An alternative to biological treatment for sewage
Most sea-side towns discharge sewage into the sea, normally some distance off-shore, via an extended out-fall sewer. A town of 100,000 population will produce more than 14,000 cubic metres (3,000,000 gallons) of sewage every day of the year. No small problem. In some coastal locations the sewage used to receive only basic, simple treatment, usually "screening" to remove any large objects, ...

Pumping raw sewage
The German company Heide-Pumpen deployed two pumps from their rental fleet for pumping raw sewage out of a public sewage canal. The pumps are located next to a Ferrari and Maserati dealer in the town of Starnberg in Germany. In dry weather conditions the capacity of the BA100 pump is sufficient, but during rain both a BA100K D193 as a BA300K D324 are deployed. Both pumps have a flow of around ...

Sewage pollution in New York, USA: impact of the ‘Right to Know’ Act
In 2012, New York, USA enacted the Sewage Pollution Right to Know (SPRtK) Act, which requires public notification of untreated and partially treated sewage discharges. With the passing of this law, New York joined 12 other states that have similar laws but none as comprehensive as New York's. As part of the SPRtK Act requirements, aggregated sewage discharge reports (SDRs) are made available ...

Insurance regarding radical uncertainty: approaches in France and in Germany for sewage sludge land spreading
Up to now, economic literature regarding the product safety has studied foreseeable risks that are known by producers. However, the literature has not analysed which liability rule and insurance schemes are efficient for radical uncertainty. This paper addresses this topic through insurance schemes in France and Germany for sewage sludge spreading. Section 1 gives an overview of economic ...

Recent papers on marine outfalls
In a dispersive coastal area under multiple organic enrichment sources, stable isotopes were used to trace organic sources of carbon and nitrogen in sediments and benthic macrofauna. The Bivalve Abra alba and the Polychaetes Nephtys sp. and Pectinaria (Lagis) koreni were reliable indicators of the input of terrestrial-derived organic matter into this coastal area, either originated in outfall ...

Investigations into and optimisation of the performance of sewage detention tanks during storm rainfall events
ABSTRACTCombined Sewage Detention Tanks (CSDT) are components of combined sewage systems commonly used in Germany. A lack of knowledge of the processes occurring within these structures causes the engineer to apply conceptual approaches in the simulation of pollutant transport. The investigations presented were implemented in an integrated systematic way. Extensive analytical, experimental and ...

Evaluation of
Enterococcus -infecting phages as indices of fecal pollutionNo microbial source tracking tool satisfies all the characteristics of an ideal indicator of human fecal pollution. For this reason, the potential of Enterococcus faecalis phages (enterophages) as markers of this type of contamination was tested by using eight Enterococcus type strains as the possible hosts. The prevalence of enterophages in animal feces and domestic sewage were determined, as ...

Exposure to sewage from on-site sanitation and child health: a spatial analysis of linkages and externalities in peri-urban Bolivia
Exposure to fecal contamination is a leading cause of childhood infectious diseases in low- and middle-income countries. Low-quality sanitation infrastructure and inadequate maintenance can make on-site solutions prone to spillage, exposing children to sewage. This paper uses a unique dataset with independent verification of sewage in and around the parcels of more than 20,000 houses with ...

UN Peace Keeping Force Case Study
International Peace Keeping Force In 2010, 37 international companies submitted bids in New York for supplying sewage treatment equipment to the International Peace Keeping Force. FMBR technology won the bid. FMBR has since been installed in 14 countries and more than 500 military bases for the International Peace Keeping Force ...

Removal of copper and lead ions from aqueous solutions by adsorbent derived from sewage sludge
Adsorbent prepared from sewage sludge has been used for the adsorption of Cu2+ and Pb2+ from aqueous solutions. It was noted that an increase in removal efficiency achieved 72% and 56% when agitation time achieved 120 min, and a decrease in the removal efficiency from 81% and 70% to 36% and 40% when the heavy metals initial concentration from 10 mg L?1 to 80 mg L?1 for Cu2+ and Pb2+ ...

EPA Provided Quality and Timely Information Regarding Wastewater after Hurricane Katrina
EPA provided quality and timely information regarding wastewater to States, wastewater treatment facilities, and the general public. The damage to the wastewater treatment facilities and their collection systems created a potentially critical health concern due to the possibility that people living in these communities would be exposed to raw sewage. Due to the risk of serious illness associated ...

Kicking up a stink
From 1990 to 2001, odour from sewage treatment works was controlled by local authorities under the Statutory Nuisance provisions of the Environmental Protection Act (EPA) 1990. Then came a landmark ruling in 2001, where it was judged that a sewage treatment works was not “premises” as defined by the EPA and the ability to serve an abatement notice for odour lapsed. As a result, the ...

Sensitivity analysis for the SimpleTreat model to simulate fate of chemicals in sewage treatment plants
SimpleTreat 3.1 predicts the distribution and elimination of chemicals by sewage treatment. The model is used as the default calculation in EUSES 2.0 to estimate exposure concentration in the receiving water, soil and air. A sensitivity analysis was performed to rank input parameters according to their influence on model predictions. Triclosan was selected for the base case. The sewage flow, ...

Low cost sewerage systems in Tegucigalpa
In 1995, statistics showed that about 150 peri-urban communities (279,000 persons) in Teguciagalpa lacked access to proper sanitation. The inconveniences of traditional latrines were unbearable for the community, thus they requested support from the Executive Unit for Settlement in Development (UEBD) for the construction of sewage system. Based on community demand for better sanitary ...

Uptake of sewage derived nitrogen by Ulva rigida (Chlorophyceae) in Bahía Nueva (Golfo Nuevo, Patagonia, Argentine)
Uptake kinetics of nitrogen derived from sewage–seawater mixtures (2.5–20% v/v effluent) were determined in the laboratory for Ulva rigida (Chlorophyceae) native from Bahía Nueva (Golfo Nuevo, Patagonia, Argentine). In terms of nitrogen concentration, experimental enrichment levels varied between 53.7 and 362.3M of ammonium and between 0.77 and 6.21M of nitrate+nitrite. Uptake rates were fitted ...
