populations are used as water quality indicators a different system is nece...

Addahole stream belongs to Kabbinale forest of Gundia region. The water quality and ornamental fish diversity were examined. The stream water is fast and slow flowing with clear water and rocky, sandy, leafy substrate. This stream is about 14 kms long, perennial and has different habitats with diverse ornamental fish population. Results revealed the mean values of water quality of all samples c...
