This study evaluated the adsorption of Cr6+ from aqueous solution using dead biomass of aquatic plants Salvinia molesta (Kariba weed) and Typha latifolia (broadleaf cattail). The batch experiments were carried out to study the effects of pH, adsorbent dose, initial metal concentration, contact time, agitation speed in rotation per minute (rpm), and...

Groundwater is the major resource for drinking and irrigation purposes in urban areas of Abaya-Chemo sub-basin of Great Rift Valley, Ethiopia. There is an incredible increase in demand in the sub-basin for good-quality groundwater resources. However, the exhaustive irrigation and rapid urbanization has posed a serious threat to groundwater quality ...

An accurate and complete rainfall record is prerequisite for climate studies. The purpose of this research study was to evaluate the homogeneity of the rainfall series for the Mae Klong River Basin in Thailand. Monthly rainfall data of eight stations in the Mae Klong River Basin for the period 1971–2015 were used. The double mass curve analysis was...

The use of ASP (alkali–surfactant–polymer) slug could be affected by the use of high hardness water, especially when injecting an alkaline agent (Na2CO3). The injection water quality of the TFT field is not adequate for cEOR (chemical enhanced oil recovery), because it contains a high hardness rate up to 160°f (report DC R&D 2019). With a TDS rate ...

Water pollution is increasing due to urbanization and industrialization. Waste water pollution raised concern because of its influence on plants and humans. Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) is used for the removal of pollutants because of its phytoremediation efficiency. In this study, water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) has been tested for ...

Use of benthic macroinvertebrates has been in vogue as indicator organisms for water quality monitoring since long. Traditional methods of water quality monitoring incorporate mostly monitoring of physicochemical parameters. However, it is the biomonitoring studies that could help in more accurate water quality monitoring. Due to anthropogenic impa...

The link between rainfall and groundwater recharge in the Rio del Rey Basin, which is of socio-economic importance to Cameroon, is poorly understood. Accordingly, the stable isotopes in monthly rainfall from January to December 2012 (in Lobe and Mundemba) and 52 surface water and groundwater samples were investigated. High values of δ18O and δD wer...
