A Natural Approach
Before the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan began, the Florida legislature established the Everglades Construction Project (ECP), a $708-million, 10-year program now being implemented...

Feasibility of Modeling Phosphorus Dynamics in Stormwater Wetlands
This research, underway at the University of Guelphs School of Engineering, studies the feasibility of modeling phosphorus assimilative capacity by stormwater wetlands in cold climates....

Constructed Wetlands for Metals Removal
Constructed wetlands have the potential to trap and remove metals contained in wastewater. Long term removal is expected to occur by accumulation and burial in the plant detritus in a...

Restoring the Everglades
Are constructed wetlands an effective management strategy for restoring and protecting the Everglades from phosphorus over-enrichment caused by agricultural stormwater runoff? The $13.85...

Non-Point Source Pollution Reduction
The paper reports on the results of a study to determine the effectiveness of the best management practices (BMPs) for use in the Tampa Bay Watershed. The study aims to determine the efficiency,...

Dealing with TMDLs in the Dairy-McKay HUA
The maximum phosphorus concentration for the TMDL in the Tualatin River is set by Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) at 0.07 mg/1, Dairy-McKay Creek is 0.045 mg/1 Identification of potential...

Development of the Lake Okeechobee Watershed Phosphorus Transport Model
The Lake Okeechobee watershed phosphorus model was developed to route flows and phosphorus loadings associated with point and nonpoint sources through a watershed transport system, and...

Combined Nitrogen and Phosphorus Removal in a Cyclic Activated Sludge System Without Anoxic Mixing Sequences
A simplified methodology for combined phosphorus and nitrogen removal through reactor configuration, cyclic sequencing and the control of aeration intensity in variable volume activated...

Effects of Temperature and Mean Cell Residence Time on Enhanced Biological Phosphorus Removal
The effects of temperature and mean cell residence time (MCRT) on biological phosphorus and nitrogen removal were investigated by operating pilot-scale continuous-flow activated sludge...

The Effect of Operational Parameters on the Acid-phase Anaerobic Fermentation in the Biological Phosphorus Removal Process
A series of laboratory-scale, continuous flow experiments has been employed to study the effects of selected HRTs and SRTs on the acid-phase fermentation of primary sludge. The VFA production...

Protecting a Sensitive Ecosystem Through Advanced Treatment at the Reno-Sparks Wastewater Treatment Facility
The requirements for high degrees of nutrient removal at the Reno-Sparks Wastewater Treatment Facility required employment of several cost-effective, innovative treatment process applications....

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...
