food security in the world that water shortages are faced is very important, especially in arid regions. effects of climate change on agricultural water requirement have doubled this importance. in this study, the risk of water demand has been assessed for a wide range of products under climate change. aogcm models have been used to simulate climate variables. the climate change scenarios of cl...

background & aims of the study: corrosion and scaling play undesirable effects on transmission and distribution system of drinking water. the aim of this study was to assess the corrosion and scaling potential of drinking water resources in babol city. materials and methods: totally, 54 water samples were collected from 27 wells in spring and autumn. calciu m hardness, ph, total alkalinity, tot...

Water distribution network (WDN) consists of several elements the main ones: pipes and valves. The work developed in this article focuses on a water supply prediction in the short and long term. To this end, reliability data were conjugated in decision making tools on water distribution network rehabilitation in a forecasting context. The pipes are static elements that allow the transport of wa...

background: provision of safe drinking water is one of the basic needs of every society and it will only be possible through preventive and comprehensive management of drinking water security programs such as haccp. hazard analysis critical control point (haccp) is an internationally accepted process control system which includes recognition and determination of risk factor properties of proces...

tion of salt in the soil, salt leaching from the root zone should be conducted. In regions where the rainfall is Development of an impermeable layer at some depth beneath the low, a leaching fraction (the fraction of applied water soil surface and the presence of a high groundwater level are common that appears as drainage water) is added to the irrigation phenomena in the Yizre’el Valley, Isra...

This work presents a model for the inclusion of chemical water stability in optimizing the operation of water distribution systems. When desalinated water is mixed with surface water and/or groundwater, the blend can become chemically unstable. Such a state can cause the phenomena of “red water,” an increase in corrosion rates, and a reduction in disinfection efficiency. In this study, a method...

Maintenance of water distribution systems is becoming a critical infrastructure problem. Good maintenance practices are necessary to extend the life of water distribution system components and an optimal maintenance effort can further prolong their useful life. The decision making problem of determining the best maintenance strategy which would minimize the total discounted maintenance cost ove...

today, many of the subterranean and the threat of environmental pollution have been exposed tehran's why environmental studies and water quality monitoring subterranean as urban planning and management is an important issue. the purpose is of this research, monitoring water quality across the east tehran subterranean of environmental indicators. the research method to collect data primaril...

background trihalomethanes (thms) are major group of chlorinated by products, potentially hazardous and carcinogenicity of these compounds was recognized. the purpose of this study was survey on thms concentration in ahvaz drinking water. material and methods a descriptive cross-sectional study was based on 36-week sampling program during the winter, spring and summer of 2011 in water distribut...

In this paper, we design a water resource allocation mechanism which plays the role of incentives for promotion of the water use efficiency and productivity by taking water distribution for enterprices as an example. It firstly divided the water allocation problem into three cases according to the relationship among amounts of water allocatable and demanded for enterprises. By discussing the th...
