In the context of water resource management and pollution control, the characterization of water quality impairments and identification of dominant pollutants are of critical importance. In this study, water quality impairment was assessed on the basis of 7 hydrochemical variables that were monitored bimonthly at 17 sites in 2010 along the rural-suburban-urban portion of the Wen-Rui Tang River ...

introduction: a major concern of human being is accumulation and toxicity of heavy metals in their body. copper is a heavy metal ion that in concentration of 2 mg/l can cause numerous complications. different treatment methods have been proposed for removing metals from contaminated water by researchers. among these methods, sorption seems a better method with high removal efficiency. in this s...

INTRODUCTION: Textile industry (and especially its part focused on the dyeing process) belongs among important sources of contamination responsible for the continuous pollution of the environment. The production of textile industry, as well as the volume of waste water containing processed textile dyes, steadily increases. The release of dyes into the environment constitutes only a small propor...

Water quality assessment at the watershed scale requires not only an investigation of water pollution and the recognition of main pollution factors, but also the identification of polluted risky regions resulted in polluted surrounding river sections. To realize this objective, we collected water samplings from 67 sampling sites in the Honghe River watershed of China with Grid GIS method to ana...

In recent years, water quality degradation associated with rapid socio-economic development in the Taihu Lake Basin, China, has attracted increasing attention from both the public and the Chinese government. The primary sources of pollution in Taihu Lake are its inflow rivers and their tributaries. Effective water environmental management strategies need to be implemented in these rivers to imp...

In the beginning of the 21st century, the deterioration of water quality in Taihu Lake, China, has caused widespread concern. The primary source of pollution in Taihu Lake is river inflows. Effective pollution load reduction scenarios need to be implemented in these rivers in order to improve the water quality of Taihu Lake. It is important to select appropriate pollution load reduction scenari...

This research is aimed at analizing the effect of environmental management policy implementation on water pollution control to improve the environmental quality. The analytical method used is this study is a literature review that uses effectual causal analysis approach based on literature review, with the object of research conducted in Garut District, Indonesia. The result of discussion shows...

The acceleration of urbanization and rapid development of economy led to making surface water pollution problem becoming more critical. Water treatment technologies can be generally classified as insitu or ex-situ. In this paper, a comprehensive review describing the latest surface water remediation developments and technologies that can be suitable for in-situ applications. The review covers t...
