Journal ArticleDOI

Human factors analysis and classification system for the oil and gas industry (HFACS-OGI)

TL;DR: Results found the HFACS-OGI system to be suitable for categorising accidents, following the analysis of 11 accident reports from the US Chemical Safety Board (US CSB), and indicated that failures in national and international industry regulatory standards would automatically create the preconditions for accidents to occur.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stormwater harvesting for irrigation purposes: an investigation of chemical quality of water recycled in pervious pavement system.

TL;DR: Analysis of the recycled water showed that PPS has the capability to recycle stormwater to a quality that meets the chemical standards for use in agricultural irrigation irrespective of the type of sub-base used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Laboratory-based experiments to investigate the impact of glyphosate-containing herbicide on pollution attenuation and biodegradation in a model pervious paving system

TL;DR: The protists showed resilience by quickly recovering and increasing their population compared with rigs without added herbicide, including the rigs with mineral oil added to them, but the presence of herbicide was associated with a decrease in the species richness of recorded protist taxa and a predominance of robust, cosmopolitan or ubiquitous protist genera.
Journal ArticleDOI

An evaluation of enhanced geotextile layer in permeable pavement to improve stormwater infiltration and attenuation

TL;DR: In this paper, an evaluation of the properties of a novel structure known as OASIS® which was designed at Coventry University as an enhancement of the commercially available geotextiles when incorporated in the permeable pavement system (PPS).
Journal ArticleDOI

Laboratory based experiments to assess the use of green and food based compost to improve water quality in a Sustainable Drainage (SUDS) device such as a swale.

TL;DR: This paper reports part of a WRAP-sponsored (Waste Resources Action Programme) study which investigated the potential for green and mixed green and food composts to be incorporated into Sustainable Drainage devices such as swales, and replace the topsoil (TS) onto which turf is laid or grass seed distributed.
