uncertainty is undoubtedly an inevitable part of programming process. a lot of effective factors in the water resources’ performance are not deterministic while their values are surely needed for the design and implantation of water systems. since an optimal design of water distribution systems is in demand of a just evaluation of the costs, efficient operation of such systems calls for a prope...

The effect of magnetic field on the liquid-liquid equilibrium of two ternary systems (water + acetic acid + butyl acetate and water + acetic acid + dimethyl succinate) at 298.15 K under atmospheric pressure was investigated. The results obtained show that the strength of the magnetic field (0.02 T) affects the solubility of acetic acid in the used organic solvents. Distribution coefficients and...

abstract the main purpose of this study was to determine farmers’ satisfaction towards pressurized irrigation systems in kermanshah province. this study used a mixed method design with descriptive correlation emphasis. a researcher made questionnaire was used to collect data. a random sample of 274 farmers who have been equipped with pressurized irrigation systems during the last three years pa...

one of the consequences of poor management and operation of irrigation systems, poor water delivery and distribution channels and divisions and consequently improper distribution of water level downstream. the study of simulation and performance evaluation software using hydrodynamic sobek varamin irrigation is done. in order to evaluate the network performance and compare the results of simula...

High concentration of nitrate is a prevalent problem in water resources. Untreated wastewater due to municipal, industrial and agricultural activities is the main potential source of nitrate contamination of groundwater and surface water. The maximum permissible level of nitrate concentration has been established to be 45 mg/L by WHO and US–EPA. Health problems, such as Methemoglobinemia in bab...

Controlling the microbiological quality of water is important for its uses. Microbiological requirements of drinking water ensure the absence of coliforms, but may indicate the potential presence of other potentially pathogenic microorganisms and viruses of fecal origin. A total of 36 water samples, representing the drinking water of the whole city of Aradan, Semnan, Iran, were randomly collect...
