Sustainable Stormwater Management Technologies
ISBN: 9783838303024 / Angielski / Miękka / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There is much discussion regarding the effects of urban development on stormwater management, especially the negative effects such as flooding, stream erosion, and increased pollution. An emerging sustainable stormwater management philosophy is Low Impact Development (LID), which seeks to reverse these negative effects by designing infrastructure to mimic natural hydrologic processes such as infiltration. This paper considers several lot level stormwater management controls encouraged by LID using the Environmental Protection Agency's modeling program SWMM 5.0. The results show that for a...

Petroleum Cleanup in the United States
ISBN: 9783838355337 / Angielski / Miękka / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since the invention of the first fuel-powered vehicle in the early 1900s, the use of gasoline has increased steadily, prompting the need for production, distribution and storage of fuel. The use of steel underground storage tanks (USTs) to store gasoline until the 1980s resulted in the unintended release of millions of gallons of gasoline to soil and groundwater. Cleanup of leaking UST (LUST) sites has been a priority for the United States of America (USA) for more than 20 years due to the large number of sites, the potential harmful health affects associated with gasoline components and the...

Impact of Climate Change on Runoff of the Lithuanian Rivers
ISBN: 9783838358338 / Angielski / Miękka / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Global warming affects the fundamental variations of the hydrological regime and water resources. According to the climate change scenarios, the increase of air temperature as well as changes of precipitation and total evaporation might influence the annual distribution of river runoff and cause changes of the extreme runoff elements. These prognosticated changes may affect the development of water ecosystems by the new environmental conditions. The use of renewable energy sources in Lithuania as well as in EU countries is very important. One of the most usable sources of renewable energy is...

Biofuel Impacts on Food Crisis
ISBN: 9783838362472 / Angielski / Miękka / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. From April 2008, many developing countries faced food shortage and this led to massive public protest. In some cases the food is used for biofuel or land is used for biofuel feedstocks. Jatropha curcas tends to be promising and grows in arid and humid regions. Nevertheless, cultivating it blindly has impacts on food in Cameroon and anywhere. By integrated assessment, it is possible to manage J. curcas cultivation in Cameroon through a characterization of forest and grass lands differentiating small and large scale system. The questionnaires coupled with interviews helped to understand the...
