Leaky Sewers Hydraulically Disconnect from Groundwater: A Proof‐of‐Concept

Groundwater, EarlyView.
In this study, we newly demonstrate that leaky pipes can become hydraulically disconnected from the underlying groundwater—a phenomenon analogous to river–groundwater interactions. Through numerical modeling, we show that, as the groundwater table declines, the leakage flux from the pipe (in absolute terms) initially increases until a critical depth ...

An investigation into the performance of vegetated biofilters in removing nutrients from stormwater in the City of Cape Town, South Africa

, 2011
In 2009, the City of Cape Town (CoCT) adopted a stormwater policy which mandates that new and existing developments should reduce the concentrations of phosphorus and suspended solids in stormwater runoff by 45% and 80% respectively, but offered no ...

Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage: Groundwater for Efficient Data Center Cooling in the United States

Groundwater, EarlyView.
As the demand for data centers continues to rise exponentially, there is an urgent need to explore sustainable and efficient alternatives to conventional cooling systems for data centers. This article explores aquifer thermal energy storage as a technically viable and underutilized solution for data center cooling in the United States.

Dinoflagellate responses to nutrients and mangrove leaf organic matter in the bioluminescent Mangrove Lagoon, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bioluminescent bays (biobays) are uncommon coastal ecosystems featuring dense populations of dinoflagellates, often found in mangrove‐ringed lagoons with long water retention times and high organic matter (OM) levels. Although mangroves are associated with high dinoflagellate abundance, it remains uncertain how inorganic nutrients compare with

Nutrients Adsorption onto Biochar and Alum Sludge for Treating Stormwater

Journal of Water and Environment Technology, 2020
In this study, Eucalyptus wandoo (EW) biochar and alum sludge and their mixture are used in batches to remove nutrients (ammonium-nitrogen (NH3-N), nitrate-nitrogen (NO3-N), nitrite-nitrogen (NO2-N), and phosphate-phosphorus (PO4-P)) from synthetic ...

Life cycle thinking in plastics design

Review of European, Comparative &International Environmental Law, EarlyView.
Abstract This article aims to contribute to the ongoing scholarly reflection on the intersection between law and (plastics) production. It builds on the importance of ‘design’ for a more sustainable plastics economy by examining the role of law in bringing life cycle considerations into the design phase.
