Discussion of “Permeability Behavior of a Water Treatment Sludge” by M. C. Wang and W. Tseng
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Photodechlorination of Aroclor 1254 in a Pilot-Scale Flow through Photoreactor
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A novel pilot-scale flow through photoreactor has been designed with the intent to apply it in the field. The photoreactor uses a new plastic coil, instead of the conventional quartz tube. The photoreactor consists of six ...
Extraction of PCBs from Transformer Oil and Its Dechlorination Using Visible Light
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An investigation into an extraction of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from transformer oil (TO) using different solvents and its dechlorination with visible light was conducted. The extraction experiments showed that ...
LED-Based Photocatalytic Treatment of Pesticides and Chlorophenols
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), a novel light source, is reported for the photocatalytic degradation of four known pesticides [2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (MCPA), ...
Effect of Cocontaminants on the Remediation of PCB-Impacted Soils by Hydrogen Peroxide
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effects of cocontaminants, such as extractable organics and transformer oil (TO) on the remediation of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) impacted soils by hydrogen peroxide
Application of Fuzzy Logic to Estimate Flow of Methane for Energy Generation at a Sanitary Landfill
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes the use of a multicriteria assessment technique to evaluate the methane flow during gas extraction from a sanitary landfill. A number of parameters determine the gas generation and the feasibility for ...
Pilot-Scale Treatment of Neutral Pharmaceuticals in Municipal Wastewater Using Reverse Osmosis and Ozonation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) reaching surface waters through municipal wastewater are a concern, as existing treatment processes poorly remove them. While significant lab-scale evaluations have been performed ...
Degradation of Bisphenol S Using O3 and/or H2O2 with UV in a Flow-Through Reactor
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Effect of Heat Treatment on Strength of Clays
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The main objective of this investigation was to understand the strength development of clays below fusion or vitrification temperatures of 900°C. The other objective was to establish threshold temperatures to produce a ...
Laboratory and Field Investigation of Sulfolane Removal from Water Using Activated Carbon
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Batch and fixed-bed adsorption experiments were conducted to evaluate the feasibility of using activated carbon to remove sulfolane from aqueous media. Nine commercially available activated carbons with different particle ...
