Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phosphorus in surface runoff from agricultural lands is often implicated in the degradation of surface water quality. Many states are developing soil phosphorus application limits. Utilities must develop and implement new best management practices (BMPs) to control phosphorous. The objective of this project was to investigate the beneficial use of water treatment residuals (WTRs) to control non-point source (NPS) phosphorus pollution and protect surface water quality. Specifically, the researchers planned to examine the unique chemical characteristics of WTRs, namely the large concentration of aluminum and iron hyrdroxides, to combine them with phosphorus in high phosphorus soils, biosolids, and manures to reduce the likelihood of phosphorus release to aquatic environments. Several types of WTRs were selected and characterized based on the coagulant used (aluminum and iron based) and their form - dewatered or liquid. The research developed valuable new insight for the beneficial use of WTRs and demonstrated WTRs' potential as a BMP for phosphorus control in surface runoff from agricultural lands and for protecting surface water quality. In particular, the potential role of WTRs in Phosphorous Index programs was confirmed. Future research and full-scale demonstrations are needed to confirm the potential of land applied WTRs as a BMP for phosphorus control in runoff from agricultural lands. Land application of WTRs within a utility?s source water watershed, while subject to local and state regulations, can be implemented as part of an overall watershed protection program.

Book Synopsis Management of Water Treatment Plant Residuals by : American Society of Civil Engineers
Download or read book Management of Water Treatment Plant Residuals written by American Society of Civil Engineers and published by ASCE Publications. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Potable water treatment processes produce safe drinking water and generate a wide variety of waste products known as residuals, including organic and inorganic compounds in liquid, solid, and gaseous forms. In the current regulatory climate, a complete management program for a water treatment facility should include the development of a plan to remove and dispose of these residuals in a manner that meets the crucial goals of cost effectiveness and regulatory compliance. This comprehensive water treatment residuals management plan should involve the: 1) Characterization of the form, quantity, and quality of the residuals; 2) determination of the appropriate regulatory requirements; 3) identification of feasible disposal options; 4) selection of appropriate residuals processing/treatment technologies; and development of a residuals management strategy that meets both the economic and noneconomic goals established for a water treatment facility. This manual provides general information and insight into each of these activities that a potable water treatment facility should perform in developing a residuals management plan.

Download or read book Applied Manure and Nutrient Chemistry for Sustainable Agriculture and Environment written by Zhongqi He and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-04-07 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the rapid increase in world population and improving living standards, the global agriculture sector is confronting with challenges for the sustainability of agricultural production and of the environment. Intensive high-yield agriculture is typically dependent on addition of fertilizers (synthetic chemicals, animal manure, etc.). However, non-point nutrient losses from agricultural fields due to fertilization could adversely impact the environment. Increased knowledge on plant nutrient chemistry is required for improving utilization efficiency and minimizing loses from both inorganic and organic nutrient sources. For this purpose, the book is composed of 19 chapters that highlight recent research activities in applied nutrient chemistry geared toward sustainable agriculture and environment. Topics of interest include, but are not limited, to speciation, quantification, and interactions of various plant nutrients and relevant contributories in manure, soil, and plants. This book outlooks emerging researchable issues on alternative utilization and environmental monitoring of manure and other agricultural by products that may stimulate new research ideas and direction in the relevant fields.

Book Synopsis Clean Coastal Waters by : National Research Council
Download or read book Clean Coastal Waters written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-08-17 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental problems in coastal ecosystems can sometimes be attributed to excess nutrients flowing from upstream watersheds into estuarine settings. This nutrient over-enrichment can result in toxic algal blooms, shellfish poisoning, coral reef destruction, and other harmful outcomes. All U.S. coasts show signs of nutrient over-enrichment, and scientists predict worsening problems in the years ahead. Clean Coastal Waters explains technical aspects of nutrient over-enrichment and proposes both immediate local action by coastal managers and a longer-term national strategy incorporating policy design, classification of affected sites, law and regulation, coordination, and communication. Highlighting the Gulf of Mexico's "Dead Zone," the Pfiesteria outbreak in a tributary of Chesapeake Bay, and other cases, the book explains how nutrients work in the environment, why nitrogen is important, how enrichment turns into over-enrichment, and why some environments are especially susceptible. Economic as well as ecological impacts are examined. In addressing abatement strategies, the committee discusses the importance of monitoring sites, developing useful models of over-enrichment, and setting water quality goals. The book also reviews voluntary programs, mandatory controls, tax incentives, and other policy options for reducing the flow of nutrients from agricultural operations and other sources.

Book Synopsis Phosphorus Loss from Soil to Water by : H. Tunney
Download or read book Phosphorus Loss from Soil to Water written by H. Tunney and published by Cabi. This book was released on 1997 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eutrophication, caused by phosphorus enrichment, is not a new environmental problem. The persistence of eutrophication in an era when many point-source phosphorus inputs have been curtailed has turned the focus of attention to agricultural phosphorus. A workshop was held in Ireland in 1995 to discuss factors controlling phosphorus losses to water from agriculture. This book presents the proceedings of the workshop and consists of 18 chapters by the invited speakers and three chapters with the 45 poster papers displayed at the workshop.
