The Influence of Stormwater Water Quality on the Adsorption of Copper and Zinc onto Five Different Sorbents

Creator:: Kanalos, Casey A.
Abstract:: Best Management Practices (BMP) are widely used as a method for stormwater volume control in urban areas to prevent an overload of water on receiving water bodies and treatment facilities. BMPs ability to treat stormwater has gone under critical review in the last few decades, and their performance varies both...

Sediment Deposition Characteristics in Shallow Saturation Excess Overland Flow with Application to Bioswales and Construction of a Novel Bioswale Design for Improved Contaminant Removal from Stormwater

Creator:: Wells, Jacqueline R.
Abstract:: Over the last two decades, urban stormwater management has grown to include green infrastructure, such as bioswales. These systems were primarily designed to mitigate hydraulic peaking during rainstorms but were also found to remove particulate and dissolved contaminants. However, little is known about the fate of these particulate contaminants after...

Optimization of Wastewater Sampling and Concentration Methods to Accurately Detect and Quantify SARS-CoV-2 in Varying Scales of Catchment

Creator:: George, Andrea D.
Abstract:: At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the world was unprepared for such a massive challenge to global health. Individual testing kits and personal protective equipment were scarce. There were minimal ways to track the rapid spread of the disease, until researchers discovered that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19,...

Mechanistic Properties of Plant-Soil Systems in Stormwater Treatment

Creator:: Hilliard, Richard
Abstract:: A dissertation describing the results of a series of greenhouse experiments conducted to better understand phytoremediation in stormwater bioretention systems.

Genome-Scale Metabolic Reconstruction and Analysis of a Pure Culture Anaerobic Digester

Creator:: Kirkendall, Tyler M.
Abstract:: Anaerobic digestion is a biological process in which organic matter is decomposed by a community of microbes in the absence of oxygen. The end product of anaerobic digestion is biogas, composed of methane and carbon dioxide, which is often recovered and used to generate energy. Commonly, biogas is not produced...

Exploring the Anaerobic Co-digestion of Food Waste, Brewery Waste, and Fats, Oils, and Greases through Biomethane Potential Testing and Response Surface Methodology

Creator:: Liberman, Madalyn R.
Abstract:: Food waste (FW), brewery waste (BW), and fats, oils, and greases (FOG), are prevalent waste streams in municipalities across the country, particularly in the Pacific Northwest (PNW). Anaerobic digestion (AD), the microbial-mediated transformation of organic waste into methane-rich biogas, offers a sustainable, energy-generating, waste management solution for these wastes. Anaerobic...

Exploration of Simultaneous Anammox and Denitrification (SAD) Biofilm Processes for Nitrogen Removal

Creator:: Hilliard, Richard F.
Abstract:: Anammox (anaerobic ammonium oxidation) bacteria are capable of providing low-cost nitrogen removal for numerous types of wastewaters. However, low growth rates cause long startup-times and inhibition by oxygen and metabolic substrates necessitate close process control to maintain performance. Incorporation of Simultaneous Anammox and Denitrification (SAD) into constructed wetlands could provide...

Examination of Photochemical Water Treatment by SolarBags

Creator:: White, Robert E.
Abstract:: Inadequate access to clean water is an ongoing problem in many developing areas of the world. In developed nations, it is important to plan for access to clean water following natural disasters. In situations without reliable access to electricity and chemical treatment methods, there is a need for an inexpensive...

Examination of Immobilized TiO₂ Nanoparticle Photocatalytic Treatment of Stormwater by LilyPads

Creator:: Lopez, David A.
Abstract:: Stormwater runoff is a significant cause for impairment of many water bodies, a problem that will inevitably escalate due to increasing land-cover change associated with urbanization. The effect of stormwater runoff has spurred legislation and the subsequent development and adoption of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to treat stormwater. This work...

Effect of Landfill Leachate Pretreatment and SBR Operational Parameters on Nitrification Efficiency and Activated Sludge Microbial Populations

Creator:: Miller, Kierstin M.
Abstract:: A year-long, bench-scale treatability study was performed to assess whether an activated sludge sequencing batch reactor could be used to treat an influent stream of 50/50 (v/v) municipal wastewater and landfill leachate to discharge standards established by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality. One primary obstacle that was exposed during...
