Laboratory Investigation of Ammonium and Nitrate Removal in Vertical-Flow Regimes in Planted and Unplanted Wetland Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Vertical-flow constructed wetlands were investigated for ammonium and nitrate removal from synthetic wastewater in bench-scale wetland columns. Total ammonia and nitrate were measured as wastewater and fed through planted ...
Material Flow Analysis Applied to Household Solid Waste and Marine Litter on a Small Island Developing State
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Small island developing states (SIDS) have limited access to imported goods, and their associated patterns of consumption and waste generation are affected by space limitations. They are also impacted by the global presence ...
Strategies to Improve Performance of Community-Managed Water Systems with System Dynamics Modeling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Community management is a common approach to securing access to clean water for rural residents. Its failure to sustain water services over acceptable lifetimes has been well-documented, adversely impacting human health ...
Field Measurements and Modeling of Two-Stage Biofilter that Treats Odorous Sulfur Air Emissions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Because the presence of hydrogen sulfide
Framework to Determine the Optimal Spatial Location and Number of Municipal Solid Waste Bins in a Developing World Urban Neighborhood
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Determining the optimal location and quantity of waste bins for the collection of municipal solid wastes is challenging because it influences service coverage and public satisfaction, and is often influenced by economic ...
Energy Recovery and Nitrogen Management from Struvite Precipitation Effluent via Microbial Fuel Cells
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Engineered struvite precipitation (ESP) is now a common procedure to recover phosphorus and nitrogen from waste streams such as wastewater-treatment-plant sidestreams, urine, landfill leachate, and agricultural waste. ...
A Pilot-Scale Hybrid Adsorption–Biological Treatment System for Nitrogen Removal in Onsite Wastewater Treatment
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Onsite wastewater treatment systems (OWTS) are significant nonpoint sources of nutrients to surface and groundwater worldwide. Advanced OWTS are challenged by highly transient nutrient loads, long idle periods (e.g., during ...
