BWRs do not operate with dissolved boron like a PWR but use pure, demineralized water with a continuous water quality control system. The reactivity is controlled by the large number of control rods (>100) containing burnable neutron poisons, and by varying the flow rate through the reactor for normal, fine control. Two recirculation loops using variable speed recirculation pumps inject water into the jet pumps inside of the reactor vessel to increase the flow rate by several times over that in the recirculation loops. The steam bubble formation reduces the moderator density and...

Regulatory status In 1998, Lopez Canyon Sanitary Landfill received conditional approval for an ET cover, which required a minimum of 2 years of field performance data to validate the model used for the design. An analysis was conducted and provided the basis for final regulatory approval of the ET cover. The cover was fully approved in October 2002 by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board—Los Angeles Region. 

The water temperature and thermal behaviour of the reservoirs of Mequinensa and Riba-roja have been dealt with in different studies and reports. These include water quality controls commissioned by the Ebro River Authority, the CHE [36-39], some study by the Catalan Water Authority, the ACA [42], several degree and PhD thesis at the Technical School of Civil Engineering of Barcelona [43—48] and research projects aimed to study the dispersion of the zebra mussel Dreissena polymorpha [40, 41]. However, the reservoir with the most information available regarding its thermal behaviour is the reservoir of Riba-roja as it has received an important research effort because of the invasion of zebra mussel. 

The rate of adsorption from dilute aqueous solutions by solid adsorbents (zeolites) is a highly significant factor for applications of this process for water quality control.

The XAD procedure was selected on the basis of the comparison of results of complementary methods as mentioned earlier because it is effective in concentrating toxic as well as mutagenic compounds from Rhine water. The investigation demonstrates the application of short-cut biological methods needed for water quality control and complementary to chemical monitoring techniques.

Abatement by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Central Valley Region, has included ditches to divert surface water from the mine workings, a seal at the mine adit, and operation of a pilot mine wastewater treatment plant to remove residual toxic heavy metals as part of contingency planning.

This program was carried out with the generous assistance of many individuals at the several rainfall collection sites along the California coast. The storm alerts and the quantitative descriptions of the storms studied were carried out by Einar L. Hovind of North American Weather Consultants, Inc., Goleta, Calif. The radiochemical analyses were performed in the water quality control radioactivity laboratory under the supervision of Gerald H. Hamada. 

Martin Jekel, Professor of Water Quality Control at the Technical University Berlin, has been involved in ozonation and oxidation research since 1976, especially concerning ozone/ biological activated carbon, microflocculation mechanisms of ozone and advanced oxidation processes for water and wastewaters. He studied chemistry, has a Ph.D. in chemical engineering and is a full professor since 1988. He contributed Chapter A 3 to this book.

Tanaka and Fritz [19] applied this procedure to the determination of bicarbonate or carbon dioxide in some potable water samples. Fig. 9.2 shows the ion exclusion chromatograms obtained before and after a softening treatment. The results indicated that the method is useful in the field of water quality control of water treatment facilities.
