A socio-technical study on the improved characterization of stakeholder behaviors and stream temperature in design of watershed conservation practices for climate change adaptation

Creator:: Noa-Yarasca, Efrain
Abstract:: Characterizing stakeholder behavior when making decisions in watershed management is a great challenge for planners, not only because plans are associated with physical uncertainties but also because stakeholders’ behaviors are influenced by numerous factors. Since stakeholders’ decision-making is linked to multiple types of uncertainty, communication of uncertainty to stakeholders by...

A Remotely Controlled Siphon System for Dynamic Water Storage Management

Creator:: Alnahit, Ali
Abstract:: This thesis presents an analytical, experimental and numerical study of the initiation of flows in a siphon for rapid and gradual openings of a downstream valve. Three initial water levels in the upstream tank and four final positions for the downstream valve were investigated. Two opening times of the downstream...

Down-borehole permeable barrier reactor : primary substrate selection for aerobic dichlorophenol degradation

Creator:: Kaslik, Peter J.
Abstract:: In situ bioremediation of pentachlorophenol-contaminated ground water in a sequential anaerobic-aerobic down borehole permeable barrier reactor requires a non-toxic primary substrate for dichlorophenol cometabolism. Serum bottle tests comparing the effectiveness of eight primary substrates for aerobic dichlorophenol degradation showed phenol to be the most effective followed by imitation vanilla flavoring,...

Characterization of Stormwater Runoff from a County Maintenance Facility and Evaluation of Temporal Performance of Bioswale in Its Treatment

Creator:: Gyawali, Kshitiz
Abstract:: In the last few decades, a lot of studies have been conducted to study about the quality of stormwater runoff from various sites and conditions. Highways, residential areas, and commercial sites are the focus of most of these studies while limited studies have done examination of stormwater from Maintenance and...

Bench-scale study for the bioremediation of chlorinated ethylenes at Point Mugu Naval Air Weapons Station, Point Mugu California, IRP Site 24

Creator:: Keeling, Matthew Thomas
Abstract:: Laboratory scale microcosm studies were conducted using site specific groundwater and aquifer solids to assess the feasibility of stimulating indigenous microorganisms in-situ to biologically transform Trichloroethylene (TCE) and its lesser chlorinated daughter products dichloroethylene (DCE) and vinyl chloride (VC). Three different treatments were conducted to determine the best approach for...

Engineering design and analysis of pipe ramming installations

Creator:: Meskele, Tadesse
Abstract:: The trenchless technology known as pipe ramming for construction of culverts and buried pipes under roadways or other infrastructure has gained significant popularity due to its cost-effectiveness and ability to alleviate surface disruptions associated with open-cut trenching. Although the experience with pipe ramming is increasing, there has been remarkably little...

Predicting nitrate concentrations in leachate resulting from land application of wastewater onto various crop systems including poplars

Creator:: Motte, Marie Quitterie
Abstract:: Land application of industrial wastewater with high levels of nitrogen requires adequate management practices to prevent groundwater pollution by nitrates. In this study a predictive computerized model was developed for nitrate leachate concentrations resulting from land application of wastewater onto crop systems including poplars. The study included a literature review,...

Kinetic and modeling investigations of the anaerobic reductive dechlorination of chlorinated ethylenes using single and binary mixed cultures and silicon-based organic compounds as slow-release substrates

Creator:: Yu, Seungho
Abstract:: This study investigated complete reductive dechlorination of chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs) over a broad range of concentrations. Tetrabutoxysilane (TBOS), as a slow-release anaerobic substrate, was studied for enhanced reductive dechlorination of tetrachioroethylene (PCE) present as a dense non-aqueous liquid (DNAPL). Four different site-mixed cultures were used in the study: Site-300...

Aerobic biotransformation of chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons by a benzyl alcohol grown mixed culture : cometabolism, mechanisms, kinetics and modeling

Creator:: Tejasen, Sarun
Abstract:: The aerobic transformation of TCE and cis-DCE by a tetrabutoxysilane-grown microorganism (Vancheeswaran et al., 1999) led to the investigation of novel substrates, including benzyl alcohol, for promoting cometabolism. The culture grew on carboxylic compounds and alcohols, but did not grow on formate, methanol, methane, propane, butane, ethylene, benzene, toluene, or...
