Innovative approach to unforeseen site conditions – case study
The Crater Resources Quarry 3 Remediation site was a former limestone quarry that was later used as a disposal site for Waste Ammonia Liquor (WAL) generated by the coke making facility at a steel mill. The WAL contained water, ammonia, and small amounts of various hydrocarbons formed during the coking process. Coking operations shut down by the mid 1980's and discharge into the quarry ceased. The ...

Oil Level Sensors: Monitoring Oil-Water Interface for Separation Efficiency
Overview In the extraction of petroleum (oil) by hydraulic fracturing, oil flows to the well emulsified with fracturing water. As part of the extraction operation, oil and water are separated at the well site. Separation also occurs at the refinery, where crude oil from the well site contains water that must be removed before refining. Separation vessels or separators are used for the process, ...

Municipal wastewater characteristics in Thailand and effects of soft intervention measures in households on pollutant discharge reduction
In developing countries with large Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) sanitation indicator, pollutant discharge reduction function of wastewater treatment systems should be considered. In this paper, pollutant generations per capita (PGCs) and pollutant discharges per capita (PDCs) are estimated as a base dataset for wastewater management in Thailand. PDCs of black water, i.e. toilet wastewater, ...

Evaluation of emerging waterborne contaminants in Ireland
A group of potential emerging contaminants in two Irish drinking water supplies were investigated. The aim was to investigate the presence of emerging contaminants which are not currently routinely monitored or regulated as part of the European Communities Drinking Water Regulations SI 278 of 2007 but are known or anticipated to occur in drinking water supplies. A monthly sampling and ...

Offsite quench oil reclamation program saves $200,000 annually
The Problem: A diesel engine manufacturer was looking for an alternative solution to installing and operating an onsite waste water treatment plant. The waste treatment plant was going to be necessary to deal with the increasing oily waste water being generated by the plant. As the plant’s engine production increased, so did the amount of oily waste being generated on a daily basis. After a ...
