Avivid Global Water was contracted by a Construction & Demolition (C&D) landfill in North Carolina to develop a unique solution for their landfill leachate. This site was recognized locally as producing some of the worst smelling landfill leachate in the area, and as the water was trucked through town on the way to the local publicly owned treatment works it was causing public concern. ...
Artificial Wicking Aquifer 52mm Flo-Cell was applied as ‘wicking bed’ technology to store locally harvested stormwater runoff within shallow sand aquifers below two large open lawn areas. Bio-Swale & Infiltration The system was designed with Flo-Channels to infiltrate runoff water to clean and filter, recharging ...
We often look at how algae affect humans. Whether by analyzing how toxic blooms harms us or by looking at the health benefits of including edible ones in our diets, countless areas benefit from a good understanding of the different kinds of algae. However, a recent study looks at the issue from a flipped perspective: how do humans affect cyanobacteria? Cyanobacteria are a type of photosynthetic ...
The swale is an open, shallow channel designed to slow runoff, filter it, and promote infiltration into the ground. Excess water moving through the soil profile is captured by Atlantis Single Flo-Tank®. The use of a swale to collected water results in smaller runoff volumes, lower peak discharge rates and cleaner runoff.The vegetation in ...
Check dams, in the South Asian context, are essentially small dams built across waterways from earthen or masonry materials to retain runoff flows and promote infiltration of runoff to underlying aquifers. ...
It : “prohibits discharge into surface water, groundwater and seawater, by direct or indirect discharge or after runoff on the soil or infiltration, of lubricants or oils, new or used, belonging to the following categories: oils for engines and compressors and engine base oil, oils used as raw material for the manufacture of lubricating additives, for ...
The oils will then mix with drainage water or with rainwater runoff and infiltrate deep into the soil, thereby polluting the soil and phreatic water. ...
Client: Halton Region, 1151 Bronte Road, Oakville, Ontario, Canada, L6M 3L1 Sudhakar Kurli, P.Geo., Source Protection Coordinator Client: Key Personnel: E.J. Wexler, D. Kassenaar, A. Kodippili, J. Ford. Earthfx completed multiple modelling assessments for Halton Region beginning with the development of models for the Milton area, which were used in the Halton Aquifer Management Plan (Holysh, ...
Client: Cumulative Environmental Management Association (CEMA), Ms. Katherine Duffett, 9914 Morrison Street, Suite 214 Fort McMurray, AB T9H 4A4 Jon Paul Jones, Ph.D., Senior Water Resources Modeller, Suncor Energy Inc. 150 – 6th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 3E3 Tel: 403-296-8128 [email protected] Key Personnel: Dirk Kassenaar, E.J. Wexler, Earthfx Inc. ...
Client: Public Works, Region of Peel, T. Estephan, (905-791-7800 ext. 4339) Infrastructure Planning and Studies-Growth, Groundwater and Source Water Protection, 10 Peel Centre Drive, Brampton, ON L6T 4B9 In March, 2019 Earthfx was contracted by the Region of Peel to develop a fully integrated GSFLOW surface water/groundwater model of the entire region. This project, referred to as the ...
This method results in improved soil health, added soil protection, and reduced water runoff. Why It Matters The benefits of conservation tillage will vary depending on the crop being grown, topography, soil characteristics, surface cover, pest control, chemical use, and weather. ...

This aggregate provides the necessary strength to support vehicular loads but creates an impervious area that increases runoff. By integrating the GroundPro GRV product, the aggregate can be comprised solely of an open-graded stone that allows for infiltration of runoff. ...
The cap and cover system was designed to effectively eliminate surface water infiltration and potential runoff of trace concentrations of selenium contained in the waste rock. ...

Hygrographs demonstrate how such soil degradation can impede rainfall infiltration and increase runoff, floods and soil erosion. Effectively this structural soil degradation and collapse can aridify soils and make them less resilient and bio-productive and more drought prone, even with normal or above normal rainfall. ...
Stormwater System Application The final design application of any underground system impacts the key criteria of design and installation. Infiltration basins rely on the hydrologic capacity of the soil and the overall footprint to ensure the runoff can infiltrate in a timely manner. ...
As our cities and municipalities grow older, the utility and wastewater infrastructure and corrosion preventive program for underground asset protection are aging with them. Municipalities and Utility Companies are struggling to handle rehabilitation measures and effective corrosion prevention programs to deal with prolonging the life of their buried assets. More municipalities are in the process ...
Infiltration is a key process controlling runoff, but varies depending on antecedent conditions. This study provides estimates on initial conditions for urban permeable surfaces via continuous simulation of the infiltration capacity using historical rain data. An analysis of historical rainfall records show that accumulated rainfall prior to ...
Especially the refreezing of meltwater and prevention of runoff and infiltration of meltwater by frozen soils and ice layers can make simulations of shallow snowpacks challenging. ...
Processing methods resulted in the creation of a large mine tailings pond that had high concentrations of iron, arsenic, zinc and lead. Spring runoff and summer rainfall then infiltrated through the pond resulting in contamination of the lake with heavy metals. ...
Hydrological simulations revealed lower saturation and higher infiltration rates for unconverted soils, indicating lower runoff and increased infiltration and deep percolation. In contrast, agricultural soils have slower infiltration rates, particularly in the upper horizon. Over the long term, agricultural conversion ...
