Heavy metal pollution dispersion simulation in rivers and predicting spatial and temporal variations of pollutants can be used to determine the precise place and to schedule water withdrawal time for drinking, agriculture, aquaculture and ecosystem studies. To study the movement of heavy metal pollution through Karoon flow model, MIKE 11 was employed fpr simulation of the flow model of Karoon R...

The adsorption and removal of congo red from an aqueous solution by iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) coated with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as adsorbent was reported. The novel magnetic separation was quite efficient for the adsorption and desorption of congo red. The effect of temperature, pH of aqueous medium, and interfering ions on the recovery process were also investigated. The...

The interbasin water transfer project is an alternative to balance the nonuniform temporal and spatial distribution of water resources and water demands, especially in arid and semi arid regions. A water transfer project can be executed if it is environmentally and economically justified. In this study, the feasibility of two interbasin water transfer projects from Karoon River in the western p...

introduction: soil has an important role in nutrient cycle and an important function in storage, refinement, and movement of nutrients for the living and non-living parts. soil pollution of heavy metals and elements is one of the common pollution impacts of human activities, especially industry. realization of distribution pattern of these elements and their anthropogenic sources is a major par...

necessary for mental and physical health of citizens and members of urban society- especially metropolitans- is to enjoy favorite, interesting and beautiful spaces. undoubtedly, in metropolitans like isfahan and ahwaz which lack of useful and available urban lands makes the development of such spaces limited, riversides could perform such a role because of different humanistic and natural reaso...

a study with travel cost method (tcm) was performed to evaluate ecotourism demand of lake belonging to karoon 3 dam. for this purpose, 220 clawson questionnaires at highest demand time (february to may 2008) were completed. results of this investigation showed that forecasting outdoor recreational value of karoon 3 dam limits is equal to 2,879,550,000 rials at month, during study. in order to p...
