  1. 6. Potential for Enhanced Biological Phosphorus Removal in an activated sludge system for greywater

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Mehrzad Ghassemi; [2022]
    Keywords : Greywater; EBPR; Phosphorus; Biological treatment; Water and environmental engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : As the world's population grows, concerns about water scarcity and rising pollution such as phosphorus and nitrogen have increased significantly. Greywater has been considered by researchers as an ideal alternative to fresh water for decades, and several projects have been implemented to treat and recycle it for various reuse purposes.

  3. 7. Hydrodynamic Modelling of Spread of Perfluoroalkyl Octanoic Sulphonate and Perfluoroalkyl Hexanoic Sulphonate in Lake Ekoln

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Prajwol Prajapati; [2022]
    Keywords : Hydrodynamic modelling; water quality; PFAS; PFOS; PFHxS; MIKE 3 FM; Ekoln; Fyrisån;

    Abstract : Per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are found ubiquitously in the environment across the globe.These substances have high persistence due to the strong carbon and fluorine bond. In the aquaticenvironment, due to high persistence, these substances don’t decay easily and are detected on the surfaceas well as in groundwater sources. READ MORE

  4. 8. Groundwater flooding in a Moldovan limestone mine : An investigation into the limestone aquifer in Chisinau andsustainable solutions to mine dewatering

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Erik Tobin; [2022]
    Keywords : groundwater; hydrogeology; limestone; mine; Moldova; Chisinau; grundvatten; hydrogeologi; kalksten; gruva; Moldavien; Chisinau;

    Abstract : This work aimed to investigate the groundwater situation in and around Mina din Chisinau, an underground limestone mine in Chisinau, Moldova, in order to contribute to a sustainable solution to its flooding problem. Work on-site was done including visits inside the mine, to points of hydrogeological relevance to the mine, well inventories/search, and an attempt at an infiltration test. READ MORE

  5. 9. Analysis of the water quality dynamics of Lake Vomb; Interactions between water quality profile and cyanobacterial bloom in a eutrophic lake in Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Wiebke Coenen; [2022]
    Keywords : Vombsj¨on; Lake profile; Cyanobacteria; Drinking water; Random Forest; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Lake Vomb, located in Sk˚ane, Sweden, provides water for groundwater infiltration, used for the drinking water supply of several municipalities, including Malm¨o. The lake is in a bad ecological condition with intense algae blooms during summer. Cyanobacteria dominate mentioned blooms in 2021 posing the threat of releasing cyanotoxins. READ MORE

  6. 10. Potential policy projects for decreasing fluoride concentrations in the groundwater of Aguascalientes, Mexico : a cost-benefit analysis

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment

    Author : Elice Fällström; [2022]
    Keywords : aguascalientes; cost-benefit analysis; fluoride removal; centre pivot irrigation; sustainable development; environmental policy;

    Abstract : Reductions in groundwater quality due to aquifer depletion is a growing issue globally and will become more prominent with continued climate change and population growth. Dry regions are particularly vulnerable to this issue due to their reliance on groundwater for water supply. READ MORE
