1.1 As the contamination of freshwater and saltwater ecosystems continues to be reduced through the implementation of regulations governing both point and non-point source discharges, there is a growing emphasis and concern regarding historical inputs and their influence on water and...
5.1 General: 5.1.1 Sediment provides habitat for many aquatic organisms and is a major repository for many of the more persistent chemicals that are introduced into surface waters. In the aquatic environment, most anthropogenic chemicals and waste materials including toxic organic and inorganic...
Paper and pulp processing and additive chemicals represent a $10 billion a year global industry. These chemicals are an integral part of the total papermaking process from pulp slurry, through sheet formation, to effluent disposal. Environmental concerns, increased use of recycled waste...
This Standard specifically addresses the planning, design, operation, and maintenance of intermittent/ seasonal discharge lagoon and wetland systems that are most appropriate for use in Northern regions, where effluent discharge is either difficult or not possible in colder...
This document focuses on monitoring the activity concentrations of radioactive gases. They allow the calculation of the activity releases, in the gaseous effluent discharge from facilities producing positron emitting radionuclides and radiopharmaceuticals
5.1 Tests with algae provide information on the toxicity of test materials to an important component of the aquatic biota and might indicate whether additional testing (2) is desirable. Specific testing procedures under various regulatory jurisdictions follow procedures similar to those described...
These international guidelines are based on the assumption that monitoring of environmental components (atmosphere, water, soil and biota) as well as food quality ensure the protection of human health[2][4][5][6][7
From wood and coal to predominantly oil and natural gas. Thermal Power Plants use fuels for power generation. Water is used for process, cooling, as well as for service/drinking requirement. Chemicals are used for conditioning of water, corrosion-control and sometimes for conditioning of fuel as...
This Standard contains minimum requirements for residential wastewater treatment systems having rated treatment capacities of 1514 L/d (400 gal/d) to 5678 L/d (1500 gal/d) that are designed to provide reduction of nitrogen in residential wastewater. Management methods for the treated...
This standard provides guidance on the design and installation of controlled effluent retention facility in Network rail owned, leased or hired depot. It specifies requirements for waste extraction using vacuum assistance from rolling stock through hoses into holding tanks, filtering,...
This Standard contains minimum requirements for residential wastewater treatment systems having rated treatment capacities between 1,514 L per day (400 gal per day) and 5,678 L per day (1,500 gal per day). Management methods for the treated effluent discharged from residential...
Scope and object This International Standard is applicable to equipment used for sampling and continuous measurement of tritium in the workplace, in gaseous effluents discharged into the environment as well as in the environment itself and it is applicable to installed, portable and...
This Standard contains minimum requirements for onsite residential and commercial water reuse treatment systems. Systems include the following: - greywater treatment systems having a rated treatment capacity up to 5,678 L/d (1,500 gal/d). This applies to onsite residential and commercial treatment...
To address the issue of discharge of untreated industrial effluent in the water body causing pollution, adoption of cleaner production technologies and waste minimization initiatives are being encouraged. The book explains each related technology elaborately and critically analyses...
Pollution of waterbodies and the environment by petroleum industry is of particular concern in Nigeria. This problem can be addressed by the application of constructed wetlands (CWs) which is a nature-based system that is simple to construct, have low operational and maintenance costs in terms of...
This Standard contains minimum requirements for onsite residential and commercial greywater treatment systems. Systems may include: - Greywater reuse treatment systems having a rated treatment capacity up to 5,678 L/d (1,500 gal/d): This applies to onsite residential and commercial reuse treatment...
5.1 This test method is useful for analysis of many natural waters that contain thiocyanate from organic decomposition products and waste water discharges. Some industrial wastes, such as those from the metallurgical processing of gold ores, steel industry, petroleum refining, and coal...
This Standard is intended for use with devices intended to disinfect wastewater after secondary treatment and prior to discharge from residential wastewater treatment systems having rated treatment capacities between 757 L/d (200 gal/d) and 5,678 L/d (1,500 gal/d). This Standard also applies...
