Integrated management of water reuse technologies and coordinated operations with other system components is fundamental to fully exploiting potential. Yet, these are primarily designed considering their individual efficiency more than possible synergies traditional practices. In this paper, we introduce a general-purpose framework that couples physical surrogate modelling optimal control metho...

the objective of this investigation was the development of chitosan/xanthan polyelectrolyte complex based mucoadhesive nasal insert of promethazine hydrochloride a drug used in the treatment of motion sickness. a 32 factorial design was applied for preparing chitosan/xanthan polyelectrolyte complex and to study the effect of independent variables i.e. concentration of xanthan [x1] and concentra...

We applied a mechanistically based model to predict the effects of complex mixtures as occurring in the field on the survival of Daphnia magna. We validated the model by comparing predicted survival with observed survival of in situ exposed laboratory cultured daphnids to polluted surface waters, in which over 90 chemical contaminants were measured. Using the chemical composition of the surface...
