Abstract: The impact of frictional forces on the overall forces when drilling with a PDC bit has previously been implied by models and by single cutter and bit tests. This report describes new experiments ...

Abstract: A procedure is presented for design of detention basins for industrial sites. The procedure involves simulating the operation of the detention basin for the entire period of rainfall record in order to determine the storm ...

Abstract: Information about the loss and mobility of anthropogenic chemicals in soils over long periods of time—years to decades—was evaluated, with the purpose of providing a perspective on the extent to which such chemicals remain ...

Abstract: Gaseous emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semi-VOCs (SVOCs) from slurry and solid phase bioremediation processes were evaluated. The specific processes considered were those used for the bioremediation of ...

Abstract: The diffusive release of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from sediments to water under low-flow conditions was measured for surficial sediments with different PCB concentrations collected from the Grasse River near Massena, ...

Abstract: This study evaluated the partitioning of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) during long-term, passive, land biotreatment of PCB-impacted industrial lagoon sediments. Over six years under field conditions, two land treatment ...
