Price Level Stabilization Experiments Using the Dynamic Phillips Curve Concept
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper deals with the price-level stabilization issue from a monetarist point of view. Government fiscal action is assumed to be ineffective without corresponding monetary actions. The ...
Column Study Simulating In Situ Bioremediation of Perchlorate Using Acetate as an Organic Substrate
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Perchlorate, which is highly soluble and is persistent in the environment, is being identified increasingly as a groundwater contaminant. Because perchlorate is biodegradable, a column study was conducted investigating the ...
Numerical Simulation of Depleted Uranium Transport in a Desert Environment Using a Distributed Parameter Watershed Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper focuses on the distribution and movement of solid depleted uranium (DU) in a desert environment. Given the sparse nature of rainfall runoff and the flashiness of the rainfall runoff in this environment, limited ...
Evaluation of Chemical Treatments for a Mixed Contaminant Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Treatability tests were conducted on soil from the reservoir No. 2 burning ground at the former Plum Brook Ordnance Works in Sandusky, Ohio. This soil is contaminated with explosives 2,4,6-trinitrotolune (TNT) and ...
Development of a Treatment Process for Electrodialysis Reversal Concentrate with Intermediate Softening and Secondary Reverse Osmosis to Approach 98-Percent Water Recovery
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The United States Army is constructing a new water-treatment facility for Fort Irwin/National Training Center in the Mojave Desert region of southern California to address existing regulatory requirements and to account ...
Capture of Airborne Particulate Using Surface Applied Emulsions: Potential for Postdetonation Dirty Bomb Cleanup
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recent research has proposed the use of asphalt and tall-oil-pitch emulsions for stabilizing radioactive contamination deposited on surfaces in urban areas. The objective of this project was to investigate whether surface ...
Fabrication, Characterization, and Testing of Graphene Oxide and Hydrophilic Polymer Graphene Oxide Composite Membranes in a Dead-End Flow System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Graphene oxide (GO) has emerged as a promising material for next-generation water treatment membranes. In this study, three types of GO membranes were produced and tested. Both GO and graphene oxide plus polyvinyl alcohol ...
