Water Research Ideas

Project Idea : Selection of Optimal Quality Water for Specific Uses by ANN-MCDM based Auto-Selector Requirement : Knowledge of photo-sensors,Artifiicial Neural Network,Multi-Criteria Decision Making. Justification of the Study : The change in the climate pattern,pollution concentration in the air and water,ever growing demand and lastly the uncontrolled extraction of natural resources has induced a situation where the amount of water demanded,available and usable has noticeable level of difference.That is why day by day water is becoming scarce and consumers has to ensure proper measures for optimal utilization of the resource.An automatic selector which can seperate water based on its quality specific uses may help to control misuse of the resource. Brief Methodology : Relationship between water quality and its uses must be determined first.The MCDM techniques can be devised to decide about the quality of water for specific use.After correlation is determined some sensors ...

Project Idea : Short Term Rainfall forecasting by ANN-MCDM Approach Requirement : Various data of climatic parameters, landuse pattern of the region,cloud type and density for 1 to 5 days before the day of forecast. Justification of the Study : Rainfall can impact the output of many industrial and agricultural processes.Even the energy ouput from the power sector is affected by the climatic parameter. Short term rainfall forecasting is an important concept as it can help the planners of this industry to adjust their input so that the required output will remain unaffected. Brief Methodology : A widescale expert and local survey followed by literature review has to be conducted to identify the parameters which mostly impact the rainfall probability.After the most important parameters are determined MCDM methods like Analytical Hierarchy Process or Fuzzy Decision Making can be applied to determine the relative weightage of importance of the selected parameters.A weight functi...

Project Idea : Impact of Climate Change on Virtual and Green Water Availability in Arid Regions Requirement : Hydro-metereological, Future Climate and Water Use Data, Knowledge about Predictive Hydrologic Models. Justification of the Study : Virtual Water is the amount of water used in industries as raw material and Green Water is the volume of water utilized in agriculture.The availability of both of them is important for socio-economic development of any region.As arid regions are characterized by water scarcity,such places will be more vulnerable to climate change impacts.As this two type of water use is important fror GDP of any region maintaining a minimum water volume for the said purposes will be important. Brief Methodology : After collecting the relevant data, a model can be prepared to predict the availability of water.Then based on the demand from the agriculture and industrial sector the availability of Virtual and Green Water under climate change can be estimated.Models l...

Project Idea : Impact of Climate Change on Groundwater Level in Religious Places Requirement : Hydro-metereological, Future Climate and groundwater level Data, Knowledge about Predictive Groundwater Models. Justification of the Study : A significant characteristic of religious place is uncontrolled extraction of groundwater. During climate change when rainfall and temperature will either increase or decrease,the extraction of groundwater can induce implication on the level of the same. As a result the very extraction of groundwater will be difficult. Brief Methodology : After collecting the relevant data, a model can be prepared to predict the level of groundwater of the religious place. Models like visual groundwater or an entirely new model can be developed by various metaheuristic methods. Thanks, This same idea can be found from www.baipatra.ws
