Optimization of chemical dosing in water treatment for enhanced coagulation/softening as it pertains to DBP removal
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Treatment facilities out of compliance with EPA regulations are often not using optimal chemical treatment. Determination of the most effective chemical type, combination and concentration can aid in reduction of disinfection ...
Chloramine and MIEX control of disinfection by-products formed from an alluvial aquifer water source
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Disinfection has been applied for centuries for disinfection process. The formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) caused by disinfection become a main safety issue for the public health. Trihalomethanes (THMs) and ...
Optimization of aeration schemes and motor and blower usage for wastewater treatment
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
This thesis discusses the control of aeration schemes on a lab sized sequencing batch reactor used for biological wastewater treatment. The focus was changing aeration schemes for two lab reactors and determining which ...
Analysis and management of disinfection by product formation in distribution systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
The newly promulgated Stage-2 Disinfectant and Disinfection By-Product (D/DBP) regulations force water utilities of all sizes to be more concerned with their finished and distributed water quality. Compliance for many ...
Optimization of soil mixtures in bioretention cells to reduce nutrient loading to the environment from storm water
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
Bioretention cells are used as a way to remove some pollutants and particulate matter from stormwater. Typically a bioretention cell is placed at the edge of a parking lot or effluent stormwater structure to capture ...
Strategies for defining chemical connectivity between streams and wetlands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
Methods for characterizing wetland-to-stream chemical connectivity were developed to help regulators define jurisdiction and wetland managers prioritize their use of resources. Chemical connectivity here is based on historic ...
