Recent Advancements in Plant-Based Natural Coagulant Application in the Water and Wastewater Coagulation-Flocculation Process: Challenges and Future Perspectives
Water and Wastewater Treatment
Growing environmental awareness coupled with stricter regulations has pushed various industries to look for appropriate technologies to treat wastewater. Natural coagulants have recently been used as part of water and wastewater technologies due to their performance, cost-effectiveness when compared...
Evaluation of waste water treatment technologies by combined analytical hierarchy process and grey relational analysis
Water treatment
Recycling of wastewater is an important issue as it is used for many important applications such as industries, agriculture, household applications and due to water scarcity across the different countries. Wastewater treatment is an important activity as it protects human being and the ecosystem...
Role of natural coagulants in the removal of heavy metals from different wastewaters: principal mechanisms, applications, challenges, and prospects
Water and Wastewater Treatment
Industrial wastewater has become a great concern due to high concentrations of several hazardous contaminants, particularly heavy metals. Heavy metal contamination and its consequences for human health and the environment have gained interest in developing low-cost, long-term cleanup technologies...
Arid Lands Flood Evaluation and Mitigation Measures Using HEC-HMS Model and Best Management Practices (BMPs)
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
This study emphasis on draining and slowing runoff volumes in arid and semi-arid lands regions using HEC-HMS model linked with various Best Management Practices (BMPs) alternatives. The proposed methods may help significantly in reducing flash flood precipitation and improving instream water quality...

Circular Economy and public policies in the face of the new normality
Circular economy
The paradigm of Circular Economy within the framework of sustainable development has been consolidated in recent years. Nowadays, and given the urgency to adopt policies that allow to relaunch the economic activity after the crisis caused by the CoVid-19 pandemic, it is relevant to synthesise the...
Removal of Nitrate and Phosphate by Starch and Lanthanum Modified Montmorillonite
Water treatment
Unqualified treatment of the discharge of wastewater contains a large number of nitrogen and phosphorus and other nutrients, such wastewater into the water environment is easy to lead to eutrophication of water bodies, and cause harm to human health. In order to prepare a cost-effective, efficient...
Total Coliform Reduction in Drinking Water Based on Variations in Reverse Osmosis Membrane Pressure
Water and Wastewater Treatment
Water is the most important substance. Drinking water in the industry comes from raw water and is treated through a heating process. The results of laboratory tests on raw water used for drinking water are 41 MPN/100ml, so it is necessary to process raw water into drinking water using Reverse...
Artificial Neural Network and Weighted Arithmetic Indexing Approach for Surface Water Quality Assessment of the Brahmani River
Water Quality
An approach was used in this study to relate the predicted and calculated water quality index (WQI) of the Brahmani River. The WQI was predicted using an artificial neural network (ANN) tool, and the weighted Arithmetic Index technique was used to calculate the WQI (WAI). The WQI is calculated using...
Advanced deep learning method for Aerial image segmentation of landscape changes in pre-and post-disaster scenarios
Environmental data analysis and modelling
The precise analysis of conditions in the landscape before and aftermath of the disaster is a mandatory challenge in aerial image landscape monitoring. The change in patterns of landscape, damaged pathways, and damaged areas will have a major impact without monitoring and redevelopment. Therefore...
