Assessing the Impact of Water Efficiency Policies on Qatar’s Electricity and Water Sectors by Athar Kamal (17191843)

“…Further results suggest that while replacing groundwater with desalinated water can increase the energy consumption significantly, reuse of treated wastewater has almost the same footprint as groundwater, but can increase the resilience of the system considerably as groundwater abstraction levels are lowered to their renewal rates</p><p dir="ltr"><br></p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Energies<br>License: <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.3390/en14144348" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.3390/en14144348</a></p>…”

Differential water quality in confined and free-flowing water bodies, Lebanon by Korfali, Samira Ibrahim

“…Statistical analysis of the data revealed significant differences in water quality. The differences could be attributed to the fact that whereas the Qaraaoun reservoir is receiving domestic waste discharges that lead to an increase in the CO2 content and a pH decrease, the Nahr-Ibrahim River is influenced by agricultural runoffs and industrial discharges that increase the pH values. …”

Photoactivatable RuII Complex Bearing 2,9‐Diphenyl‐1,10‐phenanthroline: Unusual Photochemistry and Significant Potency on Cisplatin‐Resistant Cell Lines by Mansour, Najwa

“…Upon excitation with visible light, complex 2 proved to be photostable while complex 1 underwent a quantitative dissociation of the bipy ligand and formation of a RuII polypyridyl aqua complex in water. Complex 1 demonstrated only marginal activity in the dark; its cytotoxicity increased significantly upon photoactivation with a high phototoxicity index (PI = [IC50 dark]/[IC50 light]) ranging from 39.2‐fold in A549 to over 100‐fold in MDA‐MB‐231. …”

A system dynamics approach to management of water resources in Qatar by Khawar Naeem (17984062)

“…Our results reveal that the “business-as-usual” (BAU) WRM policy can balance water supply and demand for only 32 years. According to the best policy scenario, the sustainability of the water supply could be ensured for up to 50 years by increasing the water supply by 10 % and reducing consumption by 10 %. …”

Enhancing eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) yield and water use efficiency through optimized irrigation and nitrogen practices in open field conditions by Adewale Suraj, Bello

“…Applying 70 kg N ha−1 during deficit irrigation (I1 + F2) produced the highest fruit yield compared to other treatments, although no significant difference was found with I1 + F1. The study highlights the importance of optimized nitrogen and irrigation management for maximizing eggplant production in water-limited environments.…”
