A Review of the Water Desalination Technologies
Abstract: Desalination is commonly adopted nowadays to overcome the freshwater scarcity in
some areas of the world if brackish water or salt water is available. Different kinds of technologies
have been proposed in the last century. In this paper, the state of the mainstream solutions is
reported, showing the current commercial technologies like reverse osmosis (RO), Multi-Stages Flash
desalination (MSF) and Multi-Effect Distillation (MED), and the new frontiers of the research with
the aim of exploiting renewable sources such as wind, solar and biomass energy. In these cases,
seawater treatment plants are the same as traditional ones, with the only difference being that they
use a renewable energy source. Thus, classifications are firstly introduced, considering the working
principles, the main energy input required for the treatment, and the potential for coupling with
renewable energy sources. Each technology is described in detail, showing how the process works
and reporting some data on the state of development. Finally, a statistical analysis is given concerning
the spread of the various technologies across the world and which of them are most exploited. In this
section, an important energy and exergy analysis is also addressed to quantify energy losses.

Engineered Nanomaterials for Water Treatment and Remediation
Water is one of the world’s most abundant resources, but less than 1% of the global supply of water is available and safe for human consumption [1]. According to the World Health Organization, over 760 million people were without adequate drinking water supply in 2011 [2]. Where it is available, the cost of potable water is rising due to increasing energy costs, growing populations, and climatic or other environmental issues [1,3]. In addition, an increasing number of drinking water sources are showing evidence of contamination, especially by emerging pollutants like pharmaceuticals and personal care products [4,5]. Many traditional water and wastewater treatment methods do not effectively remove these emerging contaminants, and/or are not capable of removing enough to meet increasingly stringent water quality standards [5,6]. Contamination of surface waters also constitutes a risk to water supplies because pollutants may penetrate into aquifers, where they can be transported to drinking water sources.

Calibration And Verification Of The Hydraulic Model For Blue Nile River from Roseries Dam To Khartoum City
ABSTRACT:
This research represents a practical attempt applied to calibrate and verify a hydraulic model for the Blue Nile River. The calibration procedures are performed using the observed data for a previous period and comparing them with the calibration results while verification requirements are achieved with the application of the observed data for another future period and comparing them with the verification results. The study objective covered a relationship of the river terrain with the distance between the assumed points of the dam failures along the river length. The computed model values and the observed data should conform to the theoretical analysis and the overall verification performance of the model by comparing it with another set of data. The model was calibrated using data from gauging stations (Khartoum, Wad Medani, downstream Sennar, and downstream Roseires) during the period from the 1st of May to 31 of October 1988 and the verification was done using the data of the same gauging stations for years 2003 and 2010 for the same period. The required available data from these stations were collected, processed and used in the model calibration. The geometry input files for the HEC-RAS models were created using a combination of ArcGIS and HEC-GeoRAS. The results revealed high correlation (R2 ˃ 0.9) between the observed and calibrated water levels in all gauging stations during 1988 and also high correlation between the observed and verification water levels was obtained in years 2003 and 2010. Verification results with the equation and degree of correlation can be used to predict future data of any expected data for the same stations.

Governance of Artificial Intelligence in Water and Wastewater Management: The Case Study of Japan
Abstract:
The integration of artificial intelligence into various aspects of daily life is developing at a rapid pace in Japan. Discussions to govern applications of artificial intelligence to the field of social infrastructure are also critical and need to match the rapid pace of development. However, the legal implications and risks of applying artificial intelligence to the management of lifelines such as drinking water supply and wastewater treatment have not yet been fully explored. This paper reviews the existing legislations and ongoing discussions on governance regarding applications of artificial intelligence to water and wastewater management. Based on the review, we discuss the ability of legislative frameworks in Japan to respond to the applications of artificial intelligence, as well as identifying potential gaps and challenges thereof, including access to accurate data, demarcation of rights and responsibilities, risk hedging and risk management, monitoring and evaluation, and handling of intellectual property rights. This paper concludes with key recommendations to national and local governments to support the application of artificial intelligence in the field of water and wastewater.

Determination of Optimal Operating Condition in Nanofiltration (NF) and Reverse Osmosis (RO) During The Treatment of a Tannery Wastewater Stream
Introduction
Industrial wastewater treatment, such as those used for tannery wastewater, is complex due to the variety of chemicals added at different stages of processing of hides and skins. Major problems in tanneries are due to wastewater containing heavy metals, toxic chemicals, chloride, lime with high dissolved and suspended salts and other pollutants (Uberoi, 2003). The tanning process and the effluents generated have already been reported in literature (Wiegant et al., 1999, Sreeram and Ramasami, 2003, Stoop, 2003). Many conventional processes were carried out to treat wastewater such as biological process (Ahn et al., 1996, Vijayaraghavan and Murthy, 1997, Wiemann et al., 1998, Di Iaconi et al., 2003, Farabegoli et al., 2004), oxidation process (Sekaran et al., 1996, Dogruel et al., 2004, Sacco et al., 2012, de Caprariis et al., 2012) and chemical process (Di Iaconi et al., 2001, Orhon et al., 1998, Song et al., 2004) etc. Among these, physical and chemical methods are considered very expensive in terms of energy and reagents consumption (Churchley, 1994, Stern et al., 2003), and generation of excessive sludge (Chu, 2001). To reduce the production of sludge by the treatment of this wastewater combined or alternative systems must be explored. In particular, in this work, two spiral wound membrane modules were used: nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO). The goal of this approach is to insert membranes into the cycle of wastewater treatment in order to remove the entire chain of biological treatment and the resulting post physico[1]chemical residue with a significant reduction of sludge up to 95%. A modified version of the traditional method used to measure critical fluxes of membranes, that is the pressure cycling method, was applied to measure both the critical and the threshold flux on the nanofiltration membrane in order to optimize the operating conditions. Once obtained the critical and threshold flux values, this data was used as input for a batch membrane process optimization method developed previously by Stoller at al. (Stoller and Chianese, 2006, Stoller and Bravi, 2010, Stoller, 2009, Iaquinta et al., 2009, Stoller, 2008, Stoller, 2011). The output of the method indicates the optimal permeate feed flow rate which should be used during the batch in order to inhibit membrane fouling. Finally, the obtained results were compared from an economical point of view with a conventional biological process to validate the membrane plant as possible alternative to conventional process.

Correlation Between BOD5 and COD for Al- Diwaniyah Wastewater Treatment Plants to Obtain The Biodigrability Indices
ABSTRACT
The present study aims to establish an empirical correlation between biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) of the sewage flowing in Al-Diwaniyah wastewater treatment plant. The strength of the wastewater entering the plant varied from medium to high. High concentrations of BOD5 and COD in the effluent were obtained due to the poor performance of the plant. This was observed from the BOD5 /COD ratios that did not confirm with the typical ratios for the treated sewage. Regression equations for BOD5 and COD removal percentages were suggested which can be used to evaluate rapid effluent assessment after the treatment processes or optimal process control to improve the performance of wastewater treatment plants. The average Biodegradability indices (B.I) of Al-Diwaniyah wastewater plants was found to be 0.69. The equations relating the percentage removal of BOD5(y) with influent BOD5(x), y= 0.044x + 80.66 and the percentage removal of COD (y) with influent COD (x), y= 0.045x + 55.15 were found with high correlation R2 =0.72 and 0.86 respectively.
