Hemodialysis (HD) units require large quantities of water. To reduce water consumption without compromising the adequacy and safety of dialysis, we studied a novel HD prescription with high temperature and low flow dialysate.
Digestate is a widely-used liquid alternative to mineral fertiliser, but nutrients readily leech from it, limiting its application. Here, the authors use a porous silicon material to enhance digestate, improving nutrient retention and crop yields.

This paper seeks to contribute to pipeline leakage detection research through collecting and simulating leakage signals under different pressure strengths by combining experiments with numerical simulation. The findings point towards better detection in a real noise environment. Such research is vital in the context of increasing worldwide demand for water and insufficient water supply caused by pipeline leakage.
The solvents used during the production of heparin cause air and water pollution. One of the steps to achieve sustainable kidney care is to find a green alternative to heparin.
This chapter aligns with SDGs 3 and 6 by examining the relative capacity and capability of developing nations to adapt to hydrological variability arising from climate change and to study the challenges faced by developing economies to mitigate the impact of climate change on water resources.
This chapter aligns with SDGs 3 and 6 by examining how changes in precipitation, land use, EWEs, and necessary pollution control will force changes in how we farm.
Augmentation approaches warrant further consideration as part of water agencies' regional water supply portfolios. Although the ocean water augmentation approaches discussed in this paper are based on a case study in California, the approach can be applied to similar scenarios around the world.
This chapter aligns with UN SDG Goals 6 and 12 by improving waste treatment and resource efficiency in the oil and gas sector.
This chapter aligns with UN SDG Goals 3 and 14 by addressing the impact of crude oil spills on marine ecosystems and exploring sustainable solutions for mitigating pollution.
