Nutrient Transport Conditions in the Ecuadorian Andes

Creator:: Bomeisl, Lauren
Abstract:: This study examines different fate and transport processes of N and P based on uncultivated grass, contour crop, and livestock management across different topographies (i.e. 5% vs. 30% slope) found within the tropical mountains of volcanic pedogenesis in the Ambato river catchment. The hydrologic, cultural, and agricultural properties of the...

Bioswales for Stormwater Treatment: Characterization of Soil Contamination

Creator:: Honeycutt, Nora C.
Abstract:: The OSU-Benton County Green Stormwater Infrastructure Research (OGSIR) Facility was created to test various methods of stormwater treatment. At this facility, runoff from the Benton County Development Department property is captured and pumped into a bioswale. This bioswale is comprised of layers of rock, gravel, sand, and soil, and is...

Bruce Starker Arts Park Water Quality Testing to Determine Source of Algal Growth in Dunawi Creek and Evaluate Treatment Efficiency of Grass Swale

Creator:: Nelson, Miranda F.
Abstract:: Urban stormwater runoff contains pollutants that have a detrimental effect on pond water quality and watershed water quality. Stormwater best management practices (BMPs), such as a constructed wetland, can treat these pollutants through processes like infiltration, adsorption, and plant uptake. It is hypothesized that the surface-runoff fed pond at Bruce...

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...

Assessment and Service Life Prediction of Microbial Induced Corrosion of Concrete (MICC)

Creator:: Sahan, Feyza N.
Abstract:: Microbial-induced corrosion of concrete (MICC) is a multi-stage deterioration process caused by microbial activity in wastewater infrastructure. MICC is a worldwide issue due to the reduced service life of the wastewater infrastructure and the economic impact associated with increased maintenance and reconstruction costs. This thesis explores two critical aspect of...

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...

Assessment of Decentralized Wastewater Treatment System- Potential Impact on Water Quality

Creator:: Chavan, Padmaja Ramesh
Abstract:: Watershed analysis is a method used to collectively characterize ecosystem elements present within a watershed. Wastewater flow and pollutant content help to define the appropriate wastewater treatment system necessary to treat the wastewater within the watershed. Watershed monitoring aids to investigate the potential contamination through analysis of surface waterbodies. Major...

Evaluating Biochar for the Sustainable Treatment of Heavy Metals in Stormwater: Characteristics, Mechanisms, and Barriers

Creator:: Burch, Sarah
Abstract:: Heavy metals, such as copper, zinc, and cadmium, are ubiquitous in stormwater and potentially toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations. Removal of heavy metals contamination by conventional treatment is expensive and does not always reduce metals concentrations low enough to ensure safety of all aquatic species. This research seeks...

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...

Africa-Appropriate Urban Stormwater Management: The State of the Art

Creator:: Kahsai, Simon K.
Abstract:: Urban development causes changes in the hydrology, increasing stormwater runoff volumes, which often leads to flooding and ecosystem degradation. This is a common phenomenon in most urban Africa, due to lack of stormwater drainage infrastructures. Green Infrastructure (GI) has been shown to be an effective approach to lessen the effects...
