Aluminum Reactions and Problems in Municipal Solid Waste Landfills
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)Aluminum enters municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills from untreated raw curbside trash (MSW), industrial waste, and aluminum production wastes variously called dross, baghouse fines, salt cake, and other designations. ... -
Experimental Study on Color Removal from Textile Industry Wastewater Using the Rotating Biological Contactor
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)Textile industry wastewater treatment is a cause for concern due to its intense color and high COD, which makes it difficult to treat it by conventional treatment options. Also, many of the dyes used in the industry fall ... -
Knowledge and Data Integration for Modeling of Problems of Risk due to Natural and Man-Made Hazards
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)It is necessary to develop continually efficient methodologies and techniques for moderating risks to be within acceptable limits. After a brief background about risk analysis, a comprehensive view is presented about the ... -
Textile Dye Removal in Single-Phase and Two-Phase Anaerobic Biotreatment Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)This research compares performances of an anaerobic two-phase reactor system and a conventional single-phase reactor system in treatment of a synthetic dye wastewater. The two-phase reactor setup used four anaerobic reactors ... -
Treatment of Mixture of Sewage and Partially Treated Swine Wastewater by a Combination of UASB and Constructed Wetlands
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)A system with a combination of upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor and constructed wetlands (CWs) has not yet been applied to river water polluted by both sewage and swine wastewater. In this study, a pilot ... -
Effect of Diffuser Design on Thermal Comfort and Ventilation Efficiency
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)Social progress and lifestyle change cause more people living in Taiwan to spend 90% of the daytime indoors. The indoor environment may affect human health and productivity. Results of previous researches reveal that ... -
Chromium (III) Immobilization and Its Influence on C3 S Hydration
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)The hydration characteristics of -
Effect of Cocontaminants on the Remediation of PCB-Impacted Soils by Hydrogen Peroxide
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)The effects of cocontaminants, such as extractable organics and transformer oil (TO) on the remediation of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) impacted soils by hydrogen peroxide -
Transport Characteristics in a 3D Groundwater Circulation Flow Field by Experimental and Numerical Investigations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)The groundwater circulation well (GCW) is one of the important in situ techniques used for the remediation of volatile organic contaminants (VOCs) in groundwater. The hydraulic flow field of the GCW permits physical and ... -
Effects of Design Mix and Porosity of Waste-Derived Paste as Landfill Daily Covers on Lead Retardation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)An innovative waste-derived paste of waste tire chips and paper sludge was proposed for daily cover applications in municipal solid waste landfills. In this study, retardation and transport behaviors of lead (Pb) by the ... -

Effectiveness of Moisture and Fixatives in Controlling Mobility of Contaminated Soil Particles by Wind Forces
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)Wind tunnel experiments were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of two commercially available fixatives in controlling the mobility of soil particles on soil mounds when exposed to wind forces. The fixatives tested ... -
Tire-Derived Steel for Hydrogen Sulfide Removal in Landfill Cover
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)The use of tire-derived steel, a by-product of tire recycling, for removal of -
Prediction of Long-Term Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Settlement Using Constitutive Model
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)This paper proposes a generalized constitutive model for municipal solid waste, based on the framework derived from critical state concepts and incorporating the effects of mechanical creep and time-dependent biodegradation, ... -
