Engineering approaches to wastewater treatment must aim for more than improved efficiency. Water is essential to any form of life on Earth — we need enough of it and of the right quality. This is so much at the core of sustainability that we have written about it in previous editorials (Nat. Sustain. 1, 151–152 […] More

Prevalence of E. coli The prevalence of E. coli and total coliform colony-forming unit per milliliter (cfu mL−1) is presented (Table 1) along with in-situ parameters such as pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), oxidation–reduction potential (ORP), salinity, and temperature. E. coli in the river ranged between 19,467 and 76,600 cfu mL−1, which is an […] More
