Coding Water Efficiency

McBrien R., (Corresponding) Tijani A.
Topic: 
Floods, droughts and water scarcity
Many Engineering projects involve the authoring of repetitive documentation. On one key project that aimed to track clean water leakage from pipelines across a major city, this was the case. This project involved constructing chambers around clean water mains that enabled a tracking device to be...Read more

Evaluating the water quality of stormwater runoffs in urban area

(Corresponding) Yang F., Gato-Trinidad S., Hossain I.
Topic: 
Heavy metals in the environment
This paper presents the results of stormwater quality monitoring from four constructed wetlands located in residential and industrial catchments. Preliminary results revealed that pollutants’ types and concentrations vary depending on the catchments’ characteristics. It is found that the...Read more

Unveiling the transformation of dissolved organic matter in drinking water treatments based on FT-ICR-MS and spectral analysis

Yueting W., (Corresponding) Hang X., Tianpei M.
Topic: 
Water treatment
The use of fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer (FT-ICR MS) and fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (EEM) systematically provide more comprehensive information on the changes in dissolved organic matter (DOM) composition and characteristic in water treatments. Therefore,...Read more

Assessment of water reuse potential for the cultivation of the red microalga Galdieria sulphuraria

Carone M., Costamagna L., Zanetti M., (Corresponding) Riggio V.
Topic: 
Sustainable production and management of biomass
The red microalga Galdieria sulphuraria has emerged as a promising biotechnological platform for large-scale cultivation and production of high-value compounds, such as the blue pigment phycocyanin. However, its extremophilic nature requires cultivation in an appropriately acidified culture medium...Read more

Purification of municipal wastewater by electrocoagulation process

(Corresponding) Leovac Maćerak A., Duduković N., Slijepčević N., Volarić A., Tomašević Pilipović D., Bečelić-Tomin M., Kerkez Đ.
Topic: 
CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND BIOECONOMY
In this work, the performance of electrocoagulation (EC) processes was investigated under currently defined operational conditions for the purification of municipal wastewater. The experimental removal efficiencies for COD, BOD, total P, turbidity and TSS were 55%, 60%, 79%, 89% and 86%,...Read more
