Nowadays, the increase of human population every year results in increasing of water usage and demand. Saen Saep canal is important canal in Bangkok. The main objective of this study is using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model to estimate the Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) on data from 11 sampling sites. The data is obtained from the Department of Drainage and Sewerage, Bangkok Metropolitan Ad...

Effects of specific ions on the local translational diffusion of water near large hydrophilic lipid vesicle surfaces were measured by Overhauser dynamic nuclear polarization (ODNP). ODNP relies on an unpaired electron spin-containing probe located at molecular or surface sites to report on the dynamics of water protons within ~10 Å from the spin probe, which give rise to spectral densities for ...

Using sum-frequency vibrational spectroscopy, we found that water structure at nanoporous silica/water interfaces depended on the nanoporous film structure. For a periodic, self-assembled nanoporous film with monosized 2 nm pores occupying 20% of the top surface area, the surface vibrational spectrum was dominated by water in contact with silica, bare or covered by silane, at the top surface. I...

In many urban areas of the developing world, piped water is supplied only intermittently, as valves direct water to different parts of the water distribution system at different times. The flow is transient, and may transition between free-surface and pressurized, resulting in complex dynamical features with important consequences for water suppliers and users. Here, we develop a computational ...

background: measurement of back ground concentration of uranium in drinking water is very important for many reasons, specially, for human health. the uranium concentration in drinking water in many counties is a matter of concern for clinical and radioactive poisoning. materials and methods: the uranium concentration in drinking water is determined using laser flourimatric uranium analyzer. fo...

some children of borazjan area have minute white flecks, yellow or brown spot areas scattered irregularly over the tooth surface, the causative factor was attributed to excess of fluoride in water. to verify this matter short chemical examination of water samples from endemic area was carried out. the results of water analysis by colorimetric method, using zirconium a1izarin reagent after disti...
