Book excerpt: The tunnel wash consists of a conveyor system which pulls the vehicle through the length of the building, passing it through the washing, rinsing, waxing and drying areas. [...] The list did not however rncludethe wash sites for the logging and petroleum industries -- the sites of the former are not within the Greater Vancouver area and petroleum indust~s tanker trucks are generally washed on-site at the refineries, where the wash water is part of the overall site drainage plan. [...] In an effort to determine the efficacyof the sump and the quality of the water being discharged to the sewer, grab sanrples were taken of the sump'sfirst and final chambers (#1 and #3). [...] Because of the high levels of metals and oil& grease in the wastewater, the bottom sludge in the - sump likely also eantains high levels of the same. [...] A section of the paved area around the covered wash area is bermed, so that on dry days trucks maybe washed m this area and the wash water can still be routed to the pretreatment system l%ere is a considerable discrepancy between the ownefs perception of the wastewater pretreatment system and discharge location, the site drawings at the City of Bumab~s Building Department and the observations of t.

Download or read book Two Billion Cars written by Daniel Sperling and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-13 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today there are over a billion vehicles in the world, and within twenty years, the number will double, largely a consequence of China's and India's explosive growth. Given that greenhouse gases are already creating havoc with our climate and that violent conflict in unstable oil-rich nations is on the rise, will matters only get worse? Or are there hopeful signs that effective, realistic solutions can be found? Blending a concise history of cars and their impact on the world, leading transportation experts Daniel Sperling and Deborah Gordon explain how we arrived at this state, and what we can do about it. Sperling and Gordon assign blame squarely where it belongs-on the auto-industry, short-sighted government policies, and consumers. They explore such solutions as getting beyond the gas-guzzler monoculture, re-inventing cars, searching for low-carbon fuels, and more. Promising advances in both transportation technology and fuel efficiency together with shifts in traveler behavior, they suggest, offer us a way out of our predicament. The authors conclude that the two places that have the most troublesome emissions problems--California and China--are the most likely to become world leaders on these issues. Arnold Schwarzenegger's enlightened embrace of eco-friendly fuel policies, which he discusses in the foreword, and China's forthright recognition that it needs far-reaching environmental and energy policies, suggest that if they can tackle the issue effectively and honestly, then there really is reason for hope. Updated with a new afterword that sheds light on the profound changes in the global economy in the last year, Two Billion Cars makes the case for why and how we need to transform transportation now more than ever. "Authoritatively prescriptive." --Tom Vanderbilt, Wilson Quarterly "Provocative and pleasurable, far-seeing and refreshing, fact-based and yet a page-turner, global in scope but rooted in real places. The authors make a convincing case that smart consumers driving smart electric-drive cars can find the critical path to a safer planet." --Robert Socolow, Princeton University "In this insightful and persuasive book, Sperling and Gordon highlight one of the biggest environmental challenges of this century: two billion cars. They rightly contend that we cannot avert the worst of global warming without making our cars cleaner and petroleum-free. Luckily the authors also offer a roadmap for navigating this problem that is both visionary and achievable." --Frances Beinecke, President, Natural Resources Defense Council

Download or read book WASTEWATER TREATMENT written by KARIA, G. L. and published by PHI Learning Pvt. Ltd.. This book was released on 2023-11-01 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Third Edition of the book is thoroughly revised to present a detailed understanding of the principles of operation and design of domestic wastewater treatment plants. The book opens up with clearly stating the basic concepts of treatment of wastewater and the design considerations required for an efficient treatment plant. Thereafter, the design criteria for domestic wastewater treatment units are discussed which forms the basis of sizing of the treatment plant units. In essence, the text is strengthened to give detailed procedures for design computations of all units of a wastewater treatment plant with many solved numericals. Most common types of reactors used for physical operations and biological processes in wastewater treatment plants are also discussed in detail. The present edition includes a new chapter on “Biological Nutrient Removal” covering the aspects of nitrification and denitrification. This is now essentially legally required. The book is intended for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of Civil and Environmental Engineering. It will also be useful to the practising and consulting engineers involved in the design of wastewater treatment plant and municipal corporation and pollution control authorities. KEY FEATURES • Provides several examples supported by graphs and sketches to highlight the various design concepts of wastewater treatment units. • Encapsulates significant theoretical and computational information, and useful design hints in Note and Tip boxes. • Includes well-graded practice exercises to help students develop the skills in designing treatment plants. TARGET AUDIENCE • B.E./B.Tech (Civil/Environmental Engg.) • M.E./M.Tech (Civil/Environmental Engg.) • Practising and Consulting Engineers • Pollution Control Authority

Download or read book Urban Runoff Quality Management written by Water Environment Federation and published by ASCE Publications. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual comprises a holistic view of urban runoff quality management. For the beginner, who has little previous exposure to urban runoff quality management, the manual covers the entire subject area from sources and effects of pollutants in urban runoff through the development of management plans and the design of controls. For the municipal stormwater management agency, guidance is given for developing a water quality management plan that takes into account receiving water use objectives, local climatology, regulation, financing and cost, and procedures for comparing various types of controls for suitability and cost effectiveness in a particular area. This guidance will also assist owners of large-scale urban development projects in cost-effectively and aesthetically integrating water quality control to the drainage plan. The manual is also directed to designers who desire a self-contained unit that discusses the design of specific quality controls for urban runoff.
