Biofilm-Enhanced Treatment for Arctic Wastewater Stabilization Ponds Using Geotextile Substrate
(2013-08-20)In this thesis, a semi-permeable lining system was proposed to upgrade arctic wastewater stabilization ponds, acting as a biofilter. Although commonplace at lower latitudes, the effects of cold temperatures and short-duration ... -
Copolymerization Kinetics of Itaconic Acid and Acrylamide for the Application of Flocculants in Wastewater Treatment
(2023-11-27)The objective of this thesis was to identify and evaluate a replacement for acrylic acid in the production of anionic polymer flocculants, which are used for treating inorganic contaminants such as silts and clays in ... -
Design of Polyelectrolytes for use in Flocculation: Effect of Ionic Strength, pH, and Monomer Concentration on Reaction Kinetics and Copolymer Microstructure
(2023-12-12)Flocculation is a technology used for removing contaminants from liquids in various processes, including municipal wastewater treatment. Minimal attention has been paid to controlling the polymer microstructure using polymer ... -
Dewatering Strategies and End Use Examination of Paper Mill Residuals
(2017-04-06)Industrial productivity is often judged solely by the primary product’s marketability, while opportunities for secondary products derived from process waste are often overlooked. Port Hawkesbury Paper LP (PHP), located in ...
