The results indicated EC contamination (100–300 MPN/100 mL) in all tests performed. As compared to the literature, lower exposure times (2.5–4.0 h) and solar radiations (250–410 W/m²) were sufficient for EC elimination. Then, assuming the complete-mix approach and first-order kinetics, it was possible to adjust EC decay rate constants (k) considering three different models: constant k-value, k as a function of water temperature and a new formulation for k as a function of both solar radiation and water temperature. All models performed well with normalized root mean squared logarithmic error (NRMSLE) lower than 20%, but the best fitting was obtained with the new approach. A new relationship between solar radiation and water temperature was also obtained, which allowed model simulations of EC decay for 34 municipalities in the Brazilian northeast, resulting in a color map for the region depicting the exposure periods of 1.8–5.6 h for reaching a 3-log reduction.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74285735","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}

Therefore, the current investigation focused on enhancing both the evaporation rate in the absorber basin and the condensation rate over the top glass simultaneously. In this regard, the evaporation rate is enhanced by using a hollow-finned absorber basin with energy storage and novel pond fibres in the absorber basin. Likewise, the sisal fibre with a water dripping arrangement is utilized for enhancing the condensation over the top glass. The investigations on the CSS and the modified solar still (MSS) with hollow fins and energy storage, pond fibres, and sisal fibres are conducted to analyze the effect of energy storage and natural fibres on the distillate production. It is observed that the water temperatures of the MSS are increased by 12% and the glass temperatures of the MSS are reduced by 30% relative to the CSS. The outcomes reported that the productivity of the MSS is enhanced by 126%. Furthermore, the cost per litre (CPL) and the payback period (PP) of the MSS are 38.5 and 49.3% lesser than the CPL and the PP of the CSS, respectively.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73477835","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}

Most research mainly focuses on optimal design problems. However, the system operation has not been investigated adequately regarding resilience. Therefore, we proposed an integral format of the demand-weighted modified resilience index (IMRI), which can capture the overall resilient performance throughout the operational period. This indicator was incorporated into the multi-objective operation optimization model as one of the objectives. Two benchmark networks were considered as case studies. The resulting Pareto fronts show a clear competing relationship between cost and resilience. Operating conditions in pumps, reservoirs and tanks at each regulation step were characterized by methods of resilience decomposition, which proved valuable intuitively for resilience regulation. A framework for explicit resilience assessment was also developed to examine directly the overall performance in statistics about those optimal solutions obtained. Explicit resilience results show that the IMRI can effectively quantify the resilience of system operation in the temporal dimension. Furthermore, scheduling more pumps, higher trigger-on levels of tanks and a wider range of trigger-level control could yield a more resilient solution to the operation of WDSs.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88146468","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}

Drinking water is a common problem in Ejere Town. The primary goal of this study was to investigate the accessibility of the town's drinking water distribution system. To achieve this research goal, the hydraulic performance of the town's water distribution system and the level of customers’ satisfaction were assessed. A total of 374 sampled households were randomly chosen from a total of 13,380 to measure the degree of customer satisfaction with the town's water supply services, and the hydraulic performance of the town's water distribution system was analyzed using the WaterGEMS software. Of the 374 customers surveyed for the study, 85 (22.7%) were satisfied and 289 (77.3%) were dissatisfied, implying that the satisfaction levels were below average. The WaterGEMS hydraulic model was calibrated (R2 = 0.94) using measured data from nine randomly chosen nodes. According to the model results, a great amount of the velocity and pressure in the water distribution system was below the minimum recommended limits. These minimum pressures and velocity levels indicate that there is not enough water pressure in the distribution network to reach all parts of Ejere Town. Finally, it was concluded that there was insufficient access to drinking water in the town.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79304156","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}

