Attenuation of Pathogen Shock Load: Analytical Analysis of Infiltration Gallery in Riverbank Filtration during Stream Stage Rise
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)A risk assessment model was developed and combined with hydrogeological data to determine the permissible limit of fecal coliform in water during riverbank filtration (RBF). It combined an analytical solution of water flow ... -
Distribution, Sources, and Hazards of Ambient Carbonaceous Particulates in Central India
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Complex environmental and health issues are on the rise in India because of the country’s huge emissions of carbonaceous particulates. The aim of this study was to describe concentration variation, segregation, composition, ... -
Characterization and Energy Generation Potential of Municipal Solid Waste from Nonengineered Landfill Sites in Himachal Pradesh, India
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)The paper presents the characterization and methane generation potential of municipal solid waste (MSW) generated in four nonengineered landfill sites in Himachal Pradesh located in Solan, Sundernagar, Mandi, and Baddi. ... -
Fuzzy-Based Regional Water Quality Index for Surface Water Quality Assessment
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Evaluation of the water quality index is highly complex and needs competent models to assess at global and regional scales. A fuzzy-based inference system (FIS) provides an effective tool for solving this type of complex ... -
Winter Particulate Pollution over Raipur, India
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Particulate air pollution during the winter season in the urban regions of India is severe due to substantial fuel and mineral combustion in adverse climatic conditions. In this work, chemical characteristics and sources ... -
