Studies measuring the energy costs of wading in water have been limited to higher walking speeds in straight lines, in deep water. However, much foraging in water, by both humans and other primates, is conducted in the shallows and at low speeds of locomotion that include elements of turning, as befits searching for cryptic or hidden foods within a patch. The present study brings together data ...
The physiological mechanisms underlying the 'cost of reproduction' remain under debate, though oxidative stress has emerged as a potential candidate. The 'oxidative cost of reproduction' has received considerable attention with regards to food and antioxidant availability; however, the limitation of water availability has thus far been neglected. In this study, we experimentally examined the co...
This study presents a cost minimization model for the design of water distribution networks. The model uses a recently developed harmony search optimization algorithm while satisfying all the design constraints. The harmony search algorithm mimics a jazz improvisation process in order to find better design solutions, in this case pipe diameters in a water distribution network. The model also in...
The dataset presented in this article are related to the research article entitled "Hybrid coagulation-UF processes for spent filter backwash water treatment: a comparison studies for PAFCl and FeCl3 as a pre-treatment" (Ebrahimi et al., 2017) [1]. This article reports the cost estimation for treating produced spent filter backwash water (SFBW) during water treatment in Isfahan- Iran by various...
Relevant implementation of the EU Water Framework Directive with regard to mine water pollution of downstream water bodies requires pressure-impact assessment and catchment-scale economic optimisation of abatement measures. However, pressure-impact assessment is bound to be uncertain. This is because mine water pollution is often an unknown combination of pollution loads, from both known mine w...
Reverse osmosis (RO) technology has been widely applied to water treatment such as seawater desalination, and large RO plants are many in operation around the world. Moreover, much larger plants will be required to secure sufcient water resource in the near future because global water shortage and quality problems are still getting more serious. Mega-ton Water System pr...
the increase in water demand and its services due to population growth and the raising of the standards of living, health, and hygiene along with the limitation of water resources, droughts, and climate change has attracted water specialists and planners to explore the use of unconventional water resources, such as sewage and saline waters. moreover, industrial and rural wastewater disposal and...
Residents of the Hudson-Mohawk River Watershed and the state of New York face serious challenges during coming years to maintain water infrastructure, including both water supply and sewage treatment. For example, maintaining wastewater infrastructure is expected to cost more than $36 billion by 2028 (NY-DEC 2008). Given this extremely high cost, one of the few potential opportunities for subst...
In this study we analyze the evolution of operating cost inefficiency for the English and Welsh water industry over the period 1995-2001 by estimating an heteroskedastic stochastic variable cost frontier. The main aim of this paper is to provide an overall picture of the industry cost inefficiency, as we consider both the water and sewerage companies and the smaller water only companies. The ma...
Feed-water heating repowering is defined as using gas turbine(s) flue gasses energy for recovery by steam plant feed water heaters. Minimizing related total cost in new thermal system is the critical subject, beside of this purpose an optimal balance between capital cost investment and exergy destruction should be considered. In this research feed water heating repowering modeling of Shahid Ra...
