Air Issues on the North Slope of Alaska?An Overview of the Problems and the Solutions (
Energy resources development on the Central Alaskan arctic coastal zone has introduced large scale fuel burning equipment to the area, resulting in the emission of air pollutants. The...
The Swedish Dioxin Moratorium
Municipal waste constitutes an energy resource but also an environmental problem. In Sweden emissions of dioxines from waste-to-energy plants have triggered a major debate on environmental...
The National Incinerator Testing & Evaluation Program
Environment Canada, under the National Incinerator Testing & Evaluation Program (NITEP), is addressing emissions from municipal energy-from-waste combustion systems. The main thrust...
The Dioxin Situation in West Germany
The public discussion in Germany of the 'dioxin problem' has recently become more rational than it was three years ago. Emotions and hard facts are in a balance...
EPA to Limit Emissions of Volatile Organics
The Use of Microcomputers to Perform Airport Emission Inventories
The authors found the use of LOTUS 1-2-3, a microcomputer spreadsheet package that permitted easy calculation of emissions and easy revision of data for studying options in aircraft types,...
Trace Toxic Metals Emissions from Hazardous Waste Incinerators
A physical model is proposed in order to explain the vaporization of metals during metallic waste incineration and is based on work performed to investigate inorganic emissions from coal...
Current Status of Flue GasDesulfurization in the United States
Flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems have been in existence in the United States for only 17 years but they have made a tremendous impact in the operation of utility plants. At present,...
Acoustic Emission Monitoring of Grout Movement
This paper describes the acoustic emission (AE) method in general, and in particular the AE system which holds significant promise in this regard. Used was a multichannel AE system which...
Nonlinear Fracture Process Zone in Rock
A study of the fracture process zone was conducted to gain an understanding of the physics of crack propagation in rock. The nondestructive testing technique of acoustic emissions was...
Electric Utility Noise Emissions
Environmental regulations require that impact statements for new electric utility and industrial power plants include an evaluation of noise emissions. Variations in equipment sound power...
Method Development for Evaluating Radionuclide Emissions from Incineration of Low Level Radioactive Waste
The implementation of an incineration monitoring program for low level radioactive waste is a complex task, especially in the area of obtaining environmental permits. Emissions monitoring...
Risks from Metals Emitted by Sludge Incinerators
The types of incinerators most commonly used in the United States are the multiple hearth and fluidized bed designs. Airborne contaminants from either method of sludge incineration may...
