Though effective and feasible degradation of antibiotics using nanoparticles has been reported by several scientists, chemically synthesized nanoparticles have their own disadvantages. Thus, in this study, nZVI was biosynthesized using leaf extract of Shorea robusta and precursor FeSO4·7H2O for photocatalytically degrading tetracycline (TC) and ciprofloxacin (CIP). The characterization of nZVI was performed using SEM, TEM, AFM, EDX, FTIR, and XRD to test their properties, which revealed iron-rich, well-dispersed, spherical, crystalline nanoparticles. Photocatalytic degradation of TC and CIP under UV illumination revealed 88 and 84% optimum efficiency at antibiotic concentrations 15 and 25 mg L−1, 0.014 and 0.0175 g L−1 doses of nZVI, respectively in the pH range 4–6 in 70 min. The degradation was further verified using mass spectrometry, which confirmed the degradation of antibiotics into the breakdown products. Toxicity assay of the degraded antibiotic solution proved it non-toxic for bacteria and safe for discharge into water bodies. The cost analysis of antibiotic degradation using nZVI proved very economical, costing around 1.5 USD per 1,000 L of wastewater.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88105600","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research aims to assess the water quality of the surface waterbodies in the north-eastern region of Kashmir Valley. Standard analytical procedures were used to analyze the water samples taken from 11 distinct sampling stations for 14 physiochemical parameters. The results were compared with the standard permissible levels which showed that the water quality of rivers and lakes in the north-east Himalayan region has steadily declined. Furthermore, multivariate statistical techniques were used with the goal to identify key variables that influence seasonal and sectional water quality variations. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) analysis revealed that there is substantial spatio-temporal variability in the water quality parameters. According to principal component analysis (PCA) results, four primary components, which together accounted for 79.23% of the total variance, could be used to evaluate all data. Chemical, organic, and conventional pollutants were found to be significant latent factors influencing the water quality of rivers in the study region. The results indicate that PCA and ANOVA may be used as vital tools to identify crucial surface water quality indices and the most contaminated river sections.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81673669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this context, the installation of rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems for use in agricultural holdings can contribute to mitigating this problem. However, the use of these systems by farmers continues to be very low. This paper analyses the factors that influence a farmer's decision to adopt these systems to take advantage of rainwater. Greenhouse agriculture in southeast Spain is the case studied. For this, a binary logistic regression model based on a survey administered to farmers was used. Among the variables found to be significant, the most important variables are the quantity of water in the pond, the pond capacity and environmental awareness. The variables that least affect the adoption decision are age, education level and income. These results have allowed the development of the main lines of action for policy-makers to intervene in order to promote the adoption of these systems. These measures focus on enhancing the training of farmers, providing them with financial support and boosting their environmental awareness. The results of this study lead to improved research on farmers’ behaviour and sustainable management of water resources in agriculture.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90429921","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The surface elemental properties and analytical performance of the Calix/MPA/Au sensor were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Under optimum conditions, the sensor exhibited detection limits of 1.5 and 0.34 mg/L at linear ranges of 2.85–6.65 and 0.13–1.68 mg/L for the Zn(II) and Ni(II) ions, respectively. The developed sensor exhibited a better electrochemical performance in the detection of Zn(II) and Ni(II) ions owing to the favourable host–guest interactions between the hydroxyl groups-functionalized lower rim of dicarboxyl-calix[4]arene and the metal ions. The RSD of the five independent Calix/MPA/Au electrode for Zn(II) and Ni(II) ions was calculated to be 16.3 and 16.1%, respectively. Despite the lower sensitivity of the modified electrode towards Ni(II) ions, this finding proves the high selectivity of the calixarene as a detection probe towards the fitted size of guest ion, hence promising to be assembled and explored as a solid-state based-supramolecular host molecule for tracing metal ions.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76881417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They provide enough water for drinking, domestic, industrial, and irrigation. Also, these rivers have a high hydropower potential. A lack of in-depth studies has made it difficult to understand how these rivers respond hydrologically to climate change (CC) and, thus, impact the environment. In this paper, modelling the Alaknanda River Basin (ARB) using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) has been conducted to understand the hydrological response and assess its water balance components. The result shows that the basin's water yield and Evapotranspiration (ET) vary from 58 to 63% and 34 to 39% of precipitation, respectively. The average annual contribution of snowmelt to the total riverine flow will range from 20 to 24% throughout the simulation period. SFTMP, TLAPS, SMTMP, CN2, SMFMX, and GW_DELAY is found to be most sensitive at the significance level of less than 0.05, showing the contribution of the snowmelt is significant in streamflow, while delay in the groundwater will affect the contribution of surface runoff and groundwater in the streamflow.

The results show that among the response relationships between each hydraulic parameter and Tc, the relationships between flow power, unit flow power, and average flow velocity and Tc is significant. In predicting Tc under different soil conditions, the shear stress produced divergence, which should be further explored. The reliability of using slope and flow rate as a single parameter to predict Tc is questionable. As a kinetic index, flow power can be used to predict Tc. The average flow velocity and unit flow power can predict Tc well and are closely related to the soil used in the experiments. The shear stress of water flow can express the evolution of Tc, which is mainly influenced by the median particle size of sediment particles in predicting Tc. The results of the study provide a new method for establishing a prediction model for soil erosion in the loess hilly gully area.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80287746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigated the relationship between the physical and hydraulic characteristics of a WDS and the corresponding serviced area. Five physical parameters (a) and two hydraulic parameters (b) describing the serviced area were identified for analysis, namely (a) total pipeline length, land area, area shape factor, terrain index, reservoir distance from area centroid and (b) peak flow rate and average static system pressure. Multiple linear regression was performed on the data. A model was compiled linking the total pipeline length of a WDS to the peak flow rate. The model is applicable to predominantly residential service zones larger than 80 hectares with a peak hour flow rate of <450 L/s. The model enables the prediction of the potable water distribution pipe infrastructure required for future development areas in the absence of basic planning information, such as cadastral layouts.
