Curve of the Michaelis–Menten equation labelled in accordance with IUBMB recommendations. In biochemistry, Michaelis–Menten kinetics, named after Leonor Michaelis and Maud Menten, is the simplest case of enzyme kinetics, applied to enzyme-catalysed reactions of one substrate and one product.
Kinetically perfect enzymes have a specificity constant, k cat /K m, on the order of 10 8 to 10 9 M −1 s −1.The rate of the enzyme-catalysed reaction is limited by diffusion and so the enzyme 'processes' the substrate well before it encounters another molecule.
Water resources are natural resources of water that are potentially useful for humans, for example as a source of drinking water supply or irrigation water. These resources can be either freshwater from natural sources, or water produced artificially from other sources, such as from reclaimed water or desalinated water (). 97% of the water on Earth is salt water and only three percent is fresh ...
Their One Water program emphasizes application of physical, chemical, and biological principles to design innovative water quality control processes for safe and reliable community or household drinking water, sanitation, stormwater management, and resource (water, nutrient, energy) recovery systems.

There is a long and established framework for water resources management in Colombia.The Environment Ministry and up to 33 Regional Authorities (the first one was created in 1954), are in charge of water resources management and policies at the national and regional and watershed level, respectively.
Water management is the activity of planning, developing, distributing and optimum use of water resources under defined water polices and regulations. It includes: management of water treatment of drinking water, industrial water, sewage or wastewater, management of water resources, management of flood protection, management of irrigation, and management of the water table.
Water resources management is the use of structural measures - such as dams, canals or treatment plants - and nonstructural measures - such as pricing, standards or permits - to control natural and human-made freshwater resources systems - such as rivers, lakes, artificial reservoirs, wetlands and groundwater - for beneficial uses.
Water resources are a focus of this office. SEGEPLAN elaborates diagnostic information of water and formulates tools for planning the integrated management of water resources. This takes into account prior efforts with the objective of coordinating, complementing, and assuring that governmental efforts favor the proper management of water ...
