The development of a real-time monitoring tool for the estimation of water quality is essential for efficient management of river pollution in urban areas. The Gap River in Korea is a typical urban river, which is affected by the effluent of a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) and various anthropogenic activities. In this study, fluorescence excitation-emission matrices (EEM) with parallel fact...

This study was designed to investigate the microorganisms associated with palm oil mill effluent (POME) in Johor Bahru state, Malaysia. Biodegradation of palm oil mill effluents (POME) was conducted to measure the discarded POME based on physicochemical quality. The bacteria that were isolated are Micrococcus species, Bacillus species, Pseudomonas species, and Staphylococcus aureus, while the f...

An increase in the chemical oxygen demand (COD) has been noticed in most Korean reservoirs. Therefore, this research systematically investigated the causes of organic accumulation. Samples of soil affecting the quality of water of reservoirs were collected at various sources and analyzed for their organic characteristics. The COD to biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) ratio was used as the key para...

Algae-derived dissolved organic matter has been hypothesized to induce mortality of reef building corals. One proposed killing mechanism is a zone of hypoxia created by rapidly growing microbes. To investigate this hypothesis, biological oxygen demand (BOD) optodes were used to quantify the change in oxygen concentrations of microbial communities following exposure to exudates generated by turf...

In Brazil, a large part of the population still does not have collection and treatment their sewage, with that, they are forced to dispose them incorrectly, harming quality life. This article aims present an unconventional way recovering water watershed evaluate its improvement through case study analyzing levels Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD). The sub-basin Olarias stream, contributor Alto Pi...

Hyporheic exchange carries reactive solutes, which may include biological oxygen demand (BOD), dissolved oxygen (DO) and reactive dissolved inorganic nitrogen (Nr), into the sediment, where biochemical reactions consume DO. Here, we study the impact of streambed morphology, stream-reactive solute loads and their diel oscillations on the DO benthic uptake rate (BUR) due to hyporheic processes. O...

We present a seasonal and baseline survey of selected physicochemical parameters in epipelagic samples from Qua Iboe (QIB) and Cross River (CRV) estuaries in Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The parameters analysed were temperature, pH, salinity, turbidity, total suspended solids (TSS), dissolved oxygen (DO), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total organic carbon (TOC), total nitrogen, available p...

The release of municipal wastewater from various sources can cause contamination of water bodies and algal blooms. In this study isolated strain of chlorella vulgaris was used for treatment of municipal wastewater and biodiesel production. Initially Chlorella culture was prepared in artificial media then it was inoculated in transparent and covered, glass ponds containing wastewater to investig...

Artificial neural networks, ANNs were developed to model the biological oxygen demand (BOD), biochemical oxygen demand (COD), and total suspended solids (TSS) treatment in 3 horizontal subsurface flow (HSSF) constructed wetlands (CWs) located in Samaha village, Nile Delta, Egypt. Gravel, hollow plastic bits and shredded tires pieces were used as different wetland treatment media. Three hundred ...

Abstract This study aims to evaluate the quality of riparian habitats based on index (QBR), tree vegetation (community structure and Naturalness index), anthropogenic activity (Hemeroby Index) their relationship water in some waterfall spring ecosystems Bawean Island. Ex Post Facto was conducted six (Candi, Putri, Suwari, Talomon, Laccar Kuduk Kuduk) two (Kuduk Laccar). Analysis at each locatio...
