Para tanto, foi feita a verificação das melhores taxas de aplicação de efluente de filtro anaeróbio em 4 filtros de areia, com profundidades de 0,25; 0,50; 0,75 e 1,00 m. As taxas de aplicação foram de 20, 40, 60, 80 e 100 Lm-2dia -1. O tempo do experimento foi de Maio de 2003 a Agosto de 2004. Para verificação dos organismos presentes no efluente utilizou-se a metodologia adotada pela Cetesb, descrita pela norma L5.550 (1989) - Hoffman modificado e os resultados foram expressos em número de organismos/L. Os resultados demonstraram que o processo de tratamento biológico ocorrido nos filtros de areia com leito mais profundo (1,00 m) foi o que apresentou melhor performance. Não houve correlação entre o número de organismos encontrados e as taxas aplicadas, mas o valor estipulado pela NBR 7229 (1993) de 100 Lm-2dia-1 de efluente aplicado, apresentou resultados satisfatórios / Abstract: This project was developed with the aim of verifying the use of sand filters as a post treatment system of effluents from anaerobic filters. Most of the pathogens found in the wastewater can be classified as protozoans and helminths. For that, the best application rates of anaerobic effluent were studied in four sand filters. They were 0,25; 0,50; 0,75 and 1,00 m deep. The application rates were 20, 40,60,80 e 100 Lm-2day-1. The experiment was run from May 2003 to August 2004. To verify the presence of the organisms in the wastewater, the methodology adopted by Cetesb was used (described as Standard L5.550, 1989) - Hoffman modified and the results were expressed in number or organisms/L. The results show that the biological process of treatment occurred in the deepest sand filter (1,00 m) was the one which presented the best performance. There was no correlation between the number of microorganisms found and the applied rates but, the value established by NBR 7229 (1993) of 100 Lm-2day-1 of effluent presented satisfactory results / Mestrado / Saneamento e Ambiente / Mestre em Engenharia Civil

Progress has been made in eradicating the backlog in sanitation. This is reflected by the 2011 Census results that reflect a 21 percent increase in the provision of sanitation between the 2001 Census and the 2011 Census. In the rural areas of O.R. Tambo District Municipality, the eradication of sanitation backlogs is done through the provision of VIPs for sanitation. Even with this progress, there are still challenges resulting from the previously constructed sanitation facilities. Some of the challenges relate to the poor quality of these facilities. Community members – via the IDP road shows have voiced their unhappiness with regard to some of the sustainability factors of these structures. Community members feel they were not involved in decisions related to the sanitation projects. It has also been observed that the municipality and its agents do not conduct environmental management studies; and some pits of these structures were not lined, and the health and hygiene training, together with post-construction assessment was not done. In this study, an assessment of the provision of sanitation facilities, in order to identify some of the key factors that are critical to the sustainability of rural sanitation facilities, was done. The research findings should be helpful in assisting local government to improve the provision of sanitation facilities, with the aim of ensuring sustainability, improving community satisfaction, and improving the quality of life for the people living in these villages. For the purpose of the study, a quantitative research approach was used. A research questionnaire was used to collect the data; and it was distributed through email to a sample of respondents that understood sanitation issues. The data were collected from municipal officials, consultants working on sanitation projects, as well as other stakeholders with influence and an interest in sanitation. The results were analysed to establish the findings and to propose recommendations, in order to improve the sustainability of rural sanitation facilities. From the research findings, the recommendations highlighted the need for an improved participatory approach in implementing sanitation projects. To ensure sustainability, the following issues are key: monitoring and supervision; community participation and adherence to design guidelines; a review of the sanitation provision policy; as well as the promotion of health and hygiene.

This thesis details the building design blueprints and associated project documentation for a sports and leisure center in the town of Holesov. The building consists of 2 floors and a basement. In the basement there are rooms for sporting and relaxation activities and a staff room for employees. There is a reception and restaurant in the first floor. The last floor contains massage parlors and solariums with the inclusion of a VIP lounge. This dissertation includes an architectural study and technical specifications for the sanitary engineering and concrete structures of the building. The latter of which includes the calculations for the cross reinforced concrete platform.

This thesis develops a one-dimensional version of a new data driven model of turbulence that uses the KL expansion to provide a spectral solution of the turbulent flow field based on analysis of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) turbulent data. The analysis derives a 2nd order random field over the whole flow domain that gives better turbulence properties in areas of non-uniform flow and where flow separates than the present models that are based on the Navier-Stokes Equations. These latter models need assumptions to decrease the number of calculations to enable them to run on present day computers or super-computers. These assumptions reduce the accuracy of these models. The improved flow field is gained at the expense of the model not being generic. Therefore the new data driven model can only be used for the flow situation of the data as the analysis shows that the kernel of the turbulent flow field of undular hydraulic jump could not be related to the surface waves, a key feature of the jump. The kernel developed has two parts, called the outer and inner parts. A comparison shows that the ratio of outer kernel to inner kernel primarily reflects the ratio of turbulent production to turbulent dissipation. The outer part, with a larger correlation length, reflects the larger structures of the flow that contain most of the turbulent energy production. The inner part reflects the smaller structures that contain most turbulent energy dissipation. The new data driven model can use a kernel with changing variance and/or regression coefficient over the domain, necessitating the use of both numerical and analytical methods. The model allows the use of a two-part regression coefficient kernel, the solution being the addition of the result from each part of the kernel. This research highlighted the need to assess the size of the structures calculated by the models based on the Navier-Stokes equations to validate these models. At present most studies use mean velocities and the turbulent fluctuations to validate a models performance. As the new data driven model gives better turbulence properties, it could be used in complicated flow situations, such as a rock groyne to give better assessment of the forces and pressures in the water flow resulting from turbulence fluctuations for the design of such structures. Further development to make the model usable includes; solving the numerical problem associated with the double kernel, reducing the number of modes required, obtaining a solution for the kernel of two-dimensional and three-dimensional flows, including the change in correlation length with time as presently the model gives instant realisations of the flow field and finally including third and fourth order statistics to improve the data driven model velocity field from having Gaussian distribution properties. As the third and fourth order statistics are Reynolds Number dependent this will enable the model to be applied to PIV data from physical scale models. In summary, this new data driven model is complementary to models based on the Navier-Stokes equations by providing better results in complicated design situations. Further research to develop the new model is viewed as an important step forward in the analysis of river control structures such as rock groynes that are prevalent on New Zealand Rivers protecting large cities.

