Modelling of Pollutants in Complex Environmental Systems, Volume I
Environmental modelling has enjoyed a long tradition, but there is a defined need to continually address both the power and the limitations of such models, as well as their quantitative assessment. This book showcases modern environmental modelling methods, the basic theory behind them and their incorporation into complex environmental investigations. It highlights advanced computing technologies ...

Experimental Research on Construction-Waste-Classification Algorithms for a Hyperspectral-Camera System
A large proportion of construction waste has a high recovery value, and some of the existing recycling-classification methods rely mainly on physical properties for vibration screening. In order to effectively recover construction waste, an industrial near-infrared hyperspectral camera is proposed in this paper to distinguish the spectral characteristics of the objects. The testing results were ...

Applications of Activated Sludge Models
In 1982 the International Association on Water Pollution Research and Control (IAWPRC), as it was then called, established a Task Group on Mathematical Modelling for Design and Operation of Activated Sludge Processes. The aim of the Task Group was to create a common platform that could be used for the future development of models for COD and N removal with a minimum of complexity. As the ...

Optimisation of Corrosion Control for Lead in Drinking Water Using Computational Modelling Techniques
In many respects, lead in drinking water has become a forgotten problem, since the mid 1980s when a range of environmental controls were implemented to reduce exposure to lead. This is largely because the sampling protocols, that underpin regulatory controls, are mostly inadequate and have tended to under-estimate the amount of lead that can be present in drinking water (IWA, 2010). Optimisation ...

Guidelines for Using Activated Sludge Models
Mathematical modelling of activated sludge systems is used widely for plant design, optimisation, training, controller design and research. The quality of simulation studies varies depending on the project objectives, finances and expertise available. Consideration has to be given to the model accuracy and the amount of time required carrying out a simulation study to produce the desired ...

Water and Energy
Water and Energy – Threats and Opportunities creates an awareness of the important couplings between water and energy. It shows how energy is used in all the various water cycle operations and demonstrates how water is used – and misused – in all kinds of energy production and generation. Population increase, climate change and an increasing competition between food and fuel production create ...

Stochastic Water Demand Modelling
Water quality processes in the drinking water distribution network are strongly influenced by the flow velocity and residence time of the water in the network. In order to understand how the water quality changes in the drinking water distribution network, a good understanding of hydraulics is required. Specifically in the periphery of the network, where customers are connected, the hydraulics ...
