Reservoir sedimentation is, at present, one of the main concerns in the operational management of dams. The resulting reduction of storage capacity has negative impacts on the hydropower production, flood protection, and availability of water for irrigatio ...
Sediment yield into reservoirs was underestimated during the design of dams in the past. As a result, today, reservoir sedimentation is endangering the sustainability of dams. Moreover, the obstruction of rivers hinders their capacity to transport sediment ...
Reservoirs created by dams are vital water infrastructures worldwide ensuring not only water, food and energy but also protecting against floods. Sedimentation endangers the sustainable use of these reservoirs. Fine sediments transported as suspension duri ...
In laboratory experiments, the influence of inflow and outflow sequences on the behavior of fine sediment was investigated. The experimental set-up consisted of two interconnected rectangular basins, between which water was moved back and forth. Suspended ...
Base Mine Lake (BML) is a pit lake used to store the Fluid Fine Tailings (FFT) generated by the oil sands industry, in the Athabasca region (northern Alberta, Canada). It is well studied to try understanding its evolution over time and to determine if an e ...
The Great European Lake Onego provides important resources for Northern Russia. This lake is ice-covered during 5 months in winter. However, very few data are available for winter, as most studies covered the ice-free period. Actually, comprehension of sea ...
This paper addresses the synthesis problem of non-isothermal interplant water networks by using a mathematical programming approach based on superstructure optimisation. A recently proposed compact superstructure (Ibrić et al., 2015) was used and the mixed ...
This bachelor project work aims to set up a prototype measurement station in the Sorge (a small river near the EPFL) to collect some data about the water and the environmental conditions. And also make the work reproducible so that someone, somewhere else ...
Processes industries consume large amounts of natural resources and generate large amounts of waste/emissions into the environment. Consequently, important issues and challenges within the process industries are rational use of raw materials, water and ene ...
Use of oligochaete communities for the assessment of the biological quality and the functioning of watercourses : a review of data from the Geneva area (Switzerland). – Oligochaetes are used in some cantons in Switzerland to assess the biological quality o ...
