The Anaerobic–Swing Aerobic–Anoxic–Oxic (ASAO) process was developed to tackle problems such as temperature sensitivity during the Anaerobic–Oxic–Anoxic (AOA) process. By introducing a swing zone (S zone) with adjustable...

Aquifer health assessment is essential for sustainable groundwater management, particularly in semi-arid regions with challenging geological conditions. This study presents a novel methodology for assessing aquifer health in the Barakar River Basin,...

Polyphenols show promising application prospects as a novel natural disinfectant for drinking water. This study employed a simulated pipe network system to investigate the effects of tea polyphenols at an initial concentration of 5 mg/L on the charac...

This study presents an elastic one-dimensional numerical model to simulate the filling process of a large-scale, partially drained pipeline with an undulating profile, incorporating bypass systems. The model uses the Method of Characteristics to solv...

While at the global level, water stress does not seem to present a serious threat to the sustainability of freshwater withdrawal and use, the situation appears much grimmer if a closer look is given to the status of the freshwater resources at basin...

Processing of meat waste into meat and bone meal generates wastewater that must be properly treated to minimize its environmental impact. In addition to its high organic load, it contains microorganisms, including pathogens, that pose a threat to hum...

Taking the coastal area of Binhai County, Jiangsu Province, as an example, this study first investigated the basic natural geography and the regional geological and hydrogeological conditions of the study area, and then carried out in-depth geophysic...

This study investigated the impact of land use change on water quality in the Xinxian River Basin amidst rapid urbanization. While previous studies have predominantly focused on single-scale buffer analyses or specific land use types, the interaction...

Shanxi Province, a key energy base and water source in China, has long borne the responsibility of supplying external resources. Ensuring the security of its water–energy–food (WEF) resilience has remained a persistent challenge for local...

Statistical distributions play a crucial role in water resources management and civil engineering, particularly for analyzing data variability and predicting rare events with extremely long return periods (e.g., T = 1000 years, T = 10,000 years). Amo...
