Identifying and classifying anomalies in on-line monitoring systems of drainage systems is important to reduce urban water pollution. In the context of big data, the mini-batch K-means combined with the XGBoost drainage network abnormal flow identification and classification model is proposed to...

The objective of the study is to determine accumulation and translocation of heavy metals from soil to paddy straw irrigated with urban sewage wastewater in peri-urban region of Girudhumal subbasin area in Madurai. The soil samples were collected in seven locations irrigated with treated and...

In Jordan and as in many other Mediterranean countries olive oil production is one of the major agricultural production, it is estimated that the annual production of olive oil in Jordan approximately 21.5 thousand tons per year. O the other hand the process of olive oil extraction generates around...

Presence of metals even at trace levels in natural waters pose sever health risks. Heavy metals are introduced to coastal and marine environments through a variety of sources and activities including sewage and industrial effluents where Black Sea is not different. However, metals behave differently...

Increasing demand for water from agriculture, industrial and domestic sectors, resulted in stress on the water resources both from quantity and quality perspectives. Due to urbanization many of the dyeing units have shifted from urban to nearby rural areas. Here safe disposal of untreated effluent...

Wetlands are sensitive ecosystems. They provide various services to man, but have been degraded to a large extent. Wetlands are of great importance, therefore they should be evaluated and monitored periodically in a planned way. Undoubtedly, identifying threatening factors for wetlands properly and...

Uncontrolled disposal of urban and industrial wastewaters into the sea led to the fact that in mid eighties the Kasštela Bay, near the city of Split, Republic of Croatia, became one of the largest and most widely known pollution “hot-spot” areas of the Mediterranean region. The pollution of the Bay...

A set of anaerobic-anoxic-aerobic (A2/O) bio-reactor system was used to treat domestic sewage mixed with landfill leachate and fecal sewage in Datansha Sewage Treatment Plant in Guangzhou China. The experiment investigated the optimal mixing proportion of treating landfill leachate, fecal sewage...

This paper aims at a comparative evaluation of the total cost of urban sewage processing units for several treatment systems, appropriate mainly for small capacity plants. The studied systems are: Oxidation Ditch (O.D.), Trickling Filter (T.F.), Rotating Biological Contactor (R.B.C.), Compact...
