Abstract: The thermal characteristics of damp, hydrophobic insulating material used primarily in underwater dry suit applications were investigated. Testing was performed in a Rapid-K Thermal Conductivity ...

Abstract: There are a growing number of microcystin-degrading organisms that have been isolated; however, their ability to degrade these toxins in an immobilized state within water treatment plant media filters is yet to be explored ...

Abstract: Prior to the imposition of effective source‐control measures in 1970, large quantities of DDT were discharged to the Los Angeles County municipal sewer system and, subsequently, to the Pacific Ocean. A fraction of this ...

Abstract: The increasing use of spray ice in arctic offshore exploration and construction initiated a study that includes a series of triaxial compression tests on saline, laboratory‐made spray ice. Factors affecting spray‐ice ...

Abstract: Landfill bioreactors have many advantages relative to conventional dry-tomb sanitary landfills. Leachate augmentation with enzymes (prior to its recirculation) to enhance waste degradation and gas production in landfill ...

Abstract: Development in sensitive watersheds continues to pose environmental problems for receiving waters. One contributor to this long-term pollution is building and other construction materials. However, the long-term effect of ...
