This paper is a literature review of environmental systems analysis studies – adopting the LCA (life-cycle assessment) approach – of urban water and wastewater systems. Both with respect to the number of scientific journals referred to and the time-period of publication, the scope has been limited. The time period considered is 2000–2014, and the number […]

Over the past years the southern beach of Nha Trang, located in the south central of Vietnam, has started to indicate signs of erosion in the northern part. As the beach plays an important role for this touristic hotspot, the fear that the erosion will become severe has been raised. The limited knowledge and few […]

A scaled-up, continuous iron electrocoagulation reactor was built for drinking water treatment research. The impact of current density (i), metal loading (ML) and inter-electrode gap (d) on the removal of natural organic matter (NOM) was studied at 1.35 L/min. Removal performance was evaluated using UV-abs-254 and DOC analysis. Larger d provided the greatest reductions in […]

Stormwater is known to be a potentially large contributor of toxic substances to receiving waters. To be able to This study evaluates the potential of using natural plant extract in water treatment and its corresponding effects on the final treated water. Fluorescence excitation-emission matrices (EEMs) were used to characterise NOM in water treated using Okra […]
