New Logic International installed its Vibratory Shear Enhanced Processing (VSEP) Phase I system in July, 1997, and the Phase II system in August 1998 at a major international electronic disk manufacturing facility at Hokkaido Island located in Northern Japan. The VSEP is used for treatment of river water for ultrapure water production at this facility. The VSEP system uses an ultrafiltration membrane module and is able to treat river water in order to remove or reduce color, turbidity, permanganate consumption, and total iron below the required limits. The economics of installing this system are very attractive. The application of VSEP membrane technology to treat river water for ultrapure water production at electronic disk fabrication facilities is found to be an attractive economic alternative to conventional water treatment technology.
A sensitive and simple cloud point extraction method was developed for simultaneous separation and preconcentration of cadmium and copper prior to their determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. 4-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazide was used as complexing agent and the cadmium and copper complexes were extracted from the aqueous phase by Triton X-114 surfactant. The effects of parameters such as sample pH, ligand amount, concentration of surfactant, incubation temperature and time were optimized. For 20 mL of...
Nutrient dynamics in streambanks may impact nutrient movement to water, and may be influenced by cattle activity, river water level fluctuations, and time. Our objective was to determine the influence of these factors on nutrient (NO3-N, P, S, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Ca, Mg) dynamics in streambanks along the Lower Little Bow River in southern Alberta using Plant Root Simulator or PRS® probes. Three experiments were conducted from 2012 to 2015. In the first experiment, few significant (P ≤ 0.05) effects were found among...
This paper seeks to complement ongoing discussions around water allocation by offering an analytic framework for examining the evolution of paradigms for water allocation in river basins. It traces this evolution from the hydraulic paradigm through to Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) and the current water security paradigm. Using a society-science-practice interaction perspective, the paper draws attention to the governance processes of water allocation that underlie these paradigms using examples...
Transboundary water sharing policy between Pakistan and Afghanistan along with emerging issues over the Transboundary Kabul River have been discussed incorporating long-term hydrological trend analysis, water quality issues and temporal changes in land cover/land use. The annual (1977–2015) mean river flow of 26.32 billion (109) cubic metres (BCM) with a range of 13.77 to 42.2 BCM and standard deviation of 6.026 BCM revealed no significant trend in annual inflow data of the Kabul River. Afghanistan planned...
On the 6 September 2007, an oil spill from a fuel dump leaks into the beautiful Boyne River, County Louth, Ireland. Local wild fowl and their nesting areas are endangered, as is the local water supply. The coastguards deploy conventional booms to contain the spill but decide against the use of conventional chemical detergents because of the obvious damage to flora and fauna.
