Groundwater Cleanup in Developing Countries
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Bioremediation of Petroleum-Hydrocarbon Contaminated Groundwater under Sulfate-Reducing Conditions: Effectiveness and Mechanism Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Groundwater at many existing or former industrial areas and underground storage tank sites is contaminated by petroleum hydrocarbons. In this study, a column experiment was applied to evaluate the effectiveness and mechanisms ...
Field Investigation at a Chlorinated Ethylene Contaminated Site
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethylene (TCE) are among the most ubiquitous chlorinated contaminants or compounds found in the subsurface environment. A recent site groundwater investigation focused on the underground ...
Development of a Natural Treatment System for Stream Water Purification: Mechanisms and Environmental Impacts Evaluation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A constructed wetland type natural treatment system was built in southern Taiwan for stream water purification and natural habitat creation. The system influent (influent rate =
Development of the Risk Assessment and Management Strategies for TPH-Contaminated Sites Using TPH Fraction Methods
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Evaluation of Enhanced Reductive Dechlorination of Trichloroethylene Using Gene Analysis: Pilot-Scale Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The industrial solvent trichloroethylene (TCE) is among the most ubiquitous chlorinated compounds found in groundwater contamination. The objective of this pilot-scale study was to evaluate the effectiveness of an in situ ...
Chemical Oxidation of Chlorinated Solvents in Contaminated Groundwater: Review
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The groundwater contaminated with chlorinated solvents poses daunting challenges for environmental remediation. Conventional treatment technologies such as pump-and-treat and bioremediation are costly and may require lengthy ...
Development of Watershed Management Strategies for the Chiang-Chun River Basin, Taiwan
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Chiang-Chun River basin is the largest and the most intensively used river basin in Tainan County, Taiwan. Based on the recent water quality analysis, the Chiang-Chun River is heavily polluted. Concern about the ...
Biodegradability of 2,4-Dichlorophenol under Different Redox Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Chlorophenols are generated from a number of industrial producing processes and are extensively used as insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides. Their discharge into the environment is of great concern due to their toxicity. ...
Enhanced Bioremediation of Fuel-Oil Contaminated Soils: Laboratory Feasibility Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, microcosm experiments were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of (1) nutrients, hydrogen peroxide
