A non-threshold model to estimate carcinogenic risk of nitrate-nitrite in drinking water

Roohollah Noori et al.

Summary: Understanding the levels of nitrate-nitrite (NO3--NO2-) in drinking water and their associated health risks is crucial for protecting public health. This study reveals a high carcinogenic risk of NO3--NO2- in Tehran's potable water, especially for children. Urgent action is recommended to reduce the permissible level of nitrate in drinking water to safeguard public health.

Water quality index assessment methods for surface water: A case study of the Citarum River in Indonesia

Mariana Marselina et al.

Summary: The water quality index (WQI) is a useful tool for assessing the overall water quality of a river. In this study, different assessment methods were used to determine the water quality of the Citarum River in West Java Province. Based on the results, the NSF WQI method was found to be the most suitable for evaluating the water quality of the river.

Evaluation of Water Quality of Collected Rainwater in the Northeastern Loess Plateau

Pengfei Zhang et al.

Summary: Water resources are scarce in the Northeastern Loess Plateau, but water cellar water (WCW) serves as a vital water source in the region. The study evaluated the quality of WCW by analyzing different factors such as rainfall catchment areas, depths, and storage times. Results showed that the quality of WCW varied depending on the factors considered, with the highest water quality observed in the rainwater harvesting catchment area of tile roof + cement ground. The study also found that water quality improved with increased depth of WCW.

A comprehensive water quality index based on analytical hierarchy process

Herojeet Rajkumar et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the potability of groundwater samples using the water quality index (WQI) and integrated water quality index (IWQI), but the results were contrasting. This led to the development of a new index called comprehensive water quality index (CWQI) based on the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). CWQI proved to be a robust technique for assessing groundwater quality and was recommended for universal use.

A review of water quality index models and their use for assessing surface water quality

Md. Galal Uddin et al.

Summary: The water quality index (WQI) model is a popular tool for evaluating surface water quality, converting extensive data into a single index. While commonly used, the model faces issues such as specificity to regional guidelines and uncertainty in data conversion. This paper compares commonly used WQI models and discusses issues affecting model accuracy.

Hazimah Haspi Harun et al.

Summary: The study aimed to propose a groundwater quality index (GWQI) as a single number representation of water quality, using multivariate analysis to select key parameters such as electrical conductivity, COD, magnesium, calcium, potassium, sodium, and chloride. The GWQI development is expected to benefit the public, practitioners, and industries by detecting and minimizing pollution through its high sensitivity to changes in pollutant parameters.
