Water quality refers to the chemical, physical, biological, and radiological characteristics of water. It is a measure of how suitable water is for a particular purpose, such as drinking, swimming, irrigation, and industrial processes. Water quality is influenced by various factors, including the presence of pollutants, nutrients, and microorganisms, which can arise from natural sources or human activities. Common parameters used to assess water quality include pH, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, temperature, contaminants (such as heavy metals and bacteria), and nutrient levels (like nitrates and phosphates). Maintaining high water quality is essential for environmental health, human consumption, and the protection of aquatic life. Monitoring and managing water quality are critical for ensuring safe and sustainable water resources.
Solid-state batteries have emerged as the potential game-changers in the realm of water quality management. These remarkable power sources, equipped with solid electrolytes instead of the traditional liquid electrolytes, offer…
