Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRemoval of Hydrogen Sulphide from WaterS. Edwards, R. Alharthi, A.E. GhalyProblem statement: The concentration of H2S in groundwater is a significant problem in various areas across Canada. Hydrogen sulphide dissolves in ground water imparting undesirable taste and irritating rotten egg smell which makes it unpalatable. Ingestion of sulphides through drinking water can result in stomach discomfort, nausea and vomiting. Humans exposed to high concentrations of H2S for prolonged periods show … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 26 Aug 2011 · 15,123 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Integration of Network-Based Models for Spill Response and Homeland SecurityDavid E. Amstutz, Rakesh Bahadur, Jonathan M. Pickus et al.The integration of three hydraulic GIS (Geographic Information System) applications is presented which represent the water infrastructures of cities and urban areas and US streams and rivers. The water infrastructures include drinking water distribution systems, wastewater collection systems and source water. The National Research Council[1] states that problems dealing with the collective behavior of networks such as river systems, water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,729 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of Physicochemical Parameters in a Rainwater Harvesting and Treatment System Modeled Using the Yahtun Algorithm in Native Communities of Northern PeruEli Morales-Rojas, Edwin Adolfo Díaz Ortiz, José Emmanuel Cruz de La Cruz et al.The inhabitants of the native communities of northern Peru do not have drinking water systems, generating serious health impacts. In this sense, rainwater harvesting systems have become an alternative for these areas. Therefore, the objective of this study was to predict the physicochemical parameters in a rainwater collection and treatment system, modeled by means of a novel “Yahtun” algorithm. The … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 13 Feb 2025 · 5,149 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDietary Management Strategies to Mitigate Decreased Feed Intake Associated with Terminal Implant Administration in Finishing Beef SteersAlexandria Kelly, Warren Rusche, Forest Francis et al.Re-implanting with a terminal implant often reduces subsequent dry matter intake (DMI). Crossbred steers (n = 27, initial body weight = 385 ± 30.8 kg) were used to assess the effects of locomotion immediately after terminal implantation and increased forage inclusion 7-d post-implantation on feed and water intake, rumination, and activity. Steers were implanted with 100 mg trenbolone acetate and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 30 Oct 2024 · 4,854 accessesView PDFCite
