Effect Of The C-Source And Cod/N On Nitrite And Partial Nitrate Denitrification, Ahmed Fathy Elyas Badia
Effect Of The C-Source And Cod/N On Nitrite And Partial Nitrate Denitrification, Ahmed Fathy Elyas Badia
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
The main objectives of this study were: (i) to investigate dynamic specific denitrification rates (SDNR) from nitrite at various chemical oxygen demand (COD) / nitrogen (N) ratios using municipal wastewater (MWW) and acetate, and to study the kinetic parameters, (ii) to investigate the dynamic specific denitrification rates (SDNRs) from nitrite at various COD/N ratios in a system that uses methanol as a complementary carbon source, and studying the effect in case if nitrate replaced nitrite, and (iii) to investigate and compare between the nitrite shunt and N-PDN-anammox technologies through studying the dynamic specific denitrification rates (SDNRs) from nitrate and nitrite …

Machine Learning Prediction Of Mechanical And Durability Properties Of Recycled Aggregates Concrete, Itzel Rosalia Nunez Vargas
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Whilst recycled aggregate (RA) can alleviate the environmental footprint of concrete production and the landfilling of colossal amounts of demolition waste, there need for robust predictive tools for its effects on mechanical and durability properties. In this thesis, state-of-the-art machine learning (ML) models were deployed to predict properties of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). A systematic review was performed to analyze pertinent ML techniques previously applied in the concrete technology field. Accordingly, three different ML methods were selected to determine the compressive strength of RAC and perform mixture proportioning optimization. Furthermore, a gradient boosting regression tree was used to study the …
