Nutrient Loads to Delaware's Inland Bays Estuary
A management plan has been developed for the Inland Bays which is a major coastal estuary. Agriculture is the largest contributor of nitrogen and phosphorus to the Inland Bays. Best management...
Phosphorus Transport from Delaware's Rural Watershed
Phosphorus loads were estimated for 62 watersheds. Major land uses in the watersheds were cropland and forestland. Annual phosphorus loads varied from 0.42 to 1.19 kg/ha. Watersheds with...
Nutrified Sludge
A new biological treatment process, Nutrification, enables a wastewater treatment plant to remove phosphorus from influent water at an operating and maintenance cost 35% less than that...
Hypolimnetic Aeration in Three Swiss Lakes
Eutrophication is quite common in low altitude Swiss lakes. Government agencies have set up phosphorus and oxygen limits for streams and lakes. Aeration equipment has been in use for up...
Rainfall Simulation Studies of Nutrient Export from Watersheds in Arizona and New Mexico
Data from rainfall simulation experiments conducted in Arizona and New Mexico were used to identify relationships between total suspended sediment (TSS) concentrations (kg/ha/mm of runoff)...

Testing of a 5-Stage Modified Bardenpho? WWTP
The Eastern Service Area Wastewater Treatment Facility (ESA WWTF) is a 13.5-mgd advanced wastewater treatment facility employing biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal processes located...
Biological Phosphorus Removal Using a Fixed and Suspended Growth Combination: A First Year Appraisal
As an alternative to the activated sludge process for biological phosphorus removal, this paper discusses an alternative which avoids high costs of air supply and large suspended growth...
Nonpoint Source Loads and Phosphorus Budget for Lake LBJ
Nonpoint source loadings from stormwater runoff are a major contributor of pollutant loadings in many locations. A phosphorus budget is developed for Lake Lyndon B. Johnson (LBJ). Lake...
Prediction of Overland Phosphorus Transport Using a Phosphorus Enrichment Ratio
The Guelph model to evaluate the effects of Agricultural Management Systems on Erosion, Sedimentation, and Phosphorus yield (GAMESP) of Rousseau et al. was used to calibrate the phosphorus...
Extent of Water Quality Effects of Dams?A National Viewpoint
An overview of phosphorus impacts on impoundments, a subset of the contents of the Dam Water Quality Report is presented. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is the lead investigator...
Out of the Mainstream
By treating only part of the wastewater stream, a biological/chemical phosphorus removal system also reduces chemical costs and sludge production. The system consists of two 60 ft dia...
Multiple Treatment System for Phosphorus Removal
Detention ponds, wetlands, and infiltration basins have each been shown to reduce constituent loads carried by urban stormwater, including phosphorus. Design recommendations are presented...
