Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Computation Fluid Dynamics Simulation against Tracer Data from a Scale Model and Full-Sized Waste Stabilization Pond
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assess a CFD model against tracer studies undertaken on a full-sized field pond and then on a 1:5 scale model of the same pond operated under controlled conditions in the laboratory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maximizing Productivity and Reducing Environmental Impacts of Full-Scale Algal Production through Optimization of Open Pond Depth and Hydraulic Retention Time
TL;DR: This paper presents a novel optimization strategy that seeks to maximize growth, minimize respiration losses, and minimize water demand through regular adjustment of pond depth and hydraulic retention time in response to seasonal changes through dynamic control of depth and HRT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of physical techniques to regenerate active slag filters removing phosphorus from wastewater.
TL;DR: The findings of this study challenge the validity of the existing dogma that active slag filters can be effectively regenerated by simple physical treatments, indicating further research is required to optimise active filter performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of greenhouse gas emissions from the storage and land application of farm dairy effluent
Johannes Laubach,S. Heubeck,Chris Pratt,KB Woodward,Benoit Guieysse,T. J. van der Weerden,Matthew Chung,Andy Shilton,Rupert J. Craggs +8 more
TL;DR: A review of the current knowledge of the processes causing these emissions and the amounts emitted is reviewed in this article, where it was found that methane emissions from ponds are the largest contributor to the total GHG emissions from effluent in managed manure systems in New Zealand.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sustainable sunlight to biogas is via marginal organics.
Andy Shilton,Benoit Guieysse +1 more
TL;DR: Researchers wanting to assist the development of sustainable biogas systems with viable process economics should forget about terrestrial and algal energy cropping and focus on the realm of scavengers.
