| description abstract | This paper describes the performance of six lateral flow sand filters (LFSFs) for their treatment of septic tank effluent in Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada. This report presents LFSF performance data collected during the first year of monitoring (Sept. 2004–Sept. 2005). The objectives of this initial study were to: (i) Evaluate the performance of LFSFs in field conditions and determine the influence of temperature and external hydrologic processes on treatment processes; (ii) evaluate the effects of slope and sand characteristics on LFSF performance; and (iii) characterize the hydraulic operation of LFSF systems in field conditions. Six LFSFs were constructed according to the Nova Scotia Department of Environment and Labour’s (NSDEL) design guidelines. Fine | |
