Brackish Water Can be Used as Power Plant Coolant

According to NETL, using brackish water to cool power plants can reduce freshwater consumption by 94% to 100%. Brackish water is water that is not suitable for drinking or irrigation because it contains between 1,000 and 35,000 parts per million of dissolved solids. The study's findings were published online by Nature Portfolio and are available here.

Management of Water and Energy Nexus is crucial for the future of India

 India is one of the world's most water-stressed countries, with only 4% of the world's water supply but 18% of the population. And, in recent years, India's rapid economic rise has only increased demand for both energy and water, putting these interconnected resources under increasing stress and making the nexus between them crucial for the country's energy security and transition goals. Agriculture consumes 80% of India's water, but water is also essential to the country's energy sector, particularly for electricity generation. Over the next two decades, India's power sector will develop against a backdrop of increasing water stress, climate change, and rising water demand from its agricultural, residential, and industrial sectors. A continuation of current water-usage trends.f current water usage trends continue, the projected demand for water will be far in excess of the available supply, threatening the country's energy output. However, India has a chance. Based on current policy settings, over 70% of electricity generation in 2040 is expected to come from yet-to-be-built power plants. Technologies that can meet this demand while reducing pressure on the country's precious water resources are already available.

Potential treatment for grey water reuse: AN Indian perspective

A filtration system with multiple filter layers was created. It had a chemical oxygen demand removal efficiency of 85.98%, a biochemical oxygen demand removal efficiency of 86.28%, and a total suspended solids removal efficiency of 94.44%. This study's filter system describes improved removal efficiency in all aspects and provides an idea of the reusability of in-house treated greywater. According to the findings of the study, greywater can be recycled and reused for toilet flushing, gardening, car washing, and firefighting. This practice can also result in a significant reduction in freshwater consumption.

Water, food, and energy are all in high demand

Water, food, and energy are intertwined and central to sustainable development. Agriculture is the world's largest consumer of freshwater resources, and water is used to produce most of the energy. Demand for all three is rapidly increasing. Governments must ensure integrated and sustainable management of water, food, and energy to balance the needs of people, nature, and the economy in order to withstand current and future pressures.

Five ideas to open startups in water filter industry

  Below are five innovative startup ideas related to water filters: 1. Develop an app or device that can monitor the water filter candles and provide notifications to the user when maintenance or replacement is required. This could help homeowners keep track of the health of their water filter and ensure that it's functioning optimally at all times. 2. Create an in-situ water quality monitoring device and app for home water filters. This device would provide users with real-time information about the quality of their water and identify any potential issues that need to be addressed. This could be especially helpful for homeowners who rely on well water or live in areas with poor water quality. 3. Reuse wastewater from reverse osmosis filters by channeling it through a gravity filter. This would allow homeowners to save money on their water bills and reduce their environmental footprint by reusing water that would otherwise go to waste. 4. Design an in-situ energy monitoring device ...

Five Models Traditionally Used For Electrical Load Predictions : Issue 1 of WENexus Letters

Load forecasting is a technique used by power companies to predict the power or energy needed to balance the supply and load demand at all times. A load model is a mathematical representation of the relation between the demand and supply of power to a system, specifically, power generating units like thermal or hydropower plant. Based on the forecasted load, the mechanism to generate power is adjusted. This way power plant conserves the fuel used in power generation and also minimize the cost of running the plant(i.e., operational cost). This edition of WENexus Letters is dedicated to 'load prediction models' which are extremely important for sustaining the profitability of any type of power plant.
