Hydrology for Environmental Engineers
- 2014
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This textbook aims to provide a comprehensible introduction to Engineering Hydrology for environmental engineering students. The book comprises of 8 chapters which provide a holistic view of hydrology, seen as the water transport in nature with human influence, and deal with the main hydrological systems and processes. Each chapter ends with a few engineering examples together with a discussion of calculation methods, followed by further engineering problems. The book has been compiled from earlier hydrology textbooks from the Department of Water Resources Engineering at LTH, Lund University, Sweden. The most important contributions are from Lars Anderberg (“Kort introduktion till hydrologi”) and Rolf Larsson (“Övningsexempelsamling avsett för Väg&vatten-byggnadsingenjörer vid LTH”).

Geochemical modeling of groundwater, vadose and geothermal systems
- 2011
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Geochemical modeling is an important tool in environmental studies, and in the areas of subsurface and surface hydrology, pedology, water resources management, mining geology, geothermal resources, hydrocarbon geology, and related areas dealing with the exploration and extraction of natural resources. The book fills a gap in the literature through its discussion of geochemical modeling, which simulates the chemical and physical processes affecting the distribution of chemical species in liquid, gas, and solid phases. Geochemical modeling applies to a diversity of subsurface environments, from the vadose zone close to the Earth's surface, down to deep-seated geothermal reservoirs. This book provides the fundamental thermodynamic concepts of liquid-gas-solid phase systems. It introduces the principal types of geochemical models, such as speciation, reaction-path or forward, inverse- and reactive-transport models, together with examples of the most common codes and the best-practices for constructing geochemical models. The physical laws describing homogeneous and heterogeneous chemical reactions, their kinetics, and the transport of reactive solutes are presented. The partial differential or algebraic equations representing these laws, and the principal numerical methods that allow approximate solutions of these equations that can provide useful solutions to model different geochemical processes, are discussed in detail. Case studies applying geochemical models in different scientific areas and environmental settings, conclude the book. The book is addressed to students, teachers, other professionals, and to the institutions involved in water, geothermal and hydrocarbon resources, mining, and environmental management. The book should prove useful to undergraduate and graduate students, postgraduates, professional geologists and geophysicists, engineers, environmental scientists, soil scientists, hydrochemists, and others interested in water and geochemistry.

Vatten och Avlopp : Byggvägledning 10. En handbok i anslutning till Boverkets byggregler
- 2008. - 1
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Vatten och Avlopp ansluter till BBR. Avsnitten som berör vatten- och avloppsinstallationer ändrades huvudsakligen i den tidigare utgåvan av BBR som efter en övergångsperiod trädde i kraft den 1 juli 2007. För vatten- och avloppsinstallationer gäller, liksom tidigare, att de ska utformas på ett sådant sätt att vattenkvalitet och hygienförhållanden tillfredsställer allmänna hälsokrav.

The Taiwan crisis : A showcase of the global arsenic problem
- 2010
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In the 1950s, the residents of the southwestern coastal areas of Taiwan suffered greatly from Blackfoot disease (BFD) due to the consumption of arsenic-contaminated groundwater. Groundwater with high levels of arsenic in southwestern and northeastern Taiwan received much attention. After arsenic-safe tap water was utilized for drinking instead of groundwater in the 1970s, BFD cases decreased greatly. After 1990, no new BFD cases were reported, and as a consequence, BFD problems disregarded. However, arsenic is still present in the groundwater.This book will improve the knowledge and understanding of the occurrence and genesis of arsenic-rich groundwaters in Taiwan. It deals with constraints on the mobility of arsenic in groundwater, its uptake from soil and water by plants, arsenic-propagation through the food chain, human health impacts, and arsenic-removal technologies. Taiwan case experiences are described in this book and can be applied worldwide. This book is a state-of-the-art overview of research on arsenic in Taiwan and is designed to: • create interest in regions within Taiwan that are affected by the presence of arseniferous aquifers; • draw attention from the international scientific community; • increase awareness among researchers, administrators, policy makers, and company executives; • improve the international cooperation on arsenic problems worldwide.
