How salts affect water structure is an important topic in many research fields. Salt-water clusters can be used as model systems to extract interaction information that is difficult to obtain directly from bulk solutions. In the present study, integrated tempering sampling molecular dynamics (MD) are combined with quantum mechanics (QM) calculations to overcome the sampling problem in cluster s...

Abnormal fluoride levels in drinking water have been associated with adverse health effects. To determine the fluoride content of well waters in Enugu, southeastern Nigeria, water samples from 50 artisan wells chosen by multistage sampling procedure from the 5 zones of Enugu municipality were analyzed in duplicates for their fluoride content. The zonal mean values were 0.60, 0.70, 0.62, 0.62, a...

Myanmar is one of the least developed countries in the world, and very little information is available regarding the nation's water quality. This report gives an overview of the current situation in the country, presenting the results of various water-quality assessments in urban areas of Myanmar. River, dam, lake, and well water sources were examined and found to be of generally good quality. ...

the aim of this study is to investigate the nitrate adsorption on granular ferric hydroxide (gfh). the effect of factors such as initial concentration of nitrate, ph, contact time, and adsorbent mass were determined. the study was done in laboratory–scale in which synthetic nitrate solutions in a batch reactor were placed in contact with the adsorbent to model adsorption kinetics. it was found ...

introduction: water scarcity is one of the major problems for crop production. using drip irrigation as an effective method in the efficient use of water is expanding in arid and semi-arid regions. one of the problems in under pressure irrigation during use of saline, unconventional and waste is emitters clogging. there are several ways to prevent particle deposits in pipes and clogging of emit...

there are 3700 wells in tehran city, of which 850 are deep wells. to determine tehran ground water quality, as a pretest we selected 102 wells by simple random sampling; water analyses were made according to the latest edition (1985) of the standard methods. comparisons of the obtained results with who standards show that only 0.98% of the samples go beyond the maximum desirable concentration o...
