Monitoring-Polluted-Highway-Runoff

Polluted water from motorways and highways is a significant environmental concern, contributing to the degradation of aquatic ecosystems and posing risks to human health. When vehicles travel on these roads, they deposit various pollutants such as oil, heavy metals, and tyre particles. Rainwater washes these contaminants into nearby waterways, resulting in polluted runoff. This runoff can then lead to the deterioration of water quality, harm aquatic life, and disrupt natural habitats. CLAMP-ON ULTRASONIC FLOW MEASUREMENT– AN INNOVATIVE SOLUTION One innovative solution to monitor and manage this runoff is clamp-on ultrasonic…
