Salinity may ruin vast tract of arable coastal land
2014-05-14 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Dhaka Tribune: Environmentalists have warned that vast stretches of coastal arable land in Bangladesh may become barren because of an alarming rise in salinitydue toa climate change-triggered rise in sea level. Researchers say none of the existing varieties of salinity-tolerant rice can stand the level of salinity that has affected some of the coastal districts. In fact, the best salinity-tolerant variety that could be developed was nowhere near the level already reached, scientists said. Bangladesh Rice...
Technology Qualification of Liqui-Cel Membrane Contactors for Deoxygenation of Low Salinity Water for Polymer Flooding
2013-11-07 01:00:00| Power Technology
Polymer flooding using low salinity water has been shown to improve oil reservoir recovery rates by altering the reservoir characteristic from an oil-wet state to a water-wet state. It has also been shown to be cost competitive with other enhanced oi

Salinity in Bangladesh coastal aquifers `alarming´
2013-10-20 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Dhaka Tribune: Salinity intrusion into the aquifers of the countrys coastal districts has reached an alarming proportion due to unplanned use of groundwater in agriculture and seawater seeping into underground due to sea-level rise caused by global warming. Weve assessed the quality and quantity data of groundwater up to 1,100 feet deep in 19 costal districts. But, weve found saline water in aquifers within just 600-700 feet deep, deputy director (Groundwater Hydrology) at Bangladesh Water Development Board...
