Weirs are installed on open channels to adjust and measure the flow. Also, discharge coefficient is considered as the most important hydraulic parameter of a weir. In this study, using the Radial Base Neural Networks (RBNN) ...

Water supply from rivers is accomplished with flow diversion through an intake structure. A lateral intake like bifurcation is the simplest method to withdraw water. However, flow at a channel bifurcation is turbulent, ...

Reverse osmosis (RO) has proven to be an efficient technique for desalination of seawater, brackish water, and reclaimed wastewater. However, the performance of RO desalination is sensitive to its design parameters and ...

Flow through open channels can contain solids. The deposition of solids occasionally occurs due to insufficient flow velocity to transfer the solid particles, causing many problems with transfer systems. Therefore, a method ...

The degradation of an industrial wastewater (Tire Cord factory) with low BOD5/COD ratio (0.1-0.2) was investigated using advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) (i.e. hydrogen peroxide, UV/H2O2, O3/H2O2 and UV/O3/H2O2 treatments). ...

Oil refinery wastewater as the most polluting industrial wastewater contain various hydrocarbons and sulfur with its derivatives and can cause problems in biological systems by the production of sulfuric acid. Variations ...
