Surrogate Measures for Providing High Frequency Estimates of Total Suspended Solids and Total Phosphorus Concentrations

Surrogate measures like turbidity, which can be observed with high frequency in situ, have potential for generating high frequency estimates of total suspended solids (TSS) and total phosphorus (TP) concentrations. In the semiarid, snowmelt-driven, and irrigation-regulated Little Bear River watershed of northern Utah, high frequency in situ water quality measurements were recorded in conjunctio...

Desorption of pyrethroids from suspended solids.

Pyrethroid insecticides have been widely detected in sediments at concentrations that can cause toxicity to aquatic organisms. Desorption rates play an important role in determining the bioavailability of hydrophobic organic compounds, such as pyrethroids, because these compounds are more likely to be sorbed to solids in the environment, and times to reach sorptive equilibrium can be long. In t...

Evaluation the Correlation between Turbidity and Total Suspended Solids with other Chemical Parameters in Yazd Wastewater Treatment Effluent Plant

Introduction: Expensive chemical tests are usually applied to control the efficiency of wastewater treatment plants. However, the cost of measuring these parameters is one of the challenges of the wastewater treatment plants. Using statistical methods has been evaluated for possibility of calculating expensive parameters by measuring the inexpensive parameters in this study. Materials and Meth...

Estimation of total suspended solids concentration by hyperspectral remote sensing in Liaodong Bay

Optimization of the Coagulation Process to Remove Total Suspended Solids (TSS) from Produced Water

Produced water is the largest waste stream generated in oil and gas industries. The disposal of this hypersaline wastewaters containing a mixture of different organic and inorganic compounds is a relevant issue. In this study the removal of total suspended solids (TSS) from a real Produced Water, sampled at a full scale oil refinery plant, was optimized. Coagulation experiments were conducted s...
