Significant groundwater depletion in regions where grains are procured for public distribution is a primary sustainability challenge in India. We identify specific changes in the Indian Government’s Procurement & Distribution System as a primary sol
Clean-water production is an established application of interfacial solar evaporation with production rates of up to 81 l m–2 h–1(ref.10) under concentrated sunlight (Fig.2gand Supplementary Table1). Several simple and portable evaporation–condensation solar-powered water purifiers have adv...
Producing and storing self-sustaining drinking water from rainwater for emergency response on isolated island Drinking water on isolated islands includes treated rainwater, water shipped from the mainland, and desalinated seawater. However, marine transportation an... Y Yu,X Chen,Y Wang,... - 《...
Thirdly, the site could be envisioned as a live demonstration of a cyclical water ecology where the processes of water percolation, recharge, extraction and use as a self-sustaining system are visible. Such a re-interpretation of water heritage, in what is essentially a public space, would ...
Sea animals such as leptocephali develop tissues and organs composed of active transparent hydrogels to achieve agile motions and natural camouflage in water. Hydrogel-based actuators that can imitate the capabilities of leptocephali will enable new appl
self-serving purposes. In this instance, the government would like to report that they are in compliance with Uganda’s constitution and national policy, which stipulates that that by the year 2015, 77 percent of the rural population would have access to water and 90 percent of the pumps ...
The evaluation of the economic impacts of industrial self-supply water withdrawals or utility water use is commonly conducted by employing fundamental measures such as water cost and water price [60]. Various water valuation matrices have been used in the manufacturing sector. While profit is the ...

Energy used in irrigation can also be reduced through increased use of technologies like gravity-fed piped water systems, and treadle pumps or other human-powered water lifting devices (Khan et al., 2009). Renewable energy technologies including solar pumped irrigation and production of bioenergy in...
