Brackish water treatment by Ceramic TiO2 Low-Pressure Nanofiltration Membranes
Water and wastewater reuse
The application of ceramic Nanofiltration (NF) membrane in brackish water treatment is increasing due to strict water quality standards. Ceramic NF is a widely used membrane process and has replaced reverse osmosis (RO) membranes in many applications due to lower energy consumption and higher flux...
Drainage network flow anomaly classification based on XGBoost
Environmental data analysis and modelling
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...
Coastline change rate estimation on the southern coastal districts of Tamil Nadu, India using the multi temporal Google Earth images and GIS based statistical approach
Ecology, environmental change and management
Coastal erosion is the process of wearing away material from the coastal profile due to an imbalance in the supply and export of material from a particular section of the coast which cause property damage, and the loss of land. This study investigates the rate of erosion and accretion along the...
Determination of Parameters for Watershed delineation using various satellite derived Digital Elevation Models and its accuracy
Water Resources Management
Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is an inevitable tool for many applications, such as natural resource management. In the present scenario, it is available with various resolutions from meter to sub-meter accuracy. These data are used extensively to explore the river basin's physical features by...
The Influence of Ecological Environment Protection Mechanism on the Economic Development and Management Mechanism of Rural Enterprises
Ecology, environmental change and management
The purpose is to analyze the economic development and management mechanism of rural enterprises, and explore the role of ecological environment protection mechanism in the economic development of rural enterprises. First, the related theories are analyzed and expounded; then, the participants of...
Experimental investigation of hybrid composites using biowastes and Calotropis gigantea: an eco-friendly approach
Biowaste
The wastes are in many forms consist of organic materials like human, medical, food, plastics, construction waste etc. many researchers are focused on the waste management to gives more importance to the environment. The bio degradable waste was used in this research with naturals fibers. The need...
IMPACT OF BIO-COMPETITIVE EXCLUSION ON NITRATE-REDUCING BACTERIA IN OIL RESERVOIR WATER TREATMENT
Water and Wastewater Treatment
In the presence of nitrogen oxides, nitrate-reducing bacteria (NRB) may use nitrate as an electron acceptor, reduce nitrate to nitrite, and finally convert nitrite to nitrogen or ammonium (NO and N2O). Studies have shown that BCX (Bio-Competitive Exclusion) is a viable , ecologically benign, and low...
Water quality assessment in coastal lagoons using improved back propagation deep neural network with PH level compensation sensors in smart environment
Water Quality
In coastal lagoons, eutrophication is a significant ecological and environmental problem. The majority of the pollution and deterioration problems that coastal zones and their ecosystems face are due to human influence through urbanization and industrialization. In this research, evaluations of...
Use of waste glass powder in improving the properties of expansive clay soils
Solid Waste Management
Expansive soils pose a danger to the foundations of engineering structures due to their poor engineering properties. These soils are usually treated using mechanical techniques, and chemical stabilizers. However, the production of these chemicals is not friendly to the environment, thus a need to...
Groundwater Vulnerability Assessment Phenomenon using DRASTIC & Modified DRASTIC Modeling validated with Nitrate Concentration.
Water Quality
Urbanized areas groundwater vulnerability and contamination are serious issues that require due attention. There are other models, notably the DRASTIC models employed to assess the vulnerability of groundwater. In a modified version of the DRASTIC model known as anthropogenic influence was...
