Dynamics and function of intracellular carbohydrate in activated sludge performing enhanced biological phosphorus removal
(Elsevier, 2010)
Recovery of biodegradable plastics from activated sludge is a promising sustainable
technology. In this study, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) ¿ a biodegradable plastics
material - was produced by activated sludge performing ...
Production of polyhydroxybutyrate by activated sludge performing enhanced biological phosphorus removal
(Elsevier, 2010)
In this study, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) 'a biodegradable plastics material' was produced by activated sludge performing enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) in batch experiments under anaerobic, aerobic and ...
Some geotechnical characteristics of soft soil deposits along the Terryland River Valley, Galway
(2016)
The ground conditions in the Terryland River Valley area present considerable site development challenges to geotechnical engineers. The soft soil formation consists of peat overlying very soft, highly compressible calcareous ...
On-farm treatment of dairy soiled water using aerobic woodchip filters
(Elsevier, 2011)
Dairy soiled water (DSW) is produced on dairy farms through the washing-down of milking parlours and holding areas, and is generally applied to land. However, there is a risk of nutrient loss to surface and ground waters ...
Constructed wetlands for the treatment of highway runoff.
(Nova Publishers, 2008-06-01)
Highway surface runoff contains pollutants such as total suspended solids (TSS), hydrocarbons, de-icing salts, and heavy metals. Treatment methods for highway runoff include storage/treatment facilities, such as constructed ...
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 ...
The use of laboratory sand, soil and crushed-glass filter columns for polishing domestic-strength synthetic wastewater that has undergone secondary treatment
(Taylor & Francis, 2010)
The aim of this study was to examine the performance of intermittently loaded, 150 mm-diameter stratified filter columns of 2 depths (0.65 and 0.375 m) comprising different media - sand, crushed glass and soil - in polishing ...
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 ...
