The Use of Microbiotests for Assessing the Influence of the Dilution Medium Quality on the Acute Toxicity of Chemicals and Effluents
Abstract :The influence of the dilution medium quality on the ecotoxicological response of test organisms using microbiotests was studied. The toxicity of reference toxicants (potassium dichromate, zinc sulfate, phenol) and of a landfill leachate and a process water discharged from a metal finishing plant was assessed in various dilution media including standard test media, 3 mineral waters and ...

An investigation of the surface and groundwater leachate from an old waste disposal site at Mamak, Ankara, Turkey
Mamak solid waste disposal site covers an area of approximately 0.5 square kilometre and the amount of waste it holds is around 13 × 106 m?. The amount of leachate measured through a weir at the toe of the body of waste is 164,000 m3? per annum. It is calculated that approximately 130,000 m? of this amount directly comes from the waste. Owing to the retention of precipitation by wastes, it takes ...

Case Study: Arjo Wiggins Factory Site, North Hykeham
In January 2000, Blackwell were appointed as the main contractor for the remediation of an industrial site in Lincolnshire. The site was formerly used in the manufacture of thermal papers, had become contaminated with metalliferous mercy, zinc and asbestos. Site remediation was primarily driven by high ground water vulnerability. Following a comprehensive option study, volume reduction by Soils ...

Common Treatment Technologies for Explosives in Ground Water, Surface Water, and Leachate
Explosives-contaminated process waste waters can be subdivided into two categories: red water, which comes strictly from the manufacture of TNT, and pink water, which includes any washwater associated with load, assemble, and pack (LAP) operations or with the demilitarization of munitions involving contact with finished explosive. Despite their names, red and pink water cannot be identified by ...

Wetland Biofilter System provides year-round, cost effective treatment to over 1.5 million litres of wastewater
The success of early surface flow treatment wetlands in Canada was limited by hydraulic blockages and oxygen limitation due to freezing. From 1991 to 1996, Dr. Edgar Lemon, with the Friends of Fort George, researched a sub-surface vertical flow constructed wetland treating lagoon effluent at Niagara-on-the-Lake, funded by the Ontario Ministry of Environment (MOE) and the United States ...
