Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rainfall, Water Supply, Waterways of the United States When water is made to flow through a layer of sodium permutit, the latter exchanges its soda for the calcium and magnesium salts of the water and the degree of hardness in the latter is reduced to zero. The permutit has to be regenerated as it grows lax in action. This is easily accomplished by washing it for a few hours with a solution of common salt. Man ganese permutit in connection with marble dust removes all iron and acids from waters thus affected. The practice of softening the entire water supply of a municipality has grown steadily and in not a few large manufacturing cities the municipal softening plant is saving the citi zens hundreds of thousands of tons of coal per annum and adding years of life to the community's boilers. The principal require ments are (1) mixing chambers, in which the softening chemicals are thoroughly mixed with the water; (2) capacious settling basins suffi cient to give the necessary time for the slower reactions when the temperature is low, as in winter; (3) a device for adding a coagulant (alum or ferrous sulphate) at both the en trance port and the exit port of the water into and from the settling basins, (4) substantial mechanical filters. In addition, as one of the requisites should be a special apparatus to slake the lime, reduce it to a proper emulsion and feed it in proper quantity automatically into the flowing water. At the municipal water softening plant at Cleveland, Ohio, 000 gallons of water per day require the daily application of 40 tons of quicklime. This is slaked with hot water, mixed into an emulsion in an agitator, taken to tanks where it is cooled and diluted to the proper consistency and finally pumped at a uniform rate into the flowing water.

Seanor and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Red River alluvial aquifer is a relatively undeveloped source of large amounts of freshwater int he pool 2 area of the Red River waterway navigation project in Louisiana. Infiltration of rainfall provides the primary source of recharge to the alluvial aquifer. In general, ground-water levels are highest during December through May, when most of the rainfall occurs and evapotranspiration is low. Ground-water levels are lowest during September and October, when the least rainfall occurs and evapotranspiration is high. Water levels in the alluvial aquifer typically fluctuate 10 feet or less. However, these fluctuations can be much larger in wells near the river. The Red River is hydraulically connected to the alluvial aquifer, and ground-water levels near the river fluctuate in response to changes in river stage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water management is a key environmental issue in controlling of floods and reducing droughts. This book provides analysis of the main issues, offering solutions and describing good practice. Water Resources for the Built Environment: management issues and solutions develops an appreciation of the diverse, complex and current themes of the water resources debate across the built environment, urban development and management continuum. The integration of physical and environmental sciences, combined with social, economic and political sciences, provide a unique resource, useful to policy experts, scientists, engineers and subject enthusiasts. By taking an interdisciplinary approach, water resources issues and impacts on the built environment are presented in the inventive and strategic setting of considering the constraints of delivering potable water to an ever-demanding society who, at the same time, are increasingly aware of living in an urban landscape where excessive surface water creates a flood threatened environment – hence, the need to portray a balance between ‘too little vs. too much’. This unique approach to the water resources debate presents a multifaceted collection of chapters that address the contemporary concomitant issues of water shortage and urban flooding and proffers solutions specifically for the built environment. The book is structured into three parts: the first part (Sections 2, 3 and 4) addresses management issues and solutions to minimise water shortages and provide water security for society; whilst the second part of the book (Sections 5 and 6) addresses management issues and solutions to control excessive rainfall and minimise flooding impacts. The third part (Section 7) contextualises the issues of the earlier sections within international case studies from the developing world.

Download or read book Water Infrastructure for Sustainable Communities written by Xiaodi Hao and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2010-07-31 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new model for water management is emerging worldwide in response to water shortages, polluted waterways, climate change, and loss of biodiversity. Cities and towns are questioning the ecological and financial sustainability of big-pipe water, stormwater, and sewer systems and are searching for “lighter footprint” more sustainable solutions. Pilot projects are being built that use, treat, store, and reuse water locally and that build distributed designs into restorative hydrology. This book has been developed from the conference on Sustainable Water Infrastructure for Villages and Cities of the Future (SWIF2009) held in November 2009 in Beijing (China) that brought together an international gathering of experts in urban water and drainage infrastructure, landscape architecture, economics, environmental law, citizen participation, utility management, green building, and science and technology development. Water Infrastructure for Sustainable Communities China and the World reveals how imaginative concepts are being developed and implemented to ensure that cities, towns, and villages and their water resources can become ecologically sustainable and provide clean water. With both urban and rural waters as a focal point, the links between water quality and hydrology, landscape, and the broader concepts of green cities/villages and smart development are explored. The book focuses on decentralized concepts of potable water, stormwater, and wastewater management that would provide clean water. It results in water management systems that would be resilient to extreme events such as excessive flows due to extreme meteorological events, severe droughts, and deteriorated water and urban ecosystem quality. A particular emphasis is placed on learning lessons from the many innovative projects being designed in China and other initiatives around the world. The principal audience for the book is university faculty and students, scientists in research institutes, water professionals, governmental organizations, NGOs, urban landscape architects and planners.
