Using Methods to Assess the Structure of Water and Water-Containing Systems to Improve the Properties of Living and Non-Living Systems

Water (Switzerland)
This paper explores how water and water-based systems change their structure under different conditions, such as pH, temperature, and electric fields. These changes affect the properties and performance of living and non-living systems that use water or water-based systems in various technologies.

Living with Water Stress: Evolution of Osmolyte Systems

Science, 1982
Striking convergent evolution is found in the properties of the organic osmotic solute (osmolyte) systems observed in bacteria, plants, and animals. Polyhydric alcohols, free amino acids and their derivatives, and combinations of urea and methylamines are the three types of osmolyte systems found in all water-stressed organisms except the halobacteria.

Sea Water-mineral Substance-living Matter System

Procedia Earth and Planetary Science, 2017
Formation of hydrocarbons in the seawater - mineral substance - living matter system is modeled. Some systems of various living matter compositions and stoichiometry and also at several sets of T,P parameters are simulated. During diagenesis kerogens and hydrocarbons are formed. The equilibrium constant of the reaction between oily kerogen and oxidized

Engaging Communities and Extending the Lives of Water Systems with Technology

2021
It takes more than just good intentions and money to provide a community with a reliable source of clean water. Most water systems installed in Africa will fail within the first few years because of insufficient technical planning, lack of community investment and improper maintenance.

Water distribution systems as living ecosystems: Impact on taste and odor

Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part A, 2010
Six waters from different U.S. cities with known diverse taste and odor (TO) evaluations were selected for additional microbial characterization. All waters were subjected to microbial and cultural analyses, and four of the waters were further analyzed by cloning and sequencing of community 16S rRNA.

Behaviour of long-lived Chernobyl radionuclides in a soil–water system

The Analyst, 1992
Field and laboratory experiments have been used to study the behaviour of long-lived radionuclides in the zone affected by the Chernobyl accident. Speciation of 90Sr and 137Cs in soils and bottom sediments was determined. The principal distinction of the Chernobyl fallout was that it contained a relatively small proportion of exchangeable forms because

Recognition System of Activities in Daily Living Based on Deep Sensing of Water Usage

2021 International Conference on Information Networking (ICOIN), 2021
In recent years, the number of elderly people living alone has been increasing with the accelerated aging of society, and shortage of the labors of the elderly care sector becomes a serious problem. In order to solve this problem, the activity observation and recognition systems for the remote elderly care have been proposed.

Water in complex environments such as living systems

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2002
Abstract With the proposal by H.E. Stanley and coworkers and the late G.W. Robinson and his coworkers that liquid water exists as two rapidly exchanging microdomains of different densities, the already complex living cell has acquired new levels of complexity.