From the Proceedings of the 1972 Meetings of the Arizona Section - American Water Resources Assn. and the Hydrology Section - Arizona Academy of Science - May 5-6, 1972, Prescott, Arizona / High concentrations of nitrate have been found in water samples from irrigation wells north of the Tucson Arizona sewage treatment plant. The plant, which had primary treatment prior to 1951, produced 2,800 acre-feet of effluent in 1940, 4,600 acre-feet in 1950, 16,300 acre-feet in 1960, and 33,000 acre-feet in 1970. Large amounts of treated effluent recharge the groundwater system north of the plant. Sources of nitrate contamination beside sewage effluent may be sewage lagoons, sanitary landfills, meat packing and dairy effluent, septic tanks, and agricultural runoff. Sewage effluent is considered to be the primary source of nitrate contamination in the area. Geologic and flow net analysis indicate that aquifer conditions minimize the effects of sewage effluent contamination. Chloride and nitrate migration appears to be similar in the aquifer. Large-capacity wells were sampled to reflect regional conditions, and chemical hydrographs of chloride and nitrate were analyzed. The seasonal nature of these hydrographs patterns depend on total nitrogen in sewage effluent. Management alternatives are suggested to decrease nitrate pollution by sewage effluent.

O presente trabalho foi desenvolvido para avaliar o potencial de utilização de um reator anaeróbico fabricado em PEAD Polietileno de Alta Densidade, produzido pelo processo de rotomoldagem em substituição aos reatores convencionais construídos em concreto e alvenaria, trabalhando em regime de batelada e enterrados no solo. Os estados de tensões e deformações foram avaliados utilizando o programa de Elementos Finitos ABAQUS versão 6.5 e a malha dos nós utilizando o programa MSC PATRAN 2005 formando 7329 nós e 2004 elementos, em uma malha otimizada para as regiões de maior curvatura (pontos concentradores de tensão). O carregamento é formado com uma pressão interna do biogás de 5 kPa acrescido da carga hidrostática de biomassa de 6000 kgf em uma fundação elástica calculada pela razão tensão/recalque a partir do Módulo de Elasticidade equivalente do solo (Esolo). Comparando o estado de tensões avaliado durante o carregamento foi possível constatar que a maior tensão obtida no elemento mais crítico para a utilização mais provável do reator atingiu o valor de 7,46 MPa (não supera 40% do menor valor de resistência à tração e ao cisalhamento do PEAD de 20 MPa) e a maior razão de deformação dR/R foi de 1.0%. O caso mais crítico avaliado foi quando o reator está enterrado, totalmente vazio, em solo com Esolo = 1,55 MPa e o material com EPEAD = 1550 MPa e com uma sobrecarga superficial no terreno de 20kN/m2 gerando uma tensão de 17,80 MPa no elemento 1955 (atingindo 89% do menor valor de resistência à tração e ao cisalhamento do PEAD igual a 20 MPa). Os resultados obtidos comprovam que o reator produzido em PEAD substitui com vantagens os modelos fabricados em concreto ou alvenaria, suportando a pressão interna do biogás e a carga de biomassa. / The present work was developed to evaluate the potential of uses of an anaerobic reactor manufactured in HDPE High Density Polyethylene produced by the rotomolding process in substitution to the conventional reactors built in stonemasonry, working in a batch regime and buried in the soil. The state of tensions and the deformations were assessed using the program of Finite Elements ABAQUS version 6.5 and the mesh of the knots using the program MSC PATRAN 2005 forming 7329 knots and 2004 elements, in an optimized mesh for the areas of larger curvature (tension concentrator points). The loading is formed with an internal pressure of the biogas of 5kPa added of biomass hydrostatic load of 6000 kg in an elastic foundation calculated by the ratio pressure/settling starting from the Module of equivalent Elasticity of the soil (Esolo). Comparing the state of tensions assessed during the loading was possible to verify that the largest tension obtained in the most critical element goes the most probable utilization of the reactor, reached the value of 7, 46 MPa (it doesn't surpass 40% of the smallest resistance value to the traction and to the shearing strain of HDPE of 20 MPa) and the largest ratio of dR/R deformation was of 1.0%. The most critical assessed case was when the reactor is buried in soil with Esolo = 1,55 MPa and material with EPEAD = 1550 MPa, totally empty and with a superficial overload in the land of 20kN/m2 generating a tension of 17,80 MPa in the element 1955 (reaching 89% of the smallest resistance value to the traction and the shearing strain of a 20 MPa HDPE). The obtained results confirmed that the reactor produced in HDPE substitutes with advantages the models manufactured in stonemasonry, supporting the internal biogas pressure and the biomass load.
