Environmental considerations on solar disinfection of wastewater and the subsequent bacterial (re)growth

In this work, solar disinfection of wastewater was studied, focusing on the effect of selected environmental variables, namely light intensity, continuous/intermittent light delivery, and post-irradiation storage as well as dilution in lake water. These va ...

On-field chemical profiling of volatile and odorous compounds in water pollution cases: toward a forensic in situ approach

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, William Lacour

With 6% of Europe's freshwater resources, Switzerland is often considered the ‘water tower of Europe’. There are 57’600 farms and 750 wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) in the country. When manure or raw wastewater enters aquatic environment, accidently or ...

Evaluation of the risk to groundwater after treating logs with cypermethrin

Dominique Grandjean, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Dimitri Dousse

In order to protect conifer logs against attacks from the striped ambrosia beetle (Trypodendron lineatum ) during spring in Swiss forests, logs are treated with the insecticide cypermethrin. Rainfall can cause the insecticide to leach into the ground, pote ...

Greenhouse gas emissions from animal husbandry and strategy for their reduction in indonesian villages

The animal husbandry sector is a large contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, particularly the emissions of methane and nitrous oxide. It is possible to reduce these emissions through better livestock management, composting of animal manure or turn ...

Non-contact assessment of COD and turbidity concentrations in water using diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectroscopy

David Andrew Barry, Luca Rossi, Oliver Akermann, Jon Skirnir Agustsson

Water contamination is an important environmental concern underlining the need for reliable real-time information on contaminant concentrations in natural waters. Here, a new non-contact UV-Vis spectroscopic approach for monitoring contaminants in water, a ...

Solving Richards Equation for snow improves snowpack meltwater runoff estimations in detailed multi-layer snowpack model

Michael Lehning, Nander Wever, Charles Fierz

The runoff from a snow cover during spring snowmelt or rain-on-snow events is an important factor in the hydrological cycle. In this study, three water balance schemes for the 1 dimensional physically-based snowpack model SNOWPACK are compared to lysimeter ...

Ammonia exposure promotes algal biomass in an ombrotrophic peatland

Vincent Eric Jules Jassey

Nitrogen pollution affects many peatlands with consequences for their biodiversity and ecosystem function. Microorganisms control nutrient cycling and constitute most of the biodiversity of peatlands but their response to nitrogen is poorly characterised a ...
