(Taylor & Francis, 2009-11)As a part of attempt for phosphorus (P) recovery from P-saturated alum sludge, which was used as a low-cost P-adsorbent in treatment reed bed for wastewater treatment, decolouration of H2SO4 leachate obtained from previous ...
-
(University College Dublin. Urban Institute Ireland, 2007)
-
(Institution of Civil Engineers, 2012-08-01)A thermal response test (TRT) is a controlled insitu test during which a known quantity of heat energy is injected into a closed loop heat-exchanger pipe while the heat dissipation rate into the surrounding ground is ...
-
(Springer, 2010-01)Simple limit equilibrium analyses can be performed to determine the Factor of Safety (FOS) against slope failure of unsaturated soil slopes. However, many of the input parameters needed for these analyses are highly variable, ...
-
(Copernicus Publications, 2008-07)Since 1975, flood estimation in Ireland has generally followed methods as outlined in the Flood Studies Report (Natural Environment Research Council, 1975). An update of this for conditions in the Republic of Ireland ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2009-03)The ultimate goal of the project reported herein was to determine whether or not a readily quantifiable threshold data density could be established to accurately predict subsurface lithology. A study area in Dublin Ireland ...
-
(Geothermal Association of Ireland, 2011)Ireland has one of the highest energy dependencies in Europe and as such must adapt quickly to increase renewable energy exploitation levels in order to secure its energy future. A mix of renewable energy technology types ...
-
(ASTM, 2009-03)This paper discusses the design and development of a new direct simple shear (DSS) apparatus for testing peat soils. The apparatus has been designed to test peat at low effective stresses, representative of its in-situ ...
-
(Taylor & Francis, 2009-05)This paper describes (in a summarised manner) a research attempt to integrate the dewatered alum sludge, a residual by-product of drinking water treatment process, into a constructed wetland (CW) system for the purpose of ...
-
(IWA Publishing, 2006-06)Alum sludge refers to the by-product from the processing of drinking water in Water Treatment Works. In this study, groups of batch experiments were designed to identify the characteristics of dewatered alum sludge for ...
-
(ASV Publishers, 2003-09)Construction related dewatering in urban areas often induces damage of existing structures. The following forensic investigation highlights the complexities of such a phenomenon. Somerset plantation, a national historic ...
-
(Taylor & Francis, 2011-01)The detailed mechanisms of oxygen release from the roots of plants in constructed wetlands (CW) remains unclear. This study investigated the variation of root oxygen release rate, and the effect of photosynthesis during ...
-
(Elsevier, 2011-05)To assess the role of plants for oxygen offering in constructed wetlands, this study experimentally evaluated the amount of root oxygen release rate using mass balance method. The mass balance calculation is based on the ...
-
(University College Dublin. Urban Institute Ireland, 2008)The MOLAND project's aim is to provide spatial planning tools that can be used to assess, monitor and model the development of urban and regional environments. To date it has been applied to an area of over 70,000km2 across ...
-
(Elsevier, 2007-07)Drinking-water treatment sludge (DWTS) produced at water treatment plants is an inescapable by-product and has long been treated as a waste for landfill. In this study, a series of batch adsorption tests were conducted ...
-
(Springer, 2008-04)This paper describes the development of a model to analyse the rate of infiltration and run-off experienced by a partly saturated soil slope during rainfall. The paper first reviews some of the most popular infiltration ...
-
(Taylor and Francis, 2004-11)Despite being considered one of many seventeenth century American wall insulation systems, brick nogging emerges as a prevalent construction type throughout all of original colonies. Used in both framed and hewn-log ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2011-03)With one of the highest energy dependencies in the European Union, Ireland must adapt quickly to renewable energy technologies or risk paying the penalty in the form of high energy prices in years to come. Escalating ...
-
(Geological Society of London, 2007-05)Guidance is provided for geotechnical engineers designing civil engineering works in silty soils. A detailed characterisation of two estuarine silt sites in Ireland is performed and the soil properties are linked to their ...
-
(Elsevier, 2010-02-09)Guidance is provided for geotechnical engineers designing civil engineering works in silty soils based on a detailed characterisation of a glaciomarine silt from Os in western Norway. It was found that these soils are ...
