groundwater is the most widely distributed resource of the earth and groundwater quality evolves rapidly as it passes through the subsurface pathways within the unsaturated zone. increasing urbanization and anthropogenic activities have added to the problem of deficient amount of good quality groundwater. the study area is an industrial hub for textile sector. textile production, particularly d...

The purpose of the paper is to assess the groundwater quality near the landfill sites using landfill water pollution index (LWPI). In order to investigate the scale of groundwater contamination, three landfills (E, H and S) in different stages of their operation were taken into analysis. Samples of groundwater in the vicinity of studied landfills were collected four times each year in the perio...

Introduction: Water quality is essential for industries because they play an important role in countries’ economic development. Groundwater is one of the most widely used resources, and when the ionic constituents were increasing higher than the allowable limit, it increases the cost of maintenance and production in the industries. Materials and Methods: In order to evaluate groundwater corros...

researchers of csiro land and water in griffith in australia have found a way to repeatedly reuse drainage water to grow crops. in the process the system will concentrate the salt in the water to a manageable level which can then be used or stored in an environmentally friendly manner. the process, known as sequential biological concentration, is based on a novel system for land, based treatmen...

     The main portion of water demands of arid regions like Kashan Plain, Iran supply by groundwater wells. This research was conducted to assess the groundwater quality as well as modelling and mapping groundwater quality in the study area using geosatistics and deterministic techniques. Five water quality parameters, including Electrical Conductivity, Sodium Adsorption Ratio, Total Hardness, ...

Fifty sampling stations have been identified and water samples were collected from June to May 2008, to know the groundwater quality of Greater Visakhapatnam city using Water Quality Index. The samples were analyzed for the physico-chemical parameters like Temperature, pH, Conductivity, Total dissolved solids, Dissolved Oxygen, Hardness, Calcium, Magnesium, Alkalinity, Chloride and Nitrate. The...
