Orange County Florida Landfill Dilute Leachate Wetland Treatment and Restoration System
The Orange County Landfill began operation in 1971 as an EPA demonstration project for the purpose of defining landfill operations in high groundwater table areas. To prevent groundwater...
Variability of Hydraulic Response of Constructed Wetlands
Dye tracer studies using Rhodamine WT have been performed on two field scale subsurface flow wetland units for further improvement of secondary treated municipal effluent at Byron Bay...
Simulating THM Precursors Transport with DWRDSM
A study was conducted by the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) to demonstrate the ability of its Delta Simulation Model (DWRDSM) to simulate fate and movement of inorganic...
Operational and Structural Optimisation of Hydraulic Structures for Light Liquid Removal
The removal efficiency of light liquid separation schemes is determined by the hydraulic inflow conditions, the inflow fluid properties and the separator hydraulics. The relating set of...
Survival of Atlantic Salmon Smolts Bypassed Through Ice-Log Sluices Determined by the HI-Z Turb'N Tag
The HI-Z Turb'N Tag was used to assess injury and mortality incurred by Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) smolts bypassed through ice-log sluiceways at two stations. Both sluiceways were similar...
Ask Young Clupeids if Kaplan Turbines are Revolving Doors or Blenders
Previous estimates of low survival (18 to 38 %) of young clupeids (American shad, blueback herring, and alewife) in passage through hydro turbines have led many to conclude that turbines...
Regulation of Flow Downstream of Weirs
Reregulation weirs are one means adopted by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) to provide continuous improved minimum flow and wetted area for aquatic life downstream if hydroprojects...
Protected Streamflow and Water Uses
The development of protected-streamflow standards is essential for the most desirable and equitable use of stream waters for aquatic habitats, municipal and industrial water supply, and...
A New Type of Concrete Trapezoid Dam
A new type of 128.0 m height concrete trapezoid dam (t-d) has been built for the Wunana Town Hydroelectric Power Station (WTHPS). The paper presents its optimum section design, several...
Two Options for Disposal of Desalination Reject Water
A major problem associated with the use of desalination plants for the production of fresh water is the disposal of the reject water. This water is typically double the salinity of the...
Ballast Water Treatment Effluent Dispersion Studies
Treated tanker ballast water is discharged form Alyeska Pipeline Service Company's ballast water treatment facility through a multiport diffuser into Port Valdez, Alaska. The discharge...
Selective Withdrawal for Reducing Turbid Water in a Reservoir
This paper deals with improvemental operations of the selective withdrawal facilities as one of the comprehensive technics for shortening the turbid water stay after floods flown into...
A New In-Stream Aerator
Experiments on microporous, polymeric, hollow fiber membranes are being conducted for application to in-stream aeration. The hollow fibers are scaled on one end and connected to an oxygen...
Field Examination of a Distribution System Water Quality Model
In the aftermath of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) of 1974, numerous models have been established to assess the quality of water and simulate its deterioration in distribution systems....
Sediment and Water Quality Control Devices in Small Watersheds
The physical behavior and health of an alluvial stream depends on the extent of man's interferences in its tributary areas. In its natural setting a stream provides three main functions...
Modeling the Tides of Massachusetts and Cape Cod Bays
A time-dependent, three-dimensional numerical modeling study of the tides of Massachusetts and Cape Code Bays, motivated by construction of a new sewage treatment plant and ocean outfall...
GIS and SWMM Applications in Developing the Lake Houston Watershed Management Program
The City of Houston has undertaken the task of developing a Watershed Management Program for the 2,828 square mile lake Houston Watershed in an effort to prevent future degradation of...
Wastewater Treatment for Better Environment
Wastewaters from households, industries, and combined sewers are collected and transport to the treatment plant with the effluent commonly disposed of by dilution in rivers, lakes or estuaries....
Self-Cleaning Wet Wells: Definition and Design
Design guidelines for self-cleaning wet wells with variable speed pumps are given and the progress of research at Montana State University and ENSR Consulting and Engineering concerning...
Installing a Raw Water Line by Microtunneling
Construction began in 1991 on a new water treatment plan for the Towns of Cary and Apex, with B. Everett Jordan Lake as a water source. Installation of two 1,400 mm raw water lines approximately...
