Enhancing Remediation of LNAPL Recovery through a Response-Surface-Based Optimization Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cost-efficient design for remediation of light nonaqueous phase liquids (LNAPL) from subsurface has become an essential task for site managers in North America. Although many related studies were conducted, there was still ...
Development of a Factorial Hypothetical Extraction Model for Analyzing Socioeconomic Environmental Effects of Carbon Emission Intensity Reduction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: China has pledged to peak its carbon emissions before 2030 and achieve the net-zero ambition in the 2060s. Reducing the national carbon emission intensity can help achieve these ambitions effectively. To explore the tradeoff ...
Fuzzy Inexact Mixed-Integer Semiinfinite Programming for Municipal Solid Waste Management Planning
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Based on the concept of functional intervals, fuzzy inexact mixed-integer semiinfinite programming (FIMISIP) method is developed for municipal solid waste management planning. The method allows the uncertainties in parameters ...
Inexact Optimization Model for Supporting Waste-Load Allocation in the Xiangxi River Basin of the Three Gorges Reservoir Region, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, a large-scale inexact two-stage waste-load allocation (ITS-WLA) model is developed to identify desired decision alternatives for supporting economic development and water quality management. In this model, ...
Treatment of Drilling Wastewater by Combined Coagulation-Ultraviolet/Fenton-Pressurized Biological Processes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An integrated technique containing coagulation, ultraviolet/Fenton oxidation, and pressurized biological processes was provided for the treatment of wastewater generated from drilling operation where sulfonated muds were ...
Factorial Two-Stage Irrigation System Optimization Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study proposes a factorial two-stage irrigation system optimization model (FTIM) for supporting agricultural irrigation water-resource management under uncertainty. The FTIM incorporates fractional factorial design, ...
Factorial Two-Stage Irrigation System Optimization Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study proposes a factorial two-stage irrigation system optimization model (FTIM) for supporting agricultural irrigation water-resource management under uncertainty. The FTIM incorporates fractional factorial design, ...
Energy and Environmental Systems Planning with Recourse: Inexact Stochastic Programming Model Containing Fuzzy Boundary Intervals in Objectives and Constraints
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, a feasibility-analysis-based inexact fuzzy multistage model (FA-IFMSM) was developed for supporting the planning of energy and environmental systems under multiform uncertainties. In FA-IFMSM, methods of ...
Inexact Fuzzy Full-Infinite Mixed-Integer Programming Method for an Integrated Air and Waste Management System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Inexact fuzzy full-infinite mixed-integer programming (IFFMIP) was proposed as an extension of inexact full-infinite programming. It can deal with the uncertainties that exist in most of the parameters as intervals, economic ...
Development of a Stepwise-Clustered Hydrological Inference Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Flow prediction is one of the most important issues in modern hydrology. In this study, a statistical tool, stepwise-clustered hydrological inference (SCHI) model, was developed for daily streamflow forecasting. The SCHI ...
