AI Technology Could Help Protect Water Supplies
Progress on new artificial intelligence (AI) technology could make monitoring at water treatment plants cheaper and easier and help safeguard public health. Researchers at the University of Waterloo have developed AI software capable of identifying and quantifying different kinds of cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae, a threat to shut down water systems when it suddenly proliferates. “We need to protect our water supplies,” said Monica Emelko, a professor of civil and environmental enginee...
Quiet Drinking Water Revolution Underway in Baltic Sea as Island Nature Reserve Goes off the Water Grid
Stockholm, Sweden, July 17, 2018 – A Swedish Baltic island renowned for its natural beauty is quietly shifting away from its old water access model towards a self-reliant, local generation approach that creates on-demand clean drinking water direct from the sea. With aquifer reserves depleting fast due to the annual influx of 600,000 people every summer, the revolution in water harvesting on hugely popular Sandhamn Island, just two hours boat ride from Stockholm, the Swedish capital, is being...

€12m HYDROUSA Project Aims to Douse Mediterranean Drought
Drought-prone Mediterranean islands could soon be awash with recovered water, thanks to a new multi-million-euro project launched in Athens. Led by researchers at Brunel University London and the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), the €12m HYDROUSA project aims to close the ‘water loop’ by demonstrating how nature-based technologies can be used to recover fresh water and nutrients from wastewater, groundwater and water vapour. Funded by the EU’s Horizon 2020 programme, the 54-...
Clean Water From Cows? Regenis System Re(Moo)ves Impurities
FERNDALE, Wash. - How 2,500 cows can produce water clean enough for drinking is about to be answered on a dairy in the Northwest corner of Washington State. Last week, the Washington State Conservation Commission (WSCC) awarded a $930,305 grant to install and operate a clean water membrane technology system provided by Regenis, an agricultural waste solutions company, to be located at Coldstream Farms in Deming, WA. This state-of-the-art system will generate 12,000 gallons of clean water d...

Study Examines Urban Implications of Temporal Rainfall Resolution
A Chinese study examines how variability in rainfall over time affects hydrological processes and what that means for urban flood control. Among other things, results indicate that peak flooding is affected by temporal resolution of rainfall, while volume typically remains unaffected. Abstract Rainfall exhibits substantial variability, and its temporal resolution considerably affects simulation of hydrological processes. This study aims to investigate t...
