The purification of 18O-water

Safety Evaluation of Mangifera Indica Bark for Raw Water Purification

Background: Synthetic coagulants commonly used for water treatment are associated with undesirable properties, such as inefficacy and toxicity in addition to being expensive. Natural coagulants are considered safe and economical alternatives for developing countries where the plants are abundantly available. Methods: The phytochemical composition and safety of water samples treated with Mang...

Nanotechnology for Water Purification

Establishing a grassland signature in veins: 18O in the leaf water of C3 and C4 grasses.

We show that 18O evaporative enrichment of bulk leaf water in grass species can be significantly more enriched than predicted by the Craig-Gordon model, with C4 grasses considerably more enriched than C3 grasses. Our results suggest that the unanticipated 18O leaf water enrichment of grasses is attributable to the progressive evaporative enrichment along parallel veins (a function of both leaf ...

Water Purification in Thailand

Water is a necessary part of life, but without proper filtration, it could cause problems such as illness or death. While citizens of developed countries may take the water that flows from their taps for granted, many parts of the world do not have access to clean water. A small village in Thailand called Nong Bua is one such community that is hindered by the quality of their water supply. Nong...
