It’s Time to Remove the Pump Handle (Again)_Crimson Publishers

 It’s Time to Remove the Pump Handle (Again) by Edward Mc Bean  Crimson publishers :  Advancements in Civil Engineering & Technology Opinion Go to In 1854, one of the founders of modern epidemiology, Dr. John Snow, removed the handle from the Broad Street pump, in London, England.  This seminal moment was based on Dr. Snow’s realization that the cholera plague raging through London was occurring due to people accessing this particular public water well.  The public water well had been dug only 3 feet from a cesspit which had become contaminated by the diapers from a baby who had contracted cholera from another source. By removing the handle of the pump, Dr. Snow’s action is widely credited as instrumental in ending the outbreak of cholera in London. Now, consider the situation with COVID 19 in, for example, Zimbabwe. The situation in Zimbabwe as detailed by Cathy Buckle ( http://cathybuckle.co.zw ) describes Ms. Buckle venturing out very early on Day 5 of Zi...

 Carbon Electrodes Electrolysis Process in Removing COD, Turbidity and Color for Textile Wastewater by Yusoff MS in   Crimson publishers :  Advancements in Civil Engineering & Technology Abstract Go to This paper investigates the removal efficiency of textile wastewater using electrolysis process by carbon electrodes. The performance of COD, turbidity, and color reductions was evaluated under different conditions of pH, voltage usage, and distance between electrodes. The optimum conditions were determined, and the size of the flocs using these conditions was determined. Results showed that maximum COD, turbidity and color reduction were achieved under optimum pH6 conditions, constant 9V voltage, and 1cm distance between the electrodes with an average of 85.5%, 89.2%, and 85.2% respectively. It was found that higher voltage value, shorter distance between electrodes and neutral pH resulted in higher removal efficiency. The flocs size was found to be higher in the ...
