How does climate change affect combined sewer overflow in a system benefiting from rainwater harvesting systems? | Tavakol-Davani, Hessam; Goharian, Erfan; Hansen, Carly H.; Tavakol-Davani, Hassan; Apul, Defne; Burian, Steven J. | Variability in precipitation caused by climate change can have a large impact on the performance of a water system, and therefore is an important input in hydrologic modeling. As part of a Long Term Control Plan, a model was developed in the US Storm Water Management Model based on data from the Cit... | 2017 |

Management of dissolved methane from anaerobic effluents | Gupta, Vedansh | Anaerobic digesters in wastewater treatment plants discharge dissolved methane, which usually stripped off to the environment on subsequent handling leading to GHG emission and loss of an energy source. To prevent the emission of methane gas, we utilized a packed bed column as a post-treatment biolo... | 2018-02 |
