of Missouri air pollution regulations. The results show that the emissions associated with the calcium carbide plant allow for 1,657 tons per year of production for a true de minimis source, without the need for a construction or operating permit. For higher...
Modeling the influence of climate and management practices on water quality in Goodwater Creek experimental watershed
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The objective of this study was to determine relationships among weather, runoff, water quality, and best management practice (BMP) implementation in reducing atrazine losses in the 7,250-ha Goodwater Creek Experimental Watershed in NE Missouri...
Polyacrylamide amendment for erosion and runoff control on soils of differing characteristics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
The use of anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) as a soil amendment is an emerging conservation practice. However, guidelines have not been developed with considerations of soil properties and topographic characteristics. The ...
The adsorption of environmental pollutants in gas and aqueous media utilizing nano-scale materials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
the ‘tuning' of properties on a porous carbon is required to target each different adsorbate; no single property is universally linked to higher capacities. Apart from aqueous pollutants, the adsorption of CO2 was thoroughly investigated on many porous carbons...
