... Corrosion monitoring is an integral part of any water treatment program. It is used to determine treatment effectiveness and to establish the optimum level of chemical treatment that is most effective, not necessarily the cheapest per pound. This article describes the various monitoring methods...

... water confined aquatic disposal facility for the dredged material at 70-m depth in the inner Oslofjord. To prevent uncontrolled contaminant transport, an on-line monitoring system is operated that consists of buoys with turbidity loggers and a water current velocity meter. Passive samplers are used...

... precautions. The possibility of beneficial reuse of dredged material was also studied, especially for low contamination sediments, as well as compatibility with national regulations. A specific monitoring plan will be enacted for the entire duration of remediation works, which are expected to start in 2010...

... Moisture is critical to the weathering of stone buildings and almost all weathering processes in building stones are influenced by the presence of moisture—especially the cyclic process of repeated ingress and egress of moisture that promotes their decay. Therefore, monitoring the moisture...

... handling difficulties, which prevent convenient and timely examination of the data. New trend monitoring and load checking systems are described that can reduce the amount of data that must be stored. These systems also provide the user with very rapid feedback during a test of any changes in either...

... sampling sites; however, there were significantly ( p < 0.05) lower levels of DO, and higher levels of BOD, COD, conductivity, sulfate, TDS, TSS, and turbidity, at Site 1 compared with Sites 2, 3, and 4. Controlled Superfund site monitoring lead environmental heath Paul B. Tchounwou...

... test lots (or the 25-meter and 250-meter lots), respectively. For over 38 years the amount of airborne chlorides from the sea spray have been monitored monthly. Chloride deposition is only one of several environmental factors which can contribute to atmospheric corrosion. Some of the other important...

... of 34 meters (111.5 ft). Typically, wooden buildings in Northern Russia last no longer than 250–300 years. The Church of the Transfiguration reached this critical age in the last quarter of the 20 th century. This fact highlights the importance of restoration work and the monitoring of the general...

... garner consisted of replacement of decayed wood; preparation of the wood for conservation by cleaning away dirt, lichens, algae, fungi, and insect damage; conservation of the original wood; stabilization of the original wood; and microbiological monitoring of conserved wood. algae authenticity...

... the application and utility of behavioral procedures. Swimming behavior is particularly amenable to computerized assessment and automated monitoring. Locomotory responses are sensitive to toxicants and can be easily measured. We briefly discuss the use of behavior in toxicology and automated techniques used...

... This paper describes the monitoring of several existing landslides in an urban area near Wollongong in the state of New South Wales, Australia. A brief overview of topography and geology is given and reference is made to the types of slope movement, processes and causal factors. Often the slope...

... been required to alleviate corrosion-related problems. Monitoring is a key element to improved corrosion control in cooling water systems. On-line methods provide evaluations of corrosion rates in real time and are sensitive to localized corrosion. Electrochemical methods of corrosion measurement...

...), and Geographic Information Systems (GIS), can aid in detecting, characterizing, and monitoring hazardous and radioactive wastes. This paper discusses the role of spatial data technologies in DOE's environmental mission and gives examples of their current application within the Complex. Specific barriers...

... This paper examines sources of supporting information for data that is collected in a monitoring program were samples are collected repetitively to detect change in some parameter over time. The development of a monitoring program goes through several steps, including site characterization, site...

..., and water quality data collected during the dredging activity. This paper discusses key parameters required to improve the current predictive techniques and outlines the type of monitoring program needed to improve the comparability of the techniques to measured releases. The recommended monitoring program...

... for understanding and improving monitoring and control practices in such operations. Corrosion-monitoring methods generally failed to correlate in a simple way with corrosion failures. Failure frequency correlated with several water chemistry parameters. Common treatment chemicals showed evidence of promoting...
