Saltwater intrusion risk assessment is a foundational step for preventing and controlling salinization in coastal regions. The Vietnamese Mekong Delta (VMD) highly affected by drought threats, especially severe under the impacts of global climate change rapid development an upstream hydropower dam system. This study aimed to apply modified DRASTIC model, which combines generic model with hydrol...

Differently modified TiO2 nanotubes were used to achieve a drastic change in the selectivity of a photocatalytic reaction. For the photocatalytic oxidation of toluene, depending on the electronic properties of TiO2 (anatase, rutile, Ru-doped), a strong change in the main reaction product (namely benzoic acid versus benzaldehyde) can be achieved, and certain undesired reaction pathways can be co...

Accurate assessment of groundwater vulnerability objectively reflects an area’s potential for pollution and provides a reference basis control prevention. The main objective this study was to modify the original DRASTIC model improve consistency results with regard actual conditions area. To optimize objectivity, two additional factors that are influenced by human activities (land use degree ex...
