Abstract: Diffuser fouling is classified as one of three types, A, B, and C, based on the nature of the foulant. The accumulation of inorganic foulants, such as fine particles and precipitates, characterize type A fouling, and the ...

Abstract: This paper reviews the current state‐of‐understanding of biological fouling of fine bubble diffusers. Results of a survey conducted in the United Kingdom and United States which implicates biological sliming as a major ...

Abstract: The development of waste water‐induced soil clogging in subsurface wastewater infiltration systems is investigated in the field over a 70‐mo period. Domestic septic tank effluent (DSTE), graywater septic tank effluent ...

Abstract: Septic systems can present a risk to human health by releasing highly soluble nitrate–nitrogen into the groundwater. A research and demonstration study undertaken in Black River Falls, Wisconsin, evaluated several promising ...
