Abstract: In drainage and sewerage systems, vertical dropshafts are commonly used to convey water flow from high to low elevations. When the underground tunnel is surcharged, the lower part of the shaft is submerged. The impact of ...

Abstract: Geysers are explosive eruptions of air-water mixture from manholes in drainage systems. When the design capacity of storm water drainage systems is exceeded during heavy rainfall, rapid inflows can lead to air-water ...

Abstract: A concentrated 10% chlorine solution (in sodium hypochlorite) with a specific gravity of 1.2 is used for the disinfection of treated primary effluent in the Stonecutters Island Sewage Treatment Works (SCISTW) in Hong Kong. ...

Abstract: In the Hong Kong Harbour Area Treatment Scheme (HATS), a concentrated 10% chlorine solution (in sodium hypochlorite with a specific gravity of 1.2) is used directly to disinfect sewage that receives a chemically enhanced ...

Abstract: Multiport diffusers are used in many environmental applications to distribute a discharge flow uniformly through a number of jet nozzles into the same or another fluid. For example, a sewage diffuser can be designed to ...
