Measuring environmental quality: an index of pollution
This paper develops an index of pollution based on the epidemiological dose-response function associated with each pollutant, and the welfare losses due to exposure to pollution. The probability of damage is translated into welfare losses, which provides the common metric required for aggregation. Isopollution surfaces may then be used to compare environmental quality over time and space. An Ai...
متن کاملEvaluation of water quality and pollution using multichannel sensors
We studied and discussed the characteristics and the application of a multichannel electrode type sensor. It was based on eight membranes using various lipids as an effective and a simple potentiometric sensor for detecting water quality. The response of the sensor was calibrated using a standard solution, adjusted as an artificial river water. Especially, we researched the response patterns of...
متن کاملWater Quality and Standards
Water is an essential material for all organisms on earth to sustain life, and a satisfactory water supply must be made available to consumers. It is required that drinking water not be contaminated by microbes or chemical substances harmful to human health. Pathogenic bacteria, viruses and protozoa in drinking water cause waterborne infectious diseases. The pollution source, pathogenicity, and...
متن کاملClassification of Water Quality Standards
Water is used for various purposes: for daily life, agriculture, industry and fisheries. Water in chemically pure form rarely occurs in nature; it is commonly found to host a wide variety of constituents derived from both the natural and human environments. It is therefore necessary to establish water quality standards to assess and to manage water from the viewpoint of water use as well as the...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Water Quality Pollution Indices for Groundwater Resources of Ghahavand Plain, Hamadan Province, Western Iran
Background: Due to the increasing pollution of water resources, this study was carried out for evaluation of water quality pollution indices for monitoring of heavy metals (As, Zn, Pb and Cu) contamination in Ghahavand Plain, Hamadan Province, Western Iran during spring and summer 2012. Methods: Totally, 20 ground water wells were chosen randomly. The samples were filtered (0.45 μm) and m...
