Arid and semi-arid regions face major challenges in the management of scarce freshwater resources under economic development and climate change. Groundwater is commonly the most important water resource in these areas. Accurate prediction of groundwater level is an essential component of suitable water...

In view of the characteristics of the mountain Irrigation District in Guizhou, we combine the characteristics of crop growth and the demand of environmental factors, and the application of the information management system of water resources in Guizhou mountainous areas is carried out. Through monitoring,...

Rainwater catchment irrigation and municipal water supply are the current solutions for parkland water demand in townships of Loess Plateau. Rainwater catchment however, may lead to runoff imbalance or groundwater reduction, while the municipal water supply has priority for residential consumption and...

Aimed to recovery tritium from tritiated water, ZrMnFe micro powder synthesized by solvent combustion and calcium reduction was selected to decompose water vapor. The kinetics of reaction between ZrMnFe micro powder and water vapor was studied by isothermal thermogravimetric method in the temperature...

In this study, removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total phenols (TP) from pistachio processing industry wastewater was investigated using electrocoagulation method. COD and TP removal ef ciencies were compared considering wastewater initial pH by using stainless steel cathodes and aluminum anodes....

This paper adopted the model of the particles to predict oil film dynamic drift process. The prediction was supposed to happen in the channel of Changxing Island, and it carried through under four kinds of circumstances. The circumstances are no wind condition, NNE, WSW and SSW. Through simulating the...

The present paper aims at monitoring the behavior of the high density polyethylene pipe when pressed by an external force in order to shut it off so that the natural gas can no longer pass through the distribution pipelines. The behavior of the polyethylene pipe will be observed by means of fast shutter...

Aggressiveness of KCl in high temperature was studied in this article. Electrochemical experiments in hot molten KCl and corrosion experiments in high temperature were conducted for analysis of possible reaction. Comprehensive analysis indicated that aggressiveness mechanisms of KCl in high temperature...

the results of scaled acoustic laboratory experiments with noise barriers are reported. Short impulsive spherical sound wave with broad frequency spectrum is used as controllable sound source. Using spectral analysis the insertion loss spectral functions were calculated for experiments with different...

The conventional method of gold refining process is widely used and it seems no further effort has been taken to improvise the system. Safety, productivity and reliability issue remains to be crucial barrier to local jewelers to refine their in-house gold scrap. The findings have brought the researcher...
