Xerogel Water Purification: A Revolutionary Approach to Clean Water Access Access to clean water is a fundamental human right, yet millions of people around the world still lack access to safe drinking water. According to the World Health Organization, 2.2 billion people worldwide do not have access to safely managed drinking water services, and around […]
Introduction Water scarcity is becoming a major global problem as the world’s population continues to grow and climate change affects water availability. As a result, there is an increasing need for new and innovative technologies to treat water and make it safe for consumption. Thermally responsive hydrogels are one such technology that shows great promise […]
Quantum dot water sensors are a cutting-edge technology that holds promise for revolutionizing the way we monitor water quality. These sensors are designed to detect and measure various parameters in water, including contaminants, pH levels, and temperature, with high sensitivity and precision. In this article, we will explore the science behind quantum dot water sensors, […]
The demand for clean and safe drinking water is increasing as population growth and industrialization continue to put a strain on our natural water sources. Water pollution is a major global issue, with contaminants such as heavy metals, pesticides, and bacteria posing a serious threat to the health of humans and the environment. As a […]
The world is facing a water crisis. With increasing populations, industrialization, and climate change, fresh water sources are becoming scarce. Desalination – the process of removing salt and impurities from seawater – has become an attractive solution to this crisis. However, traditional desalination methods are energy-intensive, expensive, and not environmentally friendly. Enter jellyfish-inspired desalination. Scientists […]
Water scarcity is a growing concern around the world, with nearly 1 billion people lacking access to clean and safe drinking water. As the global population continues to increase, the demand for fresh water is only expected to rise. This has led to the development of innovative water purification technologies, such as hydrogel-based water purification […]
Atmospheric water generation (AWG) is a cutting-edge technology that is gaining attention as a sustainable solution to the global water crisis. With the Earth’s population growing at an unprecedented rate and freshwater sources becoming increasingly scarce due to pollution and over-extraction, finding innovative ways to generate clean and safe drinking water is essential for the […]
Screw presses play a crucial role in wastewater management, serving as an effective tool for the dewatering of sludges and slurries. These mechanical devices leverage a screw mechanism to apply pressure and separate solids from liquids. Their operation is relatively straightforward but highly dependent on specific variables such as screw speed, the design of the […]
Filtration in wastewater treatment is a critical process for removing impurities from water before it is released back into the environment or reused. The process involves passing water through substances that act as filters to separate particles and contaminants from the water. This is essential for protecting water quality, ecosystem health, and human well-being. As […]
Global engineering and consulting firm Black & Veatch (B&V) announced this week that it has acquired the water business of MJ Gleeson Group, an Australian construction and civil engineering company. This strategic acquisition significantly expands B&V’s water infrastructure capabilities and strengthens its presence across the Asia-Pacific region. MJ Gleeson’s water infrastructure division specializes in designing […]
