Book Marine Wastewater Outfalls and Treatment Systems

Download or read book Marine Wastewater Outfalls and Treatment Systems written by Philip J. W. Roberts and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2010-09-19 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wastewater disposal by marine outfalls is proven and effective and is a reliable and cost effective solution with minimal environmental impacts. The design and siting of submarine outfalls is a complex task that relies on many disciplines including oceanography, civil and environmental engineering, marine biology, construction, economics, and public relations. Marine Wastewater Outfalls and Treatment Systems brings these disciplines together and outlines all tasks involved in the planning and design of a wastewater system involving a marine outfall. This book concerns the design of marine wastewater disposal systems: that is an ocean outfall plus treatment plant. All aspects of outfall design and planning are covered, including water quality design criteria, mathematical modelling of water quality and dilution, gathering required oceanographic data, appropriate wastewater treatment for marine discharges, construction materials for marine pipelines, forces on pipelines and outfall design, outfall hydraulics, outfall construction, tunnelled outfalls, operation and maintenance, monitoring, case studies are discussed and methods for gaining public acceptance for the project are presented. Finally, costs for many outfalls around the world are summarized and methods for estimating costs are given. This is the first book to consider all aspects of marine outfall planning and construction. The authors are all extensively involved with outfall schemes and aware of recent developments. The science and technology of all aspects of outfall discharges into coastal waters and estuaries of treated municipal or industrial wastewater has advanced considerably over the past few years. Marine Wastewater Outfalls and Treatment Systems provides an up to date and comprehensive summary of this rapidly developing area.

Book Managing Wastewater in Coastal Urban Areas

Download or read book Managing Wastewater in Coastal Urban Areas written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1993-02-01 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Close to one-half of all Americans live in coastal counties. The resulting flood of wastewater, stormwater, and pollutants discharged into coastal waters is a major concern. This book offers a well-delineated approach to integrated coastal management beginning with wastewater and stormwater control. The committee presents an overview of current management practices and problems. The core of the volume is a detailed model for integrated coastal management, offering basic principles and methods, a direction for moving from general concerns to day-to-day activities, specific steps from goal setting through monitoring performance, and a base of scientific and technical information. Success stories from the Chesapeake and Santa Monica bays are included. The volume discusses potential barriers to integrated coastal management and how they may be overcome and suggests steps for introducing this concept into current programs and legislation. This practical volume will be important to anyone concerned about management of coastal waters: policymakers, resource and municipal managers, environmental professionals, concerned community groups, and researchers, as well as faculty and students in environmental studies.

Book Limitations and Effects of Waste Disposal on an Ocean Shelf

Download or read book Limitations and Effects of Waste Disposal on an Ocean Shelf written by Florida Ocean Sciences Institute and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A three year study to determine the effects of sewage outfall on macroscopic marine life and human recreation by comparison surveys was made using Boca Raton as a control for the Pompano Beach and Delray, Florida, outfalls. Sand samplings from the sewage lift stations were tested for total fecal and coliform counts, using standard methods. Temperature, salinity and current profiles were done and fluorometric dilution measurements were augmented by Sample Fit Analysis and Gausian Fit Analysis, measuring concentration deviations of the dye tracking of plumes resulting from the rising effluent surface 'boils'. A diffusion model furnished the basis of analysis on the various physical data and charted the fluorometric data. Rules are enumerated for limiting pollution on beaches as set by the state water quality controls.

Book Ocean Outfall Study

Download or read book Ocean Outfall Study written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the status and efficacy of effluent management options for the six municipal facilities in Florida's Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade Counties that discharge secondarily treated wastewater through ocean outfalls. Urban water requirements in this region are rising due to rapid population growth, while water supply problems loom due to uncertainties in the time-phasing and funding of water resources projects. The study reviewed previous work describing the effects of ocean wastewater disposal on ocean biota and human health risks as well as past examples of obstacles and successes of water reuse in Florida, the U.S. and abroad. Four alternative ocean outfall strategies, involving varying degrees of reuse, nutrient removal and ocean outfall use, were considered. The alternatives were evaluated at each wastewater treatment plant according to four performance measures: 1) amount of freshwater saved relative to a base case with no reuse, 2) reduction in nitrogen and phosphorus discharged via ocean outfalls relative to the base case, 3) public acceptance, and 4) costs. Management recommendations based on these evaluations are presented.

Book Waste Management for the Coastal Zone  Concepts for the Assessment of Ocean Outfalls

Download or read book Waste Management for the Coastal Zone Concepts for the Assessment of Ocean Outfalls written by E. F. Gloyna and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1973 the Marine Boards assignment was to review coastal wastewater management practices and their environmental impacts. The report considers various waste materials now disposed through ocean outfalls, evaluates several waste disposal systems, and assesses federal regulations governing waste disposal. It deals particularly with the rationale for setting federal standards to protect the marine environment.
