Optimization of the Factors Influencing Chlorine Decay in Intermittent Water Supply Systems: Box-Behnken Design Approach

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56542/w.jwempo.v2.i2.a6.2025

Abstract: Chlorine decay in water distribution systems is a critical challenge that impacts disinfection efficiency and public health. This study systematically investigates the effects of pH, flow rate, pipe length, and stagnation time on chlorine residual loss through a controlled experimental framework. [...] Read more

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) Measures in reducing Runoff at the Water Institute in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56542/w.jwempo.v2.i2.a9.2025

Abstract: Rapid urbanization in cities like Dar es Salaam has led to increased stormwater runoff due to expanding impervious surfaces and insufficient drainage systems. The Water Institute, one of the region’s fastest-growing institutions, is also experiencing these pressures. This study investigates [...] Read more
