Examining freeze/thaw cycling and its impact on the hydrualic conductivity of cement-treated silty sand
(American Society of Civil Engineering, 2015)
Cement-based solidification/stabilization (s/s) is a remediation technology that has been widely used for treatment of a range of contaminants. Currently there is limited published data on changes in hydraulic performance ...
Historical characterization and spatial distribution of organic contaminated sediment derived from kraft pulp mill effluent.
(Springer, 2019)
Organic sediment contaminants
[polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins, polychlorinated dibenzofurans
(PCDD/Fs), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAHs)] were assessed using secondary monitoring
data from a former tidal ...
Lateral sand filters are effective for removal of antibiotic resistance genes from domestic wastewater
(Elsevier, 2019)
The ability of lateral flow sand filters, used as on-site wastewater treatment systems (OWTS), to remove
antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB), and other relevant genetic markers
(HF183, ...
Using a geotextile with flocculated filter backwash water and its impact on aluminium concentrations
(Elsevier, 2018)
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 ...
Spatiotemporal assessment (quarter century) of pulp mill metal(loid) contaminated sediment to inform remediation decisions
(Springer, 2017)
A bleached kraft pulp mill in Nova Scotia has
discharged effluent wastewater into Boat Harbour, a former
tidal estuary within Pictou Landing First Nation since
1967. Fifty years of effluent discharge into Boat Harbour
has ...
Low impact development effects on aquifer recharge using coupled surface and groundwater models
(ASCE, 2018)
Low impact development (LID) is promoted as a sustainable management practice for stormwater in urbanized catchments. While the positive effects of LID features on surface water hydrology and water quality have been ...
Development of a leaching procedure to asses the risk of uranium leaching due to construction and demolition waste
(Elsevier, 2018)
Naturally-occurring uranium can be found at elevated concentrations in groundwater throughout the
world, with the potential to cause kidney damage in chronically exposed individuals. Empirical evidence
shows that uranium ...
