Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSuitability Evaluation of Groundwater for Irrigation, Drinking and Industrial PurposesM. A. Hakim, A. S. Juraimi, M. Begum et al.Problem statement: Groundwater is an important source of freshwater for agricultural, drinking and domestic uses in many regions of the world including Bangladesh. Demand of groundwater has been increasing day by day for irrigation by bringing more area under cultivation. As a drinking water the bottled water market currently has an average annual growth rate of 7.4% between 2002 and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,644 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractReview of Blue-Green Infrastructure in Some Selected CountriesTariku Neme Afata, Seyoum Derib, Reda NemoBlue-Green Infrastructures (BGI) integrate solutions implemented to enhance water management and landscape values for more climate-resilient and livable cities. It has created an opportunity to renew the natural structure of water balance in cities and rural through the increase in rainwater retention and enlargement of permeable areas. The objective of this review is to assess the blue-green infrastructures of selected … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 4 Aug 2022 · 7,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating the Effects of Landfill in Azad-Shahr City on the Physicochemical Properties of GroundwaterSara Abdollahi, Safieh Javadinejad, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Vijay P. SinghLocations near landfills have a lot of potential for contamination of groundwater, because there is a high potential for contamination with emulsion in these areas. In this study, the quality of physic chemical and carbon-organic materials (TOC) of water wells around landfill of Azad-Shahr city was investigated. To accomplish this purpose, sampling of water from seven deep wells around the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 3 Jun 2019 · 7,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReduction of Microbial Contamination of Outlet Waste in Urban Wastewater Treatment PlantsSona Pazdar, Saeid Eslamian, Hossein Gholami, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariThe available research was managed to monitor the physicochemical and microbiological features of treatment plants. The wastewater treatment herb sewage is a straight pollution input source for anthropogenic pollution. The sediment information ideas to an urban drainage trench as a secondary point pollution source while the organotins information highlights the presence of other spread sources, special to this material. wastewater … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Sep 2019 · 7,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeochemistry of Siloam and Tshipise Geothermal Springs, Limpopo Province, South AfricaOlatunde Samod Durowoju, John Ogony Odiyo, Georges-Ivo Ekosse EkosseGeothermal springs are natural geological phenomena that occur throughout the world, and South Africa (SA) is endowed with several springs of this nature. Most of the geothermal springs in SA (31%) are found in Limpopo Province. Assessment of geochemistry of Siloam and Tshipise geothermal springs were undertaken during 2014 winter (May – July) and summer (October – December) seasons. Water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 30 Mar 2018 · 8,533 accessesView PDFCite
HypothesisOpen accessIn the abstractMapping of Mn and Pb as Effect of Landfill Pollutant based on Ordinary Kriging InterpolationRokhana Dwi Bekti, Kris Suryowati, Heruna TantySpatial interpolation is an important method, getting information about pollutan from landfill location in groundwater quality mapping. Ordinary kriging is used to predict the unknown values in some locations, based on the autocorrelations among the nearby locations. In this research, ordinary kriging interpolation was used to divine the chemical characteristic of Manganese (Mn) and Lead (Pb), then 22 samples, around … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 19 May 2017 · 7,055 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContamination of Nitrate in Groundwater and Evaluation of Health Risk in Bachok, Kelantan: A Cross-Sectional StudyAida Soraya Shamsuddin, Sharifah Norkhadijah Syed Ismail, Emilia Zainal Abidin et al.High concentrations of nitrate through drinking water have been associated with health problems. This cross sectional study sought to determine the level of nitrate concentrations in private well water and the association to the disease caused by nitrate among population of Bachok, Kelantan. The concentrations of nitrate in 256 wells were sampled from September to October 2015. About 126 respondents … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 23 Jan 2016 · 9,471 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreliminary Evaluation of a Permeable Reactive Barrier for Reducing Groundwater Nitrate Transport from a Large Onsite Wastewater SystemCharles Humphrey, Sushama Pradhan, Eban Bean et al.A permeable reactive barrier was installed between a large Onsite Wastewater System (OWS) and a monitoring well located down-gradient from the OWS. Groundwater samples from the well had shown elevated and increasing concentrations of NO3--N (>20 mg L-1 for 2 years). The barrier was constructed using woodchips from various tree species that were placed in a trench excavated to approximately … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 25 Aug 2015 · 7,372 accessesView PDFCite
