  • Using a geotextile with flocculated filter backwash water and its impact on aluminium concentrations 

    Jahan, I. Wood, M., Lake, C.B. and Gagnon, G.A. 2018. Using a geotextile with flocculated filter backwash water and its impact on aluminium concentrations. Geotextiles and Geomembranes, 46(6):759-769.
    The use of geotextiles (i.e. geotextile tubes) in wastewater treatment applications is ever increasing. This paper examines the potential of using a geotextile to improve upon the treatment of aluminium present in a filter ...

  • Using Heat to Trace Vertical Water Fluxes in Sediment Experiencing Concurrent Tidal Pumping and Groundwater Discharge 

    LeRoux, N. K., Kurylyk, B. L., Briggs, M. A., Irvine, D. J., Tamborski, J. J., & Bense, V. F. (2021). Using heat to trace vertical water fluxes in sediment experiencing concurrent tidal pumping and groundwater discharge. Water Resources Research, 57, e2020WR027904. https://doi.org/10.1029/2020WR027904
    Heat has been widely applied to trace groundwater-surface water exchanges in inland environments, but it is infrequently applied in coastal sediment where head oscillations induce periodicity in water flux magnitude/direction ...

  • Using TDA to Partially Replace Coarse Aggregates in Concrete Mixtures 

    El Naggar, Abdelmoneim, Sadeghian, Pedram and El Naggar, Hany (2019). Using TDA to Partially Replace Coarse Aggregates in Concrete Mixtures. In CSCE Annual Conference: Mechanics and Materials Specialty.
