Wireless Underground Communications In Sewer And Stormwater Overflow Monitoring: Radio Waves Through Soil And Asphalt Medium, Usman Raza, Abdul Salam Feb 2020

Wireless Underground Communications In Sewer And Stormwater Overflow Monitoring: Radio Waves Through Soil And Asphalt Medium, Usman Raza, Abdul Salam

Faculty Publications

Storm drains and sanitary sewers are prone to backups and overflows due to extra amount wastewater entering the pipes. To prevent that, it is imperative to efficiently monitor the urban underground infrastructure. The combination of sensors system and wireless underground communication system can be used to realize urban underground IoT applications, e.g., storm water and wastewater overflow monitoring systems. The aim of this article is to establish a feasibility of the use of wireless underground communications techniques, and wave propagation through the subsurface soil and asphalt layers, in an underground pavement system for storm water and sewer overflow monitoring application. …


Desarrollo De Un Esquema De Gestión Hídrica En El Sistema Acuífero Sap 3.1 Apoyado De La Tipificación De Suelos Y El Modelo Conceptual De Thöt, Maria Camila Soriano Espinosa, Camilo José Rodríguez Carvajal Jan 2020

Desarrollo De Un Esquema De Gestión Hídrica En El Sistema Acuífero Sap 3.1 Apoyado De La Tipificación De Suelos Y El Modelo Conceptual De Thöt, Maria Camila Soriano Espinosa, Camilo José Rodríguez Carvajal

Ingeniería Ambiental y Sanitaria

El presente proyecto tiene como objetivo principal desarrollar un esquema de gestión hídrica (EGH) en el sistema acuífero SAP 3.1, provincia llanos orientales, con base en la tipificación de suelos y el modelo conceptual de Tӧth, partiendo de que las aguas subterráneas se consideran una fuente alternativa de abastecimiento por su mejor calidad y el bajo costo de manejo en comparación al agua superficial, y teniendo en cuenta que el Departamento del Meta conoce la riqueza hídrica que está en su jurisdicción, no cuenta con una regulación adecuada en pro de una gestión hídrica a nivel subterráneo. La metodología empleada …


Internet Of Things For Sustainable Mining, Abdul Salam Jan 2020

Internet Of Things For Sustainable Mining, Abdul Salam

Faculty Publications

The sustainable mining Internet of Things deals with the applications of IoT technology to the coupled needs of sustainable recovery of metals and a healthy environment for a thriving planet. In this chapter, the IoT architecture and technology is presented to support development of a digital mining platform emphasizing the exploration of rock–fluid–environment interactions to develop extraction methods with maximum economic benefit, while maintaining and preserving both water quantity and quality, soil, and, ultimately, human health. New perspectives are provided for IoT applications in developing new mineral resources, improved management of tailings, monitoring and mitigating contamination from mining. Moreover, tools …
