Download or read book Autonomous Real Time Water Quality Monitoring System written by Aljon Salalila and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Existing water quality monitoring systems near hydropower facilities are limited by the lack of mobility of the sensors' carrier platform. Most systems use a buoy, a mounting fixture attached to a solid structure, or a human worker, which significantly limits the selection of the sampling sites and poses safety risks during data collection and equipment maintenance. To improve on this technology, an autonomous water quality monitoring system is developed that can operate at the forebay and tailrace region of the hydropower plants in dangerous water environments. The design and development of the proposed system includes a remotely operated vehicle as the mobile monitoring platform, a dissolved oxygen sensor for monitoring water quality, a tether management system for automatically winding the tether, a solar mobile docking platform for supplying power to the remotely operated vehicle, and a web-based graphical user interface for data post-processing and visualization. Preliminary field deployment results from McNary Dam and High Rock Dam are presented to demonstrate the system capabilities. The goal is to enable safe, timely, and comprehensive water-quality data collection; maximize hydropower generation revenue with improved operational control; and reduce Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and state water quality monitoring costs for compliance.

Download or read book Smart and Low Cost Real Time Water Quality Monitoring System Using IoT written by Jeba Anandh S and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now a day's water pollution is one of the biggest fears for the green globalization. To prevent the water pollution, first we have to estimate the water parameters like pH, turbidity, temperature and TDS as the variations in the values of these parameters point towards the presence of pollutants. In this project we design and develop a low cost system for real time monitoring of the water quality in IoT. Nowadays Internet of Things (IoT) and Remote Sensing (RS) techniques are used in different area of research for monitoring, collecting and analysis data from remote locations. This project proposes a Sensor-Based Water Quality Monitoring System which is used for measuring physical and chemical parameters of the water. The parameters such as Temperature, pH, TDS and water level of the water can be measured and the system provides a visual image of interior part of water container using raspberry pi camera. The measured values from the sensors can be processed by the core controller. The Raspberry Pi model can be used as a core controller. Finally, the sensor data can be viewed on internet using cloud storage (Thingspeak). The system also provides an alert to a remote user, when there is a deviation of water quality parameters from the predefined set of standard values. The uniqueness of our proposed paper is to obtain the water monitoring system with high frequency, high mobility, and low powered.

Download or read book Smart Water Management written by Henning Bjornlund and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-22 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contributes to the debate about the suitability and challenges of the Smart Water Management (SWM) approach. Smart Water Management has increasingly been promoted to manage water and wastewater more efficiently and cost effectively by industries and utilities in urban contexts at regional or city scales, while reducing overall consumption. It is based on the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to provide real-time, automated data to resolve water challenges. Many of these technologies are complex and costly, however, and the approach tends to overlook cheaper and less high-tech (softer) approaches to address the same problems. Yet there may be opportunities for using them even in resource short rural communities in developing countries. The book includes examples of SWM systems in practice in diverse locations from Korea, Mexico, Paris, the Canary Islands and southern Africa, aimed at addressing a diverse set of problems, including monitoring water supply to refugees. Critical voices highlight the need for smart institutions to accompany smart technologies, the absurdity of applying SWM to dysfunctional legacy infrastructure systems, whether its adoption raises moral hazards, and whether SWM is the latest example of hegemonic masculinity in water management. The chapters in this book were originally published in Water International.

Download or read book Bacterial Sensors written by Jan Roelof van der Meer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bacterial reporters are live, genetically engineered cells with promising application in bioanalytics. They contain genetic circuitry to produce a cellular sensing element, which detects the target compound and relays the detection to specific synthesis of so-called reporter proteins (the presence or activity of which is easy to quantify). Bioassays with bacterial reporters are a useful complement to chemical analytics because they measure biological responses rather than total chemical concentrations. Simple bacterial reporter assays may also replace more costly chemical methods as a first line sample analysis technique. Recent promising developments integrate bacterial reporter cells with microsystems to produce bacterial biosensors. This lecture presents an in-depth treatment of the synthetic biological design principles of bacterial reporters, the engineering of which started as simple recombinant DNA puzzles, but has now become a more rational approach of choosing and combining sensing, controlling and reporting DNA 'parts'. Several examples of existing bacterial reporter designs and their genetic circuitry will be illustrated. Besides the design principles, the lecture also focuses on the application principles of bacterial reporter assays. A variety of assay formats will be illustrated, and principles of quantification will be dealt with. In addition to this discussion, substantial reference material is supplied in various Annexes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the pollutants discharged into the sea are directly or indirectly the result of human activities. Some of these substances are biodegradable, while others are not. This study is devoted to monitoring areas of the environment. Methods assessment is based on monitoring data and an evaluation of the impact of pollution.Surveillance provides a scientific basis for standards development and application. The methodology of marine pollution control is governed by algorithms and models. A monitoring strategy should be put in place, coupled with an environmental assessment concept, through targeted research activities in areas identified at local and regional levels. This concept will make it possible to diagnose the state of "health" of these zones and consequently to correct any anomalies. Monitoring of the marine and coastal environment is based on recent methods and validated after experiments in the field of marine pollution.
