Effective Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity of an Infiltration-Based Stormwater Control Measure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Infiltration rates into field soils have a large variability, and a statistical value that represents the overall infiltration in a site is needed. The Green-Ampt equation was used to develop a one-dimensional, multisoil ...
What Do Students Need in Hydraulic Design Projects?
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: As engineering curriculums strive to meet Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology 2000 design criteria as well as the demands of prospective employers, educators must often develop and incorporate design projects ...
Enhanced Sand Filtration for Storm Water Phosphorus Removal
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Batch studies with an initial phosphorus concentration typical of storm water were conducted at the University of Minnesota on C 33 sand, calcareous sand, limestone, three blast oxygen furnace (BOF) by-products, aluminum ...
In-Stream Hollow-Fiber Membrane Aeration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Throughout both urban and rural areas across the United States, rivers and streams periodically suffer from low dissolved oxygen concentrations. Current aeration technologies are often expensive or ineffective. Aeration ...
Cost and Pollutant Removal of Storm-Water Treatment Practices
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Six storm-water best management practices (BMPs) for treating urban rainwater runoff were evaluated for cost and effectiveness in removing suspended sediments and total phosphorus. Construction and annual operating and ...
Bubbleless Fiber Aerator for Surface Waters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The concept of bubbleless aeration with microporous hollow fiber membranes is tested in a system that does not require external energy input, other than pressurizing oxygen, and is designed to add oxygen to surface waters. ...
