Fuzzy logic water quality index [FWQI] model in determining the water quality status of river in Penang Island / Nurul Izzati Husna Wahab

The determination of water quality status of a river or any other water sources is highly undetermined. Thus, it is essential to have a good model to determine the status of water quality. The conventional water quality used by Development of Environment (DOE) has some limitations, by which many res...
