Rainfall and Temporal Influences on the Hydrodynamics of a Vertical Subsurface Flow Constructed Wetland Treating Domestic Sewage. [PDF]
The constructed wetland hydrodynamic study indicated the formation of preferential flow paths between Years 3 and 5. Rainfall reduced the retention time and increased dispersive flow in the sewage treatment unit. ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the hydrodynamic behavior of a vertical subsurface flow constructed wetland (VSSF‐CW) treating domestic

Geomembrane sustainability through longevity – 40 years of continuous service [PDF]
Longevity is a key component of sustainability in geomembrane systems. This paper demonstrates that long geomembrane performance is possible with attention to product design when used in a properly designed containment facility.

Numerical simulation of air resistance of French drains beneath geomembrane in field vacuuming tests
The French drains beneath the geomembrane are an important engineering measurement for the geomembrane as anti-seepage structures of reservoirs, and have a decisive effect on the air exhaust beneath the geomembrane.

Stability of supported geomembrane tube flood barriers of novel design
Geomembrane tube is an alternative method for the construction of flood barriers, cofferdams and breakwaters for flood risk management. Compared to the traditional method of using sandbags to build flood barriers, geomembrane tubes could be inflated very
