Cyclic loading tests on sandstone and limestone shale aggregates used in unbound forest roads.
(Construction and Building Materials, 2009-06-01)
This study examined the performance of two aggregates subjected to cyclic loading in a large-scale test rig. The two aggregates examined were: (i) a sandstone from Co. Cork, Ireland and (ii) a limestone shale from Co. ...
Nitrification in a vertically moving biofilm system.
(Journal of Environmental Management, 2006-06-01)
A laboratory continuous feed biofilm reactor, comprising a bulk fluid reactor, a biofilm plastic module, a feed tank, pneumatic devices and controls, was operated for a total period of 257 days, including seeding time, to ...
A novel hybrid filter for the treatment of septic tank effluent
(ASCE, 2006)
Intermittent sand filtration is a common and effective method for treating septic tank effluent. However, if the loading rate is too high, clogging and ponding of the sand filter surface layer can occur due to the accumulation ...
Cyclic loading tests on sandstone and limestone shale aggregates used in unbound forest roads
(Elsevier, 2009)
This study examined the performance of two aggregates subjected to cyclic loading in a large-scale test rig. The two aggregates examined were: (i) a sandstone from Co. Cork, Ireland and (ii) a limestone shale from Co. ...
Nitrification in a vertically moving biofilm system
(Elsevier, 2006-03)
A laboratory continuous feed biofilm reactor, comprising a bulk fluid reactor, a biofilm plastic module, a feed tank, and pneumatic devices and controls, was operated for a total period of 257 days, including seeding time, ...
The efficiency of a sequencing batch reactor (SBBR) in organic carbon and phosphorus removal
(Taylor & Francis, 2005)
A laboratory sequencing batch biofilm reactor (SBBR), operated for a period of 158 days, was used to treat domestic-strength synthetic effluent. The biofilm. reactor comprised a bulk fluid reactor, a biofilm plastic module, ...

Intermittent sand filtration is a common and effective method for treating septic tank effluent. However, if the loading rate is too high, clogging and ponding of the sand filter surface layer can occur due to the accumulation ...
Treatment of dairy wastewater using constructed wetlands and intermittent sand filters
(Bioresource Technology, 2007-06-01)
In Ireland, the most common method of disposal of dairy parlour washings is by land spreading. This treatment method has numerous problems, namely high labour requirements and the potential for eutrophication of surface ...
Denitrification of a nitrate-rich wastewater using various wood-based media materials
(2006)
This laboratory study examined the use of various wood materials as a carbon source in horizontal flow filters to denitrify nitrate-nitrogen (NO3-N) from a synthetic wastewater. The filter materials were: sawdust ( Pinus ...
Performance of a stratified sand filter in removal of chemical oxygen demand, total suspended solids and ammonia nitrogen from high-strength wastewaters.
(Journal of Environmental Management, 2007-06-01)
A stratified sand filter column, operated in recirculation mode and treating synthetic effluent resembling high strength dairy wastewaters was studied over a 342 day duration. The aim of this paper was to examine the ...
