Mechanical aeration methods

The conventional (unaerated) windrow approach performs as well as or better than a mechanically aerated windrow method. [Pg.127]

Mechanical—a method in which the compost is continuously and mechanically mixed and aerated. (2) Ventilated cell— method where compost is mixed and aerated by being dropped through a vertical series of ventilated cells. (3) Windrow—an open-air method in which compostable material is placed in windrows, piles, or ventilated bins or pits and occasionally turned or mixed. The process may be anaerobic or aerobic. [Pg.75]

Foaming is often a problem in large-scale aerated systems. Antifoam cannot always be added for the reduction of foam because it may inhibit the growth of the microorganisms. However, there are several mechanical methods by which the foam can be broken up. [Pg.148]

It is a well-known fact that bubbles produced by mechanical force in electrolyte solutions are much smaller than those in pure water. This can be explained by reduction of the rate of bubble coalescence due to an electrostatic potential at the surface of aqueous electrolyte solutions. Thus, k a values in aerated stirred tanks obtained by the sulfite oxidation method are larger than those obtained by physical absorption into pure water, in the same apparatus, and at the same gas rate and stirrer speed [3]. Quantitative relationships between k a values and the ionic strength are available [4]. Recently published data on were obtained mostly by physical absorption or desorption with pure water. [Pg.198]

The FFE method is of great practical use to verify the level of mechanical treatment applied to ice cream mix during aeration and freezing. It also provides an indication of the storage stability and creaminess of the product tested27. [Pg.71]

The silver is dissolved from the ore by an aqueous solution of a salt, and then precipitated as metal or sulphide. The cyanide process2 is the most important of the lixiviation methods, its application having been considerably extended in recent years, especially in Mexico. The ore is very finely crushed with cyanide solution in a stamp-mill, and the sludge produced submitted to agitation and aeration in contact with cyanide solution. The liquid is separated from the ore by the aid of mechanical filters, and the silver precipitated from the clear solution by addition of zinc in the form of dust or shavings. The product is smelted with nitre, and is sometimes refined by blowing air through the molten mass. [Pg.291]

A recirculating methodology is an attempt to maintain the water quality of the test solution without altering the toxicant concentration. A filter may be used to remove waste products or some form of aeration may be used to maintain dissolved oxygen concentration at a specified level. The advantage of this system is the maintenance of the water quality of the test solution. Disadvantages include an increase in complexity, an uncertainty that the methods of water treatment do not alter the toxicant concentration, and the increased likelihood of mechanical failure. [Pg.45]

As a result of the mechanical action of mixing tools, turbulent or high intensity mixers do create fast moving, aerated, particulate matter systems. Therefore, interparticle collision and coalescence take place in a very similar fashion to that in suspended solids agglomerators. The main difference between the two methods is that in mixers particle movement is caused by mechanical forces while in suspended solids agglomerators drag forces induced by a flow of gas are the principal reason for movement of the bed of particulate matter, coalescence of particles, and agglomeration. [Pg.193]

Some recommended shoreline cleanup methods are natural recovery, manual removal, flooding or washing, use of vacuums, mechanical removal, tilling and aeration, sediment reworking or surf washing, and the use of sorbents or chemical cleaning agents. [Pg.172]

Much contaminated debris is incompatible with flail-type windrow aeration equipment used for composting due to its large size. Physical size reduction is an effective option for preparing the debris for compatibility with the windrow equipment. Crushing is a standard method to reduce the particle size of rock materials. The size-reduced debris would be returned to the composting system to reduce the explosives concentrations to the remedial action objective levels. The crushing process will use mechanical size reduction equipment to crush the large debris. [Pg.163]
