Identification and Quantification of Microplastic in Sewage systems by TED-GC-MS
(Corresponding) Altmann K., Goedecke C., Bannick C., Abusafia A., Scheid C., Steinmetz H., Braun U.
Topic:
Microplastics in the marine environment
Over the last years, the number of publications reporting the amount of microplastic (MP) all over the world increased rapidly. But harmonised sampling, sample preparation and analysis strategies are missing. Commonly used methods are very time consuming and not comparable to each other. Hence,...Read more

Water Security of rural water supply systems in super typhoon Haiyan affected areas
GOMBA F.
Topic:
Water and climate services - challenges and user-tailored developments
The rural water supply systems in the countryside necessitate sustainability and security assessment to ensure long-term and safe water supply to target beneficiaries. The objective of the study is to analyse the hidden threatening factors in water supply system and recommends sustainability and...Read more

Risk Evaluation of Community-Based Water Systems from Nonpoint-Source Pollution in Eastern Visayas, Philippines
(Corresponding) GOMBA F., PERANTE W.
Topic:
Hydrology and water resources
This study evaluated the risk posed by nonpoint-source (NPS) pollution to the 266 community-based water systems (CBWS) in Eastern Visayas, Philippines. Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques, together with Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) was used to develop a Nonpoint-Source...Read more

Enhanced-Electrocoagulation For Organic Matter Removal From Surface Drinking Water Sources: Operational Parameters And Energy Consumption
(Corresponding) Daraei H., Intwala P., Awad J., Bertone E., Chow C., Duan J., Stewart R., Leuuwen J.
Topic:
Water treatment
In this study, an Enhanced Electro-Coagulation (En-EC) technique is described for the removal of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from surface drinking water sources. Assessment of the En-EC technique included investigation of the impacts of operational factors on the organic removal efficiency (R%)...Read more

Chemical And Isotopic Characterization Of The Thermal Fluids In The South-western Margin of the Loutros-Feres-Soufli Tertiary Basin in Northern Greece. Case Study: Geothermal Area of Aristino
Dalampakis P., Spyridonos E., (Corresponding) Tassi M., Karalis P., Dotsika E., Pagonis G.
Topic:
Hydrology and water resources
In this work we examine the hydrochemical and isotopic characteristics of the thermal fluids in the Aristino geothermal area in the southwestern margin of the Loutros-Feres-Soufli Tertiary basin (LFS), which is located west of Evros river in Northeastern Greece, in order to identify their possible...Read more

Chemical And Isotopic Characterization Of The Thermal Fluids Emerging From Nestos River Delta Basin in North Greece
Tassi M., (Corresponding) Karalis P., Dalampakis P., Spyridonos E., Diamantopoulos G., Dotsika E., Pagonis G.
Topic:
Hydrology and water resources
In this work we study the isotopic and hydrochemical properties of waters emerging from Nestos river delta basin (Erasmio, Eratio and Myrodato), which is forming the continental margin of the broader graben type basin of Prinos that includes the Nestos delta and the offshore extension between...Read more

Water Losses Assessments to support decision making in WSS management
(Corresponding) Pietrucha-Urbanik K., Tchórzewska-Cieślak B.
Topic:
Water policy, management and society
In order to reduce costs related to water supply service, modernization measures should be carried out to water losses. The paper presents an analysis and assessment of water losses carried out based on data provided by a water utility company. The basic indicators of water loss according to the...Read more
