Book Guidelines for Calibration and Application of STORM

Download or read book Guidelines for Calibration and Application of STORM written by Jess Abbott and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides specific information on calibration and application of the Storage, Treatment, Overflow Runoff Model (STORM). The STORM model is intended for use in simulation of the quantity and quality of storm water runoff. In particular, the report discusses procedures for collection of rainfall, runoff quantity and quality data. Procedures are recommended for management of the collected data. Recommendations are provided for use of the site-specific data in calibration of the model. The calibrated model can then be used for two important planning components of a storm water study. These are: (1) Prediction of wet-weather pollutographs (mass loading curves) for use in a receiving water assessment model. These pollutographs can include both surface runoff and dry weather flow in combined systems. Since the computations are based on land use, the impact of land use changes can be evaluated. (2) Preliminary sizing of storage and treatment facilities to satisfy desired criteria for control of storm water runoff. The model will analyze a matrix of combinations of storage and treatment rates. Results include frequency information on quantity and quality of washoff of pollutants and soil erosion, as well as frequency information on the quantity and quality of storage overflows. (Author).

Book The Control and Treatment of Combined Sewer Overflows

Download or read book The Control and Treatment of Combined Sewer Overflows written by Peter E. Moffa and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1997-08-29 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Control and Treatment of Combined Sewer Overflows Second Edition Edited by Peter E. Moffa In cities where storm and sanitary sewers are operated as one system, storm runoff overflows remain the most common potential source of untreated human waste in the water supply—and the single biggest obstacle to achieving the swimmability goals of the 1972 Clean Water Act Amendments. Communities upgrading old systems in order to provide safe, EPA-compliant water to their growing populations face both logistical and financial challenges. Yet, in the last decade significant advances in combined sewage overflow (CSO) abatement have been realized. The National CSO Control Strategy was published in 1989, with the final CSO policy approved in 1994. The EPA has intensified research and development; receiving-water impacts have been quantified; more cost-effective plans, prototypes, and facilities have been tested and implemented; and the water supplies in over a dozen U.S. cities are showing dramatically diminished CSO pollution levels. This revised edition of Control and Treatment of Combined Sewer Overflows takes into account recent advances in research, planning, and practice to be the single most authoritative and up-to-date resource on CSO abatement. Written by expert CSO consultant Peter Moffa and a contributing team of top engineers, the book provides both the mathematical and analytical tools necessary for modeling current sewer systems and developing workable CSO abatement strategies. Control and Treatment of Combined Sewer Overflows, Second Edition Features: A condensed overview of federal CSO policy (watershed) Guidelines for minimum control, long-term control planning, screening and ranking, project funding, CSO monitoring and modeling, and performance measurement Fully updated discussions of mathematical models for combined sewer systems A wide range of practical control and treatment technology systems—many developed since 1989, and Recent Case Studies—a complete section on cost-effect analysis showing how a number of U.S. cities enact effective storage, abatement, and disinfection plans. This edition features new case studies on Rouge River, Charlotte, NC, and Decatur, IL, plus updated reports from Onondaga County, NY, and Washington, DC. Control and Treatment of Combined Sewer Overflows, Second Edition is an essential reference for wastewater and sanitary engineers, as well as city planners and administrators responsible for wastewater treatment. It is also the ideal textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in wastewater and environmental engineering.

Book Exploring Natural Hazards

Download or read book Exploring Natural Hazards written by Darius Bartlett and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-04-09 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030 has identified four priority areas for Disaster Risk Reduction: understanding disaster risk; strengthening disaster risk governance to manage disaster risk; investing in disaster risk reduction for resilience and enhancing disaster preparedness for effective response; and to "Build Back Better" in recovery, rehabilitation and reconstruction. Although tremendous progress has been made in recent decades in understanding the workings of the Earth systems and, in particular, its impacts on and responses to human actions, there remains a continuing and pressing need for knowledge that will allow society to simultaneously reduce exposure to global environmental hazards, while also meeting economic development goals. Exploring Natural Hazards: A Case Study Approach, contributes to the knowledge showcasing advanced practices for the monitoring of natural hazards. Through each case study, the book examines mainly hazards arising from processes within the hydrosphere and atmosphere, triggered or exacerbated by inputs to and transfers of energy between environmental components. It discusses the causes of these phenomena, and ways in which improved policy making, sometimes coupled with the application of appropriate modern technologies, can help to reduce people’s exposure to harm. Discussing challenges, lessons learned and recommendations, this book provides a snapshot of issues related to tropical cyclones and typhoons, desertification, floods, lightning as a hazard and the need for alert systems. It is a valuable resource for practitioners and professionals alike, for researchers, students and others who work at the intersection between environmental hazards, sustainable development and social justice.

Book Wastewater Treatment Plants

Download or read book Wastewater Treatment Plants written by Syed R. Qasim and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 1128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Step-by-step procedures for planning, design, construction and operation: * Health and environment * Process improvements * Stormwater and combined sewer control and treatment * Effluent disposal and reuse * Biosolids disposal and reuse * On-site treatment and disposal of small flows * Wastewater treatment plants should be designed so that the effluent standards and reuse objectives, and biosolids regulations can be met with reasonable ease and cost. The design should incorporate flexibility for dealing with seasonal changes, as well as long-term changes in wastewater quality and future regulations. Good planning and design, therefore, must be based on five major steps: characterization of the raw wastewater quality and effluent, pre-design studies to develop alternative processes and selection of final process train, detailed design of the selected alternative, contraction, and operation and maintenance of the completed facility. Engineers, scientists, and financial analysts must utilize principles from a wide range of disciplines: engineering, chemistry, microbiology, geology, architecture, and economics to carry out the responsibilities of designing a wastewater treatment plant. The objective of this book is to present the technical and nontechnical issues that are most commonly addressed in the planning and design reports for wastewater treatment facilities prepared by practicing engineers. Topics discussed include facility planning, process description, process selection logic, mass balance calculations, design calculations, and concepts for equipment sizing. Theory, design, operation and maintenance, trouble shooting, equipment selection and specifications are integrated for each treatment process. Thus delineation of such information for use by students and practicing engineers is the main purpose of this book.
