Toxic cyanobacterial blooms are a growing environmental problem, persisting in freshwater bodies globally, and potentially hazardous to populations that rely on surface freshwater supplies. Nature-based solution units (NBSUs) are effective and sustai...

The coexistence of antibiotics and heavy metals in water environments always results in greater toxicity compared to the single pollution. Consequently, the development of efficient and economical technologies for the removal of antibiotics and heavy...

The dynamic changes in plateau river ecosystems and the driving mechanisms of environmental factors have garnered significant attention. Phytoplankton, a core component of aquatic ecosystems, can directly reflect changes in the aquatic environment. T...

Identifying preferential paths for groundwater flow is one of the basics for understanding aquifer systems. Shallow free-surface aquifers often have flow directions (locally) similar to those of their surface counterparts, especially if surface and g...

Dialdehyde cellulose fabric (DACF) membranes with varying degrees of oxidation were fabricated using periodate oxidation and were employed for the chemical adsorption of amino-groups containing dyes from wastewater. The aldehyde group contents of DAC...

In refugee camps, Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) services are essential for health and well-being, yet they face sustainability challenges in post-emergency contexts. Despite considerable research on WASH services in urban and rural areas, a g...

This work develops a comprehensive review of the main conventional and emerging desalination processes. It presents the state of knowledge of the most known and investigated techniques, highlights their advantages and drawbacks, and draws appropriate...

In this study, we analyzed the effectiveness of a data visualization tool (dashboard) designed to provide insights to decision-makers about the vulnerability of water resources in the tri-national Upper Lempa River Basin (CARL) in the face of future...

This study introduces the modified sequent peak algorithm (MSPA 2024), an advanced reservoir design framework that incorporates resilience as a key performance metric alongside traditional measures like reliability and vulnerability. By integrating r...

Groundwater is a significant source of water, and evaluating its hydrochemical attributes, quality, and associated health risks holds paramount importance in guaranteeing safe water access for the population and fostering sustainable socio-economic p...
