Evaluation of water quality of Chahnimeh as natural reservoirs from Sistan region in southwestern Iran: a Monte Carlo simulation and Sobol sensitivity assessment.

Maintaining the water quality is essential because of the limitation of drinking water bodies and their significant effects on life. Recently, much scientific interest has been attracted to the ecological condition assessment of water resources. Because of numerous health issues connected to water quality, the present work aimed to define the water quality status of Chahnimeh reservoirs, Sistan and Baluchistan province, Iran via the Iran Water Quality Index (IRWQISC), the National Sanitation Foundation Water Quality Index (NSFWQI), and human risk assessment.

Activated carbon derived from fern: a high-adsorption-capacity adsorbent for residual ampicillin in pharmaceutical wastewater.

Unlabelled: In this study, the effectiveness of activated carbon prepared from the fern (ACAF) in order to remove ampicillin from aqueous solution was examined. The preparation of the ACAF was performed through chemical and physical activation processes with the presence of ZnCl and at a temperature of 450 °C. The ACAF yield was 44.
