Abstract:

This study analyzed the relevance of governance structure for efficient revenue collection by Brazilian water utilities (WUs). Data were collected from the National Information System on Sanitation (SNIS) for 127 Brazilian WUs, covering a balanced longitudinal panel from 2018 to 2022. The governance structures evaluated included ownership (public or private) and corporatization (publicly traded or not). We searched scientific databases and did not find any studies on the efficiency of specific WUs in collecting customer bills for services rendered and its relationship with this type of governa

The document presents a study on the optimal design of multilayer fog collectors to improve water collection efficiency.  The research addresses the need for a common framework to predict, measure, and compare the efficiency of new fog collector prototypes.  A general theory and an experimental protocol are proposed to quantify water collection efficiency.  The results show that multilayer collectors are more efficient than single-layer ones, with maximum efficiency achieved using collectors with 4 to 5 layers and an operational solidity of 0.3.

Fog collection presents a promising solution to water scarcity in arid regions. Typically, hydrophilic surfaces are used for this purpose.

Despite the superhydrophobic nature of the carbon papers causing condensed fog particles to aggregate into spherical droplets, this aggregation has little effect on collection performance.

Transpiration efficiency (TE), the biomass produced per unit of water transpired, is a key trait for crop performance under limited water. As water becomes scarce, increasing TE would contribute to increase crop drought tolerance.

We analyzed TE on 537 pearl millet genotypes, including inbred lines, test-cross hybrids, and hybrids bred for different agroecological zones.

Abstract:

Passive interception of fog from the wind is an effective solution for accessing water in regions where fog is frequent and other sources scarce. A Namib Desert beetle is often cited as bioinspiration for further advancement, in a narrative which focuses on patterned wettability of its bumpy elytra as a means of transporting accumulated water from its back to its mouth. However, surface transport in fog collection is secondary to the role of the fluid dynamics of droplet deposition, in which inertial droplets migrate across diverging streamlines approaching an obstruction. 3D geometry of biolo

Abstract:

The study is devoted to the analysis and improvement of the efficiency of operation of oil treatment facilities. In modern conditions, production problems associated with the destruction of water-oil emulsions and deposits of inorganic salts in oil collection and treatment systems are becoming key. Inefficient phase separation, deposits of various salts on water pipes and process equipment lead to a decrease in production, a decrease in the productivity of installations, acceleration of corrosion processes and an increase in the total costs of processing raw materials. The article considers th

Abstract:

As one of the effective control devices of air pollutants, the wet electrostatic precipitator (ESP) is an effective technique to eliminate acid mist and fine particles that are re-entrained in a collection electrode. However, its collection efficiency can deteriorate, as its operation is subject to water-induced corrosion of the collection electrode. To overcome this drawback, we modified the wet ESP system with the installation of a PVC dust precipitator wherein water is supplied as a replacement of the collection electrode. With this modification, we were able to construct a compact wet ESP

Abstract:

Industrial organic sludge is the concern of society and government levels since this kind of sludge will lead to the pollution of groundwater, surface water, air and the invasion of the food chain, increasing the disease and causing the bad effects on health without collecting and treating thoroughly. For high organic pollutants in sludge, appropriate treatment technology to recover biogas, supply energy for demand of production and living, is one of the current and priority solutions.

Abstract:

Water scarcity is a critical issue exacerbated by climate change, urbanization, and population growth, particularly in regions with insufficient water infrastructure. Rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems offer a sustainable solution to mitigate water shortages by collecting and storing rainwater for non-potable uses. This study focuses on the design, efficiency, and reliability of RWH systems in residential environments, with an emphasis on optimizing the sizing of storage volumes and collection areas. Using a behavioural simulation model, we generate nomograms that facilitate the design of RWH

Abstract:

Cloud and fog droplets are essential in atmospheric chemistry since they affect the distribution and chemical transformation of pollutants. Collecting sufficient volumes using cloud/fog samplers is the premise of cloud fog chemical studies. Accurate identification of fog events and high collection efficiency are the basic principles of sampler design. Therefore, an automatic cloud/fog collector (ACFC) has been designed, fabricated, and extensively tested for collecting samples of cloud/fog water.

Abstract:

Fog harvesting is recognized as an important alternate source of fresh water. Industrial fog can supplement water for industrial requirement. Collection of fog (drift droplets) from cooling tower plumes is a viable mode of industrial fog harvesting. The present study delves deeper into the findings of our earlier pilot investigation, on cooling tower fog harvesting and unravels how the collection efficiency depends on interaction of the mesh with the oncoming flow and the deposited fog droplets. Herein, we quantify the fog collection and explain the rationale of the individual contributions of
