Water Transfer, A Solution for Water Shortage?

Bioremediation of saline effluents using Quinoa as a proposed solution to the crisis of shortage of drinking water resources

Background & Aim: The demand for freshwater resources has led scientists to use saline water and effluents. One of the cost-effective methods is the use of salinity-resistant plants to bioremediate saline effluents. Quinoa is a medicinal plant with high nutritional value that can control salinity stress in various ways. The present study was conducted with the aim of examining bioremediation of...

A Clear Solution for Dirty Water

Serum levels of alpha1-antitrypsin (alAT) were measured by radial immunodiffusion and phenotypes were determined by electrofocusing in acrylamide gel in 39 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) positive for serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), 41 patients with HCC negative for serum HBsAg, and 160 ageand sex-matched hospital controls. There was no difference between the control ser...

Environmental education as a solution tool for the prevention of water pollution

Water is the origin of life. 3/4 of the Earth's surface is covered by water and all living things must have water to survive. Life without water can not be considered. Despite this, of all living things only humans exploit, waste and pollute this vital natural resource. Raising awareness of the people on this issue is of great importance. At this point, environmental education is a key concept....

Vulnerability assessment of climate-induced water shortage in Phoenix.

Global warming has profound consequences for the climate of the American Southwest and its overallocated water supplies. This paper uses simulation modeling and the principles of decision making under uncertainty to translate climate information into tools for vulnerability assessment and urban climate adaptation. A dynamic simulation model, WaterSim, is used to explore future water-shortage co...
