“…To examine the impact of the voltage and the operating time of 60 min within the ECF process, the investigation was conducted at 6 V, 12 V, and 24 V, with an Al-Fe-Al-Fe electrode combination. It was observed when the voltage was applied, i.e., from 6 to 24 volts, the results highlight the increasing trends in the removal efficiency between 83 to 94%, for the COD, TDSs, chloride, and turbidity characteristics, due to the formation of (OH)n, which directly targets the flocs growth and charge neutralization of the Al 3+ and Fe 2+ ions during electrolysis [37][38][39][40][41].…”

Greywater is the most sustainable option to address the growing need for fresh water. This study aimed to identify the optimal operation variables of an electro-coagulation filtration (ECF) system for treating domestic greywater, using different conditions (e.g., different electrode combinations (Al-Fe-Al-Fe), initial pH (6.8–8.4), operating time (10–60 min), and voltage (6–24 volts)). A statistical data analysis was performed to evaluate the experimental conditions for modeling the chemical oxygen demand (COD), the total dissolved solids (TDSs), turbidity, and chloride removal effectiveness, almost ranging from (85 to 94%), respectively, with energy consumption using the response surface methodology (RSM) and the ANOVA test. When comparing the experimental and predicted model values, it was proved that the model fairly describes the experimental values with the R2 values determined >0.99 for COD, TDSs, turbidity, chloride, and energy consumption, suggesting a regression sustainability of the model. The sludge properties were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and FTIR spectroscopy, which indicated the removal of organic matter during the ECF, similar in composition, independently of the different applied voltage values used. The results of this study suggest the ECF significantly reduces the pollutants load in greywater, showing the aluminum-iron-based electrodes as a viable option to treat greywater with optimal operational costs ranging from (0.12 to 0.4) US$ m−3 under different voltage conditions and parameters. This study establishes a path for greywater treatment technology that is economical and environmentally responsible for wastewater management that leads to sustainability.

Present work illustrates the planning, designing and cost optimization of water supply system for Isapur village. In this work, a piped setup of distribution is evaluated for pre forecasted inhabitants for upcoming 50 decades. In any conventional schemes, the task of water transportation is made with the help of healthy premeditated distribution by optimizing appropriate dia-meter of conduits as it carriages the chief asset of the project. Planning, designing and cost optimization of a piped setup of distribution is a difficult and effort consuming job. These days bunch of pipe related software are accessible that can be worn rightfully for planning, designing and cost optimization purpose. Handling such software demands together capital and skills. Today every now and then, it is a requisite to carry out planning, designing and cost optimization of a simple piped network for which an easy technique will be suitable. In this present work, a trouble-free system is evaluated which can be worn appropriate for optimization and designing of piped setup of distribution. For this purpose Isapur village is selected. The crisis in this job has been sorted with a vision of cost optimization of piped distribution setup rewarding the required discharge for the Isapur village. Researchers in the current work made use of BRANCH software of version 3. It is a simple PC coding program that evaluates simulation of hydraulic behaviour within under pressure piped setups. This PC coding program tracks the water-flow in every conduit, the required pressure at every junction points, the staging height and the water head of every tank.

“…Probiotics are widely used in agriculture, animal husbandry, aquaculture, environmental management, and other fields [ 16 , 17 , 18 ]. They can help maintain microbial balance, promote the proliferation of beneficial microorganisms, and suppress the growth of pathogenic microorganisms, thereby improving water quality and promoting the healthy growth of aquatic animals [ 19 ].…”

Recently, probiotics have been widely applied for the in situ remediation of aquatic water. Numerous studies have proved that probiotics can regulate water quality by improving the microbial community. Nitrogen cycling, induced by microorganisms, is a crucial process for maintaining the balance of the aquatic ecosystem. Nevertheless, the underlying mechanisms by which probiotics enhance water quality in aquatic systems remain poorly understood. To explore the water quality indicators and their correlation with nitrogen cycling-related functional genes, metagenomic analysis of element cycling was performed to identify nitrogen cycling-related functional genes in Coilia nasus aquatic water between the control group (C) and the groups supplemented with probiotics in feed (PF) or water (PW). The results showed that adding probiotics to the aquatic water could reduce the concentrations of ammonia nitrogen (NH4+-N), nitrite (NO2−-N), and total nitrogen (TN) in the water. Community structure analysis revealed that the relative abundance of Verrucomicrobiota was increased from 30 d to 120 d (2.61% to 6.35%) in the PW group, while the relative abundance of Cyanobacteria was decreased from 30 d to 120 d (5.66% to 1.77%). We constructed a nitrogen cycling pathway diagram for C. nasus aquaculture ponds. The nitrogen cycle functional analysis showed that adding probiotics to the water could increase the relative abundance of the amoC_B and hao (Nitrification pathways) and the nirS and nosZ (Denitrification pathways). Correlation analysis revealed that NH4+-N was significantly negatively correlated with Limnohabitans, Sediminibacterium, and Algoriphagus, while NO2−-N was significantly negatively correlated with Roseomonas and Rubrivivax. Our study demonstrated that adding probiotics to the water can promote nitrogen element conversion and migration, facilitate nitrogen cycling, benefit ecological environment protection, and remove nitrogen-containing compounds in aquaculture systems by altering the relative abundance of nitrogen cycling-related functional genes and microorganisms.
