Abstract: In response to industrial chemical spills that potentially contaminate drinking water and distribution systems, this study investigated sorption and desorption of odorous crude [(4-methylcyclohexyl)methanol] (MCHM) into ...

Abstract: A model was developed and validated for predicting solubility and diffusion coefficients for contaminants permeating polyethylene (PE) materials used for water pipes and geomembranes. Model development was based on diffusivity ...

Abstract: A method was developed to coat anthracite and sand filter media with synthetic manganese oxides. The two-stage method used a stirred tank reactor followed by a recirculating flow fixed-bed reactor. Treated anthracite ...

Abstract: The objectives of this work were to identify differences between the composition, bulk properties, contaminant diffusivity and solubility for new high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe and crosslinked polyethylene (PEX) ...

Abstract: The aim of this work was to determine if the aging of polyethylene (HDPE, PEX-A and PEX-B) water pipes by exposure to chlorinated water altered polar and nonpolar contaminant diffusivity and solubility by analyzing new, ...

Abstract: A process model for soluble Mn

Abstract: A two-phase Monte Carlo simulation (TPMCS) uncertainty analysis framework is used to analyze epistemic and aleatory uncertainty associated with simulated exceedances of an in-stream fecal coliform (FC) water quality criterion ...
