1998
Popovic, V. (Institut za zemljiste, Beograd (Yugoslavia)) | Ivanovic, S. | Ivanovic, S. | Petrovic, P.
In this paper, we are consider processing of soils erosion and his way on protection expoitation of water for population water supply, melioration's systems for irrigation and for strew of manger of the Lim river with the tug and suspend bank (Montenegro, Yugoslavia). We are given suggestions for protective utilization of agricultural and forest lands and the possibilities of water exploitation from Bistrica river (Montenegro, Yugoslavia). That is useful for fishing, irrigation, energetic, tourism and water supply. In this paper, you can meet some suggestions about exploitations of minerals and organic fertilizars that are not toxics and they not any influence on pollution of land and water.

1994
Rogers, H.H. | Runion, G.B. | Krupa, S.V.
Empirical records provide incontestable evidence of global changes: foremost among these changes is the rising concentration of CO(2) in the earth's atmosphere. Plant growth is nearly always stimulated by elevation of CO(2). Photosynthesis increases, more plant biomass accumulates per unit of water consumed, and economic yield is enhanced. The profitable use of supplemental CO(2) over years of greenhouse practice points to the value of CO(2) for plant production. Plant responses to CO(2) are known to interact with other environmental factors, e.g. light, temperature, soil water, and humidity. Important stresses including drought, temperature, salinity, and air pollution have been shown to be ameliorated when CO(2) levels are elevated. In the agricultural context, the growing season has been shortened for some crops with the application of more CO(2); less water use has generally, but not always, been observed and is under further study; experimental studies have shown that economic yield for most crops increases by about 33% for a doubling of ambient CO(2) concentration. However, there are some reports of negligible or negative effects. Plant species respond differently to CO(2) enrichment, therefore, clearly competitive shifts within natural communities could occur. Though of less importance in managed agro-ecosystems, competition between crops and weeds could also be altered. Tissue composition can vary as CO(2) increases (e.g. higher C: N ratios) leading to changes in herbivory, but tests of crop products (consumed by man) from elevated CO(2) experiments have generally not revealed significant differences in their quality. However, any CO(2)-induced change in plant chemical or structural make-up could lead to alterations in the plant's interaction with any number of environmental factors-physicochemical or biological. Host-pathogen relationships, defense against physical stressors, and the capacity to overcome resource shortages could be impacted by rises in CO(2). Root biomass is known to increase but, with few exceptions, detailed studies of root growth and function are lacking. Potential enhancement of root growth could translate into greater rhizodeposition, which, in turn, could lead to shifts in the rhizosphere itself. Some of the direct effects of CO(2) on vegetation have been reasonably well-studied, but for others work has been inadequate. Among these neglected areas are plant roots and the rhizosphere. Therefore, experiments on root and rhizosphere response in plants grown in CO(2)-enriched atmospheres will be reviewed and, where possible, collectively integrated. To this will be added data which have recently been collected by us. Having looked at the available data base, we will offer a series of hypotheses which we consider as priority targets for future research.

The economy and economics of water policy, water management and waterpower engineering | Ekonomija i ekonomika u vodnoj politici, upravljanju vodama i vodoprivredi

Bajčetić, M., Javno vodoprivredno preduzeće Vode Vojvodine, Novi Sad (Serbia)
The paper deals with determination of the economic elements of water management, which reflect the specific foundations, processes, principles and goals that are determined by the water policy. In terms of services, this represents the economic valorization of the foundations in manageable and unmanageable technical and natural systems, in which processes take place to bring water to a certain target quantity and quality, as well as provide safety against water in time and space. The use of, and protection against water, are under the pressures and influence of natural climatic and soil factors, the balance condition of surface and groundwater, and in particular human activities and demands for the characteristics of water in a water body, water area and in the river basin. These factors influence the demand for services, which also depends on the available domestic product, its volume of use, tastes and preferences. The offer consists of services for a particular quantity and quality of the available water, and for a certain degree of safety from the harmful effects of water, which are achieved by the employees of the functional facilities and systems. Together with the activities of the association, population and public services, the use of, and protection against water make up the totality of water management. It requires a decision process in all of the functions involved in planning, organization, management and control. Water management is identified with the water policy and activity, although there is a difference between them. The first is represented by a decision-making system in planning, organization, management and control, while the second is represented by the activity systems of government in the field of protection against water, as well as the protection and use of water. The activity consist of certain services which are performed by the employees of the companies, through the provision and performance of water management services in various time and space, in accordance with the offer and the demands of the users.

2012
Oliveira, M. | Machado, A. V. | Nogueira, R.
An excess of phosphorus (P) is the most common cause of eutrophication of freshwater bodies. Thus, it is imperative to reduce the concentration of P to prevent harmful algal blooms. Moreover, recovery of P has been gaining importance because its natural source will be exhausted in the near future. Therefore, the present work investigated the removal and recovery of phosphate from water using a newly developed hybrid nanocomposite containing aluminium nanoparticles (HPN). The HPN-Pr removes 0.80 ± 0.01 mg P/g in a pH interval between 2.0 and 6.5. The adsorption mechanism was described by a Freundlich adsorption model. The material presented good selectivity for phosphate and can be regenerated using an HCl dilute solution. The factors that contribute most to the attractiveness of HPN-Pr as a phosphate sorbent are its moderate removal capacity, feasible production at industrial scale, reuse after regeneration and recovery of phosphate.

2011
Sekomo, Christian B. | Nkuranga, Egide | Rousseau, Diederik P. L. | Lens, P. N. L. (Piet N. L)
The Nyabugogo natural wetland (Kigali City, Rwanda) receives all kinds of untreated wastewaters, including those from industrial areas. This study monitored heavy metal concentrations (Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, and Zn) in all environmental compartments of the swamp: water and sediment, the dominant plant species Cyperus papyrus, and fish (Clarias sp. and Oreochromis sp.) and Oligochaetes. Cr, Cu, and Zn concentrations in the water were generally below the WHO (2008) drinking water standards, whereas Cd and Pb were consistently above these limits. Except Cd, all metal concentrations were below the threshold levels for irrigation. The highest metal accumulation occurred in the sediment with up to 4.2 mg/kg for Cd, 68 mg/kg for Cu, 58.3 mg/kg for Pb, and 188.0 mg/kg for Zn, followed by accumulation in the roots of C. papyrus with up to 4.2 mg/kg for Cd, 45.8 mg/kg for Cr, 29.7 mg/kg for Cu, and 56.1 mg/kg for Pb. Except Cu and Zn, other heavy metal (Cd, Cr, and Pb) concentrations were high in Clarias sp., Oreochromis sp., and Oligochaetes. Therefore, there is a human health concern for people using water and products from the swamp.
