Field experiments were conducted in agricultural fields in which secondary wastewater of the City of Arad (Israel) is reused for irrigation. For sustainable agricultural production and safe groundwater recharge the secondary effluent is further polished by a combined two-stage membrane pilot system. The pilot membrane system consists of two main in row stages: Ultrafiltration (UF) and Reverse O...

Reverse osmosis (RO) is a ground breaking membrane based technology to purify water by separating the dissolved solids from feed stream resulting in permeate and reject stream for a wide arena of applications in domestic , industrial and wide array of applications. Reverse osmosis or other membrane separation processes has an innovative vision which is extremely targeted towards environmental p...

This study aims to determine the extent of groundwater damage in the Upper Litani River Basin (ULRB) after years of water mismanagement and overfertilization in what is considered to be Lebanon's largest fertile area. Physical and chemical samples were collected between 2005 and 2010 and analyzed using "The Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater" (APHA, AWWA) in order to d...

Coastal aquaculture can contribute to eutrophication of receiving waters. New technologies and improved management practices allow the aquaculture industry to be more sustainable and economically viable. Current practices, however, do not provide an additional use for effluent water. Nitrogen, phosphorus and other effluent compounds could be valuable plant nutrients. Inflow and effluent water f...

the aim of this study was the increasing of leachate quality using integrated membrane bioreactor (mbr). the reactor was fed with treated leachate with overall 70-1360 mg/l chemical oxygen demand (cod). the analysis of cod, biochemical oxygen demand (bod5), total suspended solids (tss), and total dissolved solids (tds) were performed in feed and filtrate, whenever the system reached steady stat...

The expected water mixing process between Red/Dead Sea during the proposed conveyance projects is main target of this research. project will ensue transporting Red to recover and maintain certain level Dead Sea, mostly reach -395 m. It found that, two different bodies with EC values or densities (salinities) are relatively divided by stable plane. This plane defined as BARZACH PLANE. In study, ...
