Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleQuality of Potable Water in KuwaitFawzia M. Al-Ruwaih, Jasem M. Alhumoud, Sara M. Al-MutairiProblem statement: Kuwait is an arid country with limited natural water resources. As such, Kuwait produces its drinking water using the Multi-Stage-Flash method (MSF) in distillation plants to produce distilled water from sea water. The distilled water is blended with the brackish groundwater in different blending ratios, to produce drinking water, as recommended by World Health Organization (WHO). Approach: The … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,341 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Carrageenan on the Quality of Purple Sweet Potato Frozen Dough and Steamed BunsQiu-Yu Wang, Zhenxing Tang, Lei Wu et al.In order to enhance the stability of purple sweet potato steamed dough and the quality of resulting steamed buns, the influence of carrageenan conditions (0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, mass fraction) on the dough’s moisture distribution, freezable water content, rheological properties, microstructure, and on the specific volumes, water activity, texture, and color quality of steamed buns were studied. Adding carrageenan … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 7 Apr 2026 · 1,576 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPrediction 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
