Anaerobic Digestion Of Brewery Waste Including Spent Yeast And Hops, Dhanashree Rawalgaonkar Jun 2023

Anaerobic Digestion Of Brewery Waste Including Spent Yeast And Hops, Dhanashree Rawalgaonkar

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Florida is home to more than 300 craft breweries, that brew over a million barrels of beer annually. Brewing is an energy intensive process and produces large quantities of high strength waste including spent grains, yeast, hops, and high strength wastewater. Brewery wastewater, and spent yeast have high Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) concentrations between 5000 mg/L – 10,000 mg/L, and 200,000 mg/L – 300,000 mg/L respectively. Brewery effluent wastewater is sent to Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs) which implement high surcharges based on the strength of brewery effluent (COD concentration). While some of the spent yeast and hops can be …


Research On Stability Of Rock Mass And +30 Level Surface Construction Works When Re-Exploiting The Seam H10 At Mong Duong Coal Mine, Vietnam, Tien Trung Vu, Doan Viet Dao Jun 2023

Research On Stability Of Rock Mass And +30 Level Surface Construction Works When Re-Exploiting The Seam H10 At Mong Duong Coal Mine, Vietnam, Tien Trung Vu, Doan Viet Dao

Journal of Sustainable Mining

The re-exploitation of coal seams located near the ground is one of the solutions to increase output, reduce mining investment costs, and avoid wasting coal resources. The re-exploitation of coal seams will also cause instability of the surrounding rock mass and may affect surface construction works. Through the process of re-exploiting the longwall in seam H10 at Mong Duong Coal Mine, the authors have studied and evaluated the stability of the rock mass and +30 level surface works (including fan station and gateroad). To achieve the results in this study, the numerical simulation model method and the analytical method were …

Evaluating The Post-Mining Land Uses Of Former Mine Sites For Sustainable Purposes In South Africa, Sphiwe E Mhlongo Jun 2023

Evaluating The Post-Mining Land Uses Of Former Mine Sites For Sustainable Purposes In South Africa, Sphiwe E Mhlongo

Journal of Sustainable Mining

This paper uses a case study of an abandoned magnesite mine in the Limpopo Province of South Africa to find ways of identifying post-mining land used from the current uses of the abandoned mine sites or features. The approach used involved carrying out a field characterization of the mine site and documentation of the current uses of the features of the abandoned mine site. The technique used to identify the internal and external factors of the land uses involved analyzing their Strength, Weakness, Opportunities, and Threats. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique was used for further ranking of the land …


Reasons Why Oil Reserves Remain Unproductive-A Case Study, Mohamed Al-Saho Jun 2023

Reasons Why Oil Reserves Remain Unproductive-A Case Study, Mohamed Al-Saho

Journal of the Arab American University مجلة الجامعة العربية الامريكية للبحوث

By studying the production plans of some wells of Al Furat Petroleum Company, the researcher noticed that the rate of production increases to reach a peak and then falls back sharply. The deformation of the area around the well due to the decrease in the formation pressure (after production for a certain period) may have caused a change in the storage properties (porosity, permeability) and thus lower production rate. However, from the point of view of the geomechanics of the oil formation, which includes the study of the stress situation and its effect on the rock tissue, we will notice …


Identify The Most Productive Crop To Encourage Sustainable Farming Methods In Smart Farming Using Neutrosophic Environment, Ahmed Abdelhafeez, Hadeer Mahmoud, Alber S. Aziz Jun 2023

Identify The Most Productive Crop To Encourage Sustainable Farming Methods In Smart Farming Using Neutrosophic Environment, Ahmed Abdelhafeez, Hadeer Mahmoud, Alber S. Aziz

Neutrosophic Systems with Applications

Only with careful management can the data provided by crops be used to make smart, profitable choices. Data has become the central ingredient in contemporary agriculture, and the recent advancements in handling it are contributing greatly to the meteoric rise of smart farming. Gains in efficiency and longevity may be realized to a significant degree by using the objective data collected by sensors. These data-driven farms can maximize output while minimizing waste and environmental impact thanks to the information they collect and analyze. Various criteria and factors in smart farming can aid in productivity. Sensors, drones, Global Positioning System (GPS) …

Refill Friction Stir Fastener Repair In Aa7050-T7451, Andrew John Curtis Jun 2023

Refill Friction Stir Fastener Repair In Aa7050-T7451, Andrew John Curtis

Theses and Dissertations

The majority of Refill Friction Stir Spot Welding (RFSSW) is used to join two materials together oriented in a lap joint configuration. In this study, RFSSW was investigated and tested using an unconventional configuration setup, a hole/plug insertion approach. RFSSW was tested as a means of repairing a cracked rivet hole due to excessive use conditions. This was done by inserting a plug into a hole and using the RFSSW process to bond the plug to the base material. Machine and tool limits were investigated to determine if a refilled plug repair was possible and if complete mixing between plug/hole …


Cesium Voltilization In Lif-Bef2: Predicting Release In The Event Of Fhr Fuel Failure, Johnny Hedrick Williams Jun 2023

Cesium Voltilization In Lif-Bef2: Predicting Release In The Event Of Fhr Fuel Failure, Johnny Hedrick Williams

Theses and Dissertations

This work demonstrates how ICP-MS can be employed to evaluate cesium volatilization from LiF-BeF2 (Flibe) salt with ab initio molecular dynamics studies used as corroborating data to better understand cesium behavior. Using mixtures of Flibe with 2 mol% CsF, it was found that cesium was stable within the salt melt at temperatures between 500-650°C over a time span of 8 hours. At 800°C, cesium vaporized from the salt at a rate of 0.83% / hr with a mass flux of 0.0023 g Cs / cm2hr. The atomistic modeling results show poor solvation of Cs at 500°C and 800°C, with stability …


Exploring Alternative Electron Donors For Heterotrophic Denitrification At A Water Reclamation Facility In Tampa Bay, Tejas Athavale Jun 2023

Exploring Alternative Electron Donors For Heterotrophic Denitrification At A Water Reclamation Facility In Tampa Bay, Tejas Athavale

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

An excess of nitrogen in water can pose problems, ranging from algal blooms to creating toxic environments for marine life. Therefore, wastewater treatment plants need to remove nitrogen from wastewater during the treatment process. Biological nitrogen removal is one process these plants may use, which commonly involves nitrification and denitrification, converting nitrogen in the form of ammonia to nitrate, and then ultimately nitrogen gas. The process of denitrification often requires an electron donor, and methanol is a common choice. However, it is flammable, and therefore there is a need to explore alternative electron donors. Alternative donors can include manufactured chemicals …


Characteristics And Hydraulic Behavior Of Adsorptive Media For Use In Permeable Reactive Barriers, Shelby Rocha Jun 2023

Characteristics And Hydraulic Behavior Of Adsorptive Media For Use In Permeable Reactive Barriers, Shelby Rocha

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The Cargill ditch is located on the property of Se7en Wetlands, a 1600-ac treatment wetland system in Lakeland, Polk County, Florida. The Se7en Wetlands property was previously utilized for phosphate mining prior to the construction of the system. Nonpoint nutrient sources derived from remnants of abandoned phosphate mines – known as “legacy phosphorus” – become mobilized by stormwater runoff and impair surface water bodies by promoting harmful algal blooms (HABs). Thus, the Cargill ditch likely conveys nutrient rich flow resulting from legacy phosphorus and is thought to be one contributing factor in the occurrence of HABs within the treatment wetland …