To find out the mechanism of water hammer in the viscoelastic pipe of both elastic and viscous properties, an experiment was set up to study the direct water hammer generated by rapid closure of the downstream valve in the polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) pipe, with six flow velocities in nearly 70 tests. The experimental results showed that the maximum water hammer pressure generated in the viscoelastic pipe in all flow velocities was (20% at most) greater than the traditional value of Joukowsky's formula. A faster closing time of the valve caused a higher water hammer pressure. The difference in water hammer pressure generated between the fastest and the slowest closing time of the valve was 14–17% at each flow velocity. Based on the relationship between the stress and strain of the pipe wall in the viscoelastic pipe, the reason that the water hammer characteristic in the viscoelastic pipeline was different from the traditional value was explained. The study provides a reference for the mechanism of transient flow in viscoelastic pipelines.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86534881","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 exact solution to the Riemann problem calculates the mass and momentum fluxes while considering the Brunone unsteady friction factor. One simple boundary treatment with double virtual cells is proposed to ensure the whole computation domain with second-order accuracy. Results of various transient free-surface flows achieved by the proposed models are compared with exact solution, experimental data, the four-point implicit Preissmann scheme solution, as well as predictions by the classic Method of Characteristics (MOC). Results show that the proposed second-order GTS UFMs are accurate, efficient, and stable even for Courant numbers less than one and sparse grid. The four-point implicit Preissmann scheme may produce severe numerical attenuation in the case of large time steps and unsuitable weighting factors, while the MOC scheme may produce severe numerical attenuation in the case of a low Courant number and could not maintain mass conservation. The numerical simulations considering the unsteady friction factor are closer to the measured water depth variations. The effect of unsteady friction becomes more important as the initial water depth difference increases significantly.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86550531","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}

With the increasing demand for drinking water quality, ARGs have been regarded as a new pollutant that may cause serious public health problems.

However, the effects of traditional disinfection methods on ARGs have their own disadvantages. Tea polyphenols have attracted more and more researchers’ attention as a green, efficient and non-disinfection by-products disinfectant. The effect of the ozone–tea polyphenols disinfection process on ARGs in filtered effluent of waterworks was analyzed by using the metagenomic sequencing. The result shows that the ozone–tea polyphenols disinfection process is suitable for specific raw water containing more tetracycline, sulfonamide, β-lactam, and aminoglycoside resistance genes, and the removal rate of total resistance genes in water is higher than the traditional disinfection process. The effect of the ozone–tea polyphenols disinfection process on ARGs is to reduce the transfer of ARGs by destroying ARGs molecules and inhibiting the proliferation of ARGs host cells. As an assistant disinfectant, tea polyphenols have significance for the ability to remove ARGs during traditional disinfection.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76373011","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 study, the responses of phytoplankton functional groups (PFGs) to physicochemical variables and hydraulic regimes were investigated and used as ecological indicators in the Tri An Reservoir (TAR), a eutrophic tropical floodplain reservoir located in southern Vietnam. Altogether, 148 phytoplankton taxa were identified and assigned to 16 PFGs; the four predominant PFG groups were M (Microcystis spp.), MP (filamentous cyanobacteria: Oscillatoria spp., and some other diatoms: Gomphonema angustatum, Navicula sp.), J (green algae: Coelastrum spp., Cosmarium spp., Pediastrum spp., Scenedesmus spp., Staurastrum spp., Tetradesmus spp., Tetraëdron spp., and Xanthidium spp.), and P (Closterium spp., Aulacoseira granulata, Fragilaria spp., Pinnularia spp., and Desmidium baileyi). The average PFG biovolume ranged from 79.6 ± 20.2 to 230.1 ± 69.1 mg/L with M being the dominant group. The trophic state index (TSI) indicated that the water condition was light-eutrophic to hyper-eutrophic. It was found that the large water level fluctuation resulted in seasonal nutrient dynamics, with higher nutrient concentrations and higher turbidity during the low water level period and vice versa. The redundancy analysis (RDA) indicated that the nutrient concentrations, water level fluctuation, and mixing regimes were critical factors in the PFG selection in the TAR. Therefore, we assumed that water level fluctuation management coupled with biological competition have the potential to control toxic cyanobacteria in the TAR. In conclusion, the PFGs are suitable for examining the effects of environmental conditions on phytoplankton dynamics in tropical floodplain reservoirs, but their sensitivity to long-term changes in water quality and eutrophication requires further investigation.","PeriodicalId":17666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology-Aqua","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83337243","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}
