Various empirical equations have been offered to facilitate the prediction of the concentration of pollutants in different phases in the environment. Using one such equation, Brown and Flagg (1981), the predicted separation between the...
Due to shrinking federal, state, and local utility budgets, city management structures requiring more cost effect utility operating models, and ever more stringent environmental regulations requiring technical expertise, engineers are...
Wastewater collection systems and treatment facilities are known for emitting offensive odors that cause neighboring residents to complain. One of the main odor compound contributors is hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Presently, H2S removal from...
Residential wastewater management in urban fringe and rural areas in northwest and north central Florida is commonly accomplished using on-site wastewater treatment systems (OWTSs), typically consisting of septic tank and drainfield...
There has been much research done on the reduction, or attenuation, of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), particularly within landfill cover soils, as H2S can cause many issues when exposed to the atmosphere. The objective of this research study...
Land application is one of the natural treatment processes for raw or partially treated domestic wastewater. Examples include application of septic tank effluent to soil for subsurface infiltration, slow-rate (SR) wastewater irrigation, ...
Effectiveness of cancer therapy is improved by the use of recombinant immunotoxins (RITs) that target membrane proteins unique to malignant tumor cells. Although RIT antitumor activity in vivo can always be improved with larger doses, ...
Green engineering is the newest technology implemented for sustainability in the design of buildings and most recently highways. Sustainability concepts applied to the design and construction of roadways includes long term planning, ...
The research is focused on the degradation of two endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) in zero-valent iron. The endocrine disrupting compounds bisphenol A (BPA) and 17b-estradiol (E2) are chemical compounds that have an adverse effect...
As a USEPA recommended hydrodynamic and transport model, EFDC model has been widely used in modeling estuarine and coastal hydrodynamics and transport. EFDC employs sigma coordinate transformation to deal with irregular water depth....
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have garnered recent consideration as an option to reduce organic loading, and the recalcitrance of mature landfill leachate. Hydroxyl radicals (*OH) are produced during AOPs, which are effective in...
Environment and natural resources can be polluted and consequently human beings, animals and plants can be impacted. Then, waste management plays an important role in human's life. Landfilling is one of the most common technology for...
In this study, laboratory experiments were conducted to compare the efficiency of using O3 and O3+H2O2 as precursor to anaerobic biological treatment of the treatment of landfill leachate. Both oxidation systems were proven efficient in...
The first goal of this study was determining in-situ soil's vertical saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks) from the measured steady infiltration rate, initial soil parameters, and test arrangements of the Double Ring Infiltrometer (DRI)...
Ethanol is a controversial source of alternative fuel. In the United States ethanol is produced predominantly from corn and has made headlines as a popular green energy, driven both politically and geographically. Green energy is defined...
Traditionally, research on bulk electrical conductivity is focused on the subject of soil salinity effects. Herein, bulk electrical conductivity was used to investigate the transport processes of soil. Electrical conductivity indicates...
