I believe that it is better to tell the truth than a lie. I believe it is better to be free than to be a slave. And I believe it is better to know than to be ignorant.

Tying in with the UAE’s ambition to become a knowledge-based economy with a strong focus on technology, R&D and innovation, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, announced the launch of a USD 1 million global award to find sustainable solutions to water scarcity across the world.

The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Water Award aims to support this goal, encouraging leading corporations, research centres, institutions and innovators from across the world to compete to find sustainable and innovative solar-energy solutions to the problem of water scarcity.

“We invite all research institutions around the world to participate in a competition of USD 1 million to be awarded to people who can find sustainable, cheap and innovative solutions."

H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum
Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE Ruler of Dubai

The challenge is set, with companies, research institutes and young innovators invited to compete with their innovative solar-powered solutions.

NAI GaJ DAM

The preliminary works of Hub Dam, built across the River Hub, were commenced in September, 1963 and completed in June, 1981. The project was meant to construct a storage reservoir for regulating the flows of Hub River for the purpose of municipal, industrial water supply and irrigation releases to Karachi in Sindh and Lasbela District in Balochistan. The Hub Dam is an inter-provincial Project as the beneficiaries are located in the two Provinces Sindh and Balochistan. The capital cost of the project is Rs. 1191.806 million (excluding interest charges).
The total live storage of the reservoir 656,000 AF (Acre ft.) is about 2 times planned for annual withdrawal of 216,406 AF, considering Reservoir Losses (Evaporation / Seepage, 35% on average). Normally, the impounding of reservoir takes place during monsoon season. The Project is designed to supply 100 MGD (Million gallon per day) of water to Karachi (Sindh) for municipal and industrial purposes, and 15 MGD to the Balochistan industries besides irrigation of 21,000 Acres (CCA),i.e. 44 MGD, in Balochistan and 1000 acres i.e. 2 MGD in Sindh. Thus, the reservoir-release of 216,406 AF is shared by Sindh 63.3% and by Balochistan 36.7%. This supply is ensured for a period of 75 years.

The Hub Dam Canal System consists of Main Canal, Karachi Water Supply Canal, Lasbela Canal, and a Bund Murad Minor. The Main Canal, having Design Discharge Capacity of 370 cfs, off-takes from Hub Dam and bifurcates into two branches after flowing about 5.2 Miles (8.32 Km) at Head Regulator. At Head Regulator, the water supplies to Sindh and Balochistan are controlled by manually operated vertical gates. Whereas, supply to Bund Murad Minor is controlled through Lasbela Canal about one Km from Head Regulator.
At Head Regulator one branch is known as Karachi Water Supply Canal with Design Discharge Capacity of 210 cfs. This is a very sensitive canal as it supplies 20% to 25 % of the Municipal and Industrial waters to Karachi. It is a 14 Miles (22.4 Km) long open channel, which terminates at Karachi Water & Sewerage Board (KW&SB) Pumping Station near Manghopir, Karachi. It is lined with concrete tiles and crosses a number of natural drainage channels that necessitated construction of aqueducts and drainage crossings, beside a road bridge and 3 village road bridges. There are also two fall structures at this canal. The un-interrupted water is supplied through this canal at allocated rate of 100 MGD (Million gallons per day).
The second branch is called Lasbela Canal (21 Miles or 33.6 Km long) with a Design Discharge Capacity of 160 cfs supplies water for irrigation of 21,000 Acres of land and 15 MGD water for industries in Lasbela District, Balochistan. Hence a total of 59 MGD water is supplied for Municipal, Industrial, and Irrigation purposes to Lasbela District as per their allocation. The Lasbela Canal is lined canal and crosses a number of drainage channels necessitated constructions of aqueducts, siphons and drainage crossings. The total number of structures on this canal is 58. This distribution system of Lasbela Branch comprises 8 minors for irrigation purposes besides outlets for industrial water supply.
The Bund Murad Minor (handed over to Government of Sindh on 01.01.86) also off-takes from Lasbela Canal to supply irrigation water on replacement basis, to 1000 Acres of those agricultural farms which were under existence prior to the construction of Hub Dam Project.

Accurate sub-nano-surface profiler with non-contact measurement

Nikon’s proprietary scanning-type optical interference measurement technology achieves 1 picometer (pm) height resolution. Nikon offers a variety of optical microscopes as measurement systems to suit a wide range of measurement applications.

Key benefits

Superior measurement performance
Realizes 0.1 nm-level measurements of ultra-smooth surfaces with neither averaging nor filtering process.
Enables measurements with the same height resolution in a wide range of magnifications.
Enables measurement of both smooth and rough surfaces without changing measurement mode or optical filters.
Captures both an all-in-focus image and a surface height image.
Wide range of observation methods

The system can be used as an optical microscope. Brightfield, polarizing, DIC and fluorescence observations are all possible.
