We present a human centric cyber physical framework architecture of our in-pipe water monitoring and feedback system. This system comprises of the physical water distribution infrastructure, together with the hardware and software supported intelligent agents for water allotment, leak detection and contamination spread control. An agent-based approach for connecting the cyber and physical layers is...
Zhangze Reservoir, which plays significant role to fulfill industrial and municipal water supply, irrigation and flood control, is one of the water source of Changzhi City in Shanxi Province, China. At present, water pollution of Zhangze Reservoir has exerted enormous influences on sustainable development of the basin, and produced greater threat to the health of people surrounding the reservoir....
Dissolved organic matters in organic-polluted raw water and their potential to from disinfection by-products during drinking water treatment raise great challenges to the traditional water treatment process. Although many pre-treatment and post-treatment methods have been widely studied to improve the water quality of tap water, these methods are more or less constrained by the public finance or the...
Lack of safe drinking water is a major problem in rural areas, it also persists in places like irrigation districts. this study was carried out to establish the accessibility of water in rural areas of Jinghuiqu Irrigation District(JHQID). In these areas, main sources of water for domestic purposes were groundwater and the piped water coverage rate was low, only 1,204,500 residents got their drinking...
An integrated rehabilitation program of the urban water environment (UWE), was proposed against deterioration of the UWE in Guilin City, China. Four measures of water conservancy, pollution control, ecological rehabilitation and landscape construction were developed to achieve many objectives including plentiful water, safe supply, steady system and attractive scenery. During the 1st period project,...
The Yellow River in China is being polluted with artificial pollution, which brings great challenges to drinking water treatment plants along the Yellow River. The conventional treatment processes could not ensure satisfactory quality of drinking water, and the innovative processes are crucial for the achievement of the newly issued drinking water standard (GB5749-2006).Ultra filtration (UF) technology...
Microcystines (MCs) are well known as its hepatotoxins produced by blooms of toxin cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) abundant in surface water used as drinking water resource and have drawn attention of environmentalists world over by the adverse health effects. The affects and the reaction character of ClO2 removing MC-RR were studied, and the results show that ClO2 can remove MC-RR effectively. When...
In urban water supply system, the water quality detecting indices such as pH value are monitored continuously. When the indices exceed the limiting value, the system will effectively handle the treatment against accident to ensure the safety of water. Because the water in pipelines has random fluctuation, it is difficult to find the problem in time only by the means of limiting value. This paper presents...
