Assessment of water, sanitation, and hygiene services in district health care facilities in rural area of Mekong Delta, Vietnam
Klaus Benedikt Schönenberger, Solomzi Makohliso
Access to sufficient water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services is a crucial requirement for patients during therapy and general well-being in the hospital. However, in low- and middle-income countries, these services are often inadequate, resulting in ...
SPRINGER2022Introducing flexibility in alpine small hydropower plants using smart storage
Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Jessica Zordan, Steve Crettenand
Small hydropower plants can improve their proficiency if they are able to become more flexible on power production, answering the need of peak energy demand, following the needs of the energy market and providing ancillary services in the electricity suppl ...
Hydropower&Dams, Aqua Media International2019Reduction of process steam demand and water-usage through heat integration in sugar and ethanol production from sugarcane - Evaluation of different plant configurations
The sugarcane industry represents one of the most important economic activities in Brazil producing sugar and ethanol for the internal and external markets. There are also plants dedicated only to ethanol production. The aim of this study is to accomplish ...
2017Dynamic water allocation policies improve the global efficiency of storage systems
Water impoundment by dams strongly affects the river natural flow regime, its attributes and the related ecosystem biodiversity. Fostering the sustainability of water uses e.g., hydropower systems thus implies searching for innovative operational policies ...
Elsevier2017Competing effects of volume change and water uptake on the water retention behaviour of a compacted MX-80 bentonite/sand mixture
Anne-Catherine Adolphine M Dieudonné
Bentonite-based materials have been studied as potential barriers for the geological disposal of radioactive waste. In this context, the hydro-mechanical behaviour of the engineered barrier is first characterized by free swelling conditions (as a consequen ...
Elsevier2016On the role of water density fluctuations in the inhibition of a proton channel
Lucie Monique Françoise Delemotte
Hv1 is a transmembrane four-helix bundle that transports protons in a voltage-controlled manner. Its crucial role in many pathological conditions, including cancer and ischemic brain damage, makes Hv1 a promising drug target. Starting from the recently sol ...
