Domestic Drinking Water Electrical Purifier
Abstract: Domestic drinking water purification systems are designed to treat hard water, remove deposits such as scale, sand, lime, rust, etc., and to deactivate harmful viruses and bacteria such as E. coli. The advantages of these purification systems are that they are not only a source of clean drinking water, but also that clean drinking water protects heating systems, household appliances, plumbing, washing/laundry etc. from deposits such as scale, sand, lime, …

Photovoltaic Cell Powered Water Purifier for Flood Affected and Polluted Areas
Abstract: AbstractThe lack of clean drinking water was a serious issue in many areas of Kerala during the flood. According to the Kerala migration survey (KMS), 90% of water supply in Malappuram was affected as around 31 schemes stopped functioning due to power failure and flood and around 60% water supply was affected in Palakkad and Kozhikode. People were depending upon bottled water at that time. Here lies the importance of …

Evaluation of Best Watershed Management Practice for Sediment Yield Reduction (The Case Study of Baro Akobo of Upper Gilo Watershed, Ethiopia)
Abstract: This study aimed to estimate the sediment yield, evaluating its distribution, and compare the selected Best Management Practices (BMPs) and identify relatively effective management practices to alleviate soil erosion and sedimentation yield in the Upper Gillo watershed. Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model with the interface of Geographical Information System (GIS) were used to simulate, streamflow and sediment yield. Meteorological, hydrological and spatial data were used while modeling the …
