Advanced Anaerobic Sludge Treatment
ISBN: 9783838379456 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Proper management of excess sludge resulted from wastewater treatment through waste activated sludge process is a big challenge to wastewater treatment plant operators in order to comply with the stringent disposal regulation. To meet this objective with co-benefit of bio-energy recovery, anaerobic technology is a promising technique. However, anaerobic digestion in particular hydrolysis phase is a rate-limiting process which requires a long digestion time to fully stabilize the sludge. Therefore, a numbers of pretreatments are usually applied to shorten the digestion time...

The necessities and comforts of human beings, invariably robs the ecological structure, of the nature. One such activity is harvesting. This, more often than not, leads to the extinction of a species of life. The exploitation of fish populations provides some classic examples of disastrous exploitation of renewable resources. Often it is possible to prevent such extinction by proper management. If a particular species is on the brink of extinction, then a properly planned regulating policy ensures the damage to the...

Hydropower Systems Modeling
ISBN: 9783838367194 / Angielski / Miękka / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The high-elevation hydropower system in California is composed of more than 150 hydropower plants. The expected shift of runoff peak from spring to winter as a result of climate warming, resulting in snowpack reduction and earlier snowmelt, might have important effects on hydropower operations. Estimation of climate warming effects on such a large system by conventional simulation or optimization methods would be tedious and expensive. Employing optimization and cooperative game theory methods, this book presents a novel approach for modeling large hydropower systems and deriving climate...

How Healthy Is Your Lighting?
ISBN: 9783838347905 / Angielski / Miękka / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. From new research and increased public awareness into the affects of lighting in the workplace, an investigation was undertaken to discover whether Photobiologists or Light Design Engineers were correct in their perception of necessary light for the healthfulness of office workers. Results from objective and subjective investigations proved inconclusive as they showed that elements of thinking from both parties had some truth. This implied that, at present, there is no one method that can be used to gauge the complete healthfulness of lighting, and so a compromise of both objective and...

Karstification in the Foundation of Dams
ISBN: 9783838347301 / Angielski / Miękka / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The life span of a dam may be shortened considerably as a result of karstification beneath the dam. This study is based on an actual field site scenario in which the foundation of a weir is constructed on river sediments overlying gypsum bedrock, where limited flow conditions are expected. The numerical modeling tool, CAVE (Carbonate Aquifer Void Evolution) was used to simulate the development of solution conduits beneath the weir. It was concluded that, under limited flow conditions, if the conductivity of the intervening layer is sufficiently low, leakage rates may not pose a serious...

Speciation of Particulate Organic Matter from Combustion Sources
ISBN: 9783838344218 / Angielski / Miękka / 444 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Atmospheric carbonaceous particulate matter is of great interest due to their high abundances in the ambient air and significant adverse impacts on environment and human health. Prior to designing effective regulatory control strategies, one important task is source apportionment. A source apportionment model, Chemical Mass Balance, based on molecular markers, has previously been applied effectively in many regions, yet its precision depends on the accuracy of the input source profiles and monitored ambient pollutant data. Therefore, this book aims to apportion carbonaceous...
