Water Quality Effects of Excavation and Diversion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Water quality data collected from Yellow Creek in northeast Mississippi before and during construction of the Divide Cut of the Tennessee‐Tombigbee Waterway provide information regarding the water quality effects of stream ...
Experimental Road Dust Measurement Device
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most unpaved road dust measuring devices have employed one or more of the air sampling techniques used by atmospheric scientists, namely, sedimentation, filtration, and photometric techniques. The dust measurement ...
Mixing in Overland Flow during Rainfall
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A method is presented for estimating vertical mixing coefficients in overland flow with rainfall using laboratory data and using a mathematical model of shear‐flow convection, rainfall dilution, and vertical mixing. The ...
Closure to “Oxygen Sag Models for Multiorder Biochemical Oxygen Demand Reactions” by Donald Dean Adrian, Emerald M. Roider, and Thomas G. Sanders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Oxygen Sag Models for Multiorder Biochemical Oxygen Demand Reactions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The empirical biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) equation is expressed as a multiorder reaction equation of order
Unpaved Road Dust Control in the Piceance Creek Basin in Rio Blanco County, Colorado
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Road dust from unpaved roads (dirt roads) is a major source of airborne particulates; the loss of those fines accelerates the deterioration of roads. As a result, road dust emissions are a major concern of the users and ...
Small Multiorder BOD Reactions in Oxygen Sag Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Wastewaters containing sugars are easily and rapidly biodegraded, which results in their exerting a short period of intense demand for dissolved oxygen (DO). Their carbonaceous biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) is described ...
Relative Effectiveness of Road Dust Suppressants
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The relative effectiveness of commercially available road dust suppressants in abating fugitive dust emission and loss of fines from unpaved road surfaces was assessed in a field-based research project. The dust suppressants ...
