Experimental research of biogas yield and quality produced from chicken manure
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)Biogas is a fuel, which can be produced from a renewable energy source – biomass. Such a gas can be freely used in small farms or food industry to produce heat or electricity. Two main components of biogas – metahne CH4 ... -
Experimental study of droplet biofilter packed with green sphagnum
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)Air cleaning from VOC (volatile organic compunds) group of contaminants could be done by using different types of methods: adsoption, absorption, chemical or thermal oxidation. However, the most promising method is bio ... -
Heavy metals leaching of MSWI bottom ash: effect of short-term natural weathering
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)Municipal solid wastes incineration (MSWI) is an important part of the waste management systems in many European countries. Incineration process generates two main by roducts: fly ash (FA) and bottom ash (BA). Bottom ash ... -
Heavy metals uptake by trees near a waste incinerator
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)Incinerators produce energy burning virtually everything including waste, but emit pollutants such as heavy metals and carbon monoxide (CO). These substances can be uptaken by trees through their roots, leaves or stems. ... -
The influence of neogene lithology on the Šventoji river hydrologic regime
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)Due to the recently increasing frequency of extreme changes in river runoff regime, scientific literature deals with the characteristics of runoff formation. Works are carried out in analyzing climate changes and a lot of ... -
Integrated evaluation of road transport pollution impact on the urban air
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)With the number of vehicles increasing, the analysis of urban air pollution becomes expedient. This article deals with the integrated evaluation of road transport realised pollutant impact on the urban air. During research, ... -
Investigating recycled filter media in order to remove fluoride compounds from groundwater
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)In this article, an enhanced recycled filter media for the removal of fluoride compounds from groundwater via filtration process was investigated. Experiments were made to investigate the influence of recycled filter media ... -
Investigation and evaluation of speed table influence on road traffic induced Ground borne vibration
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)Vertical Speed Control Measures are vertical elevated segments of roadway that require a vehicle to slow. Typical vertical speed control measures include speed humps, speed tables, raised sidewalks and raised intersections. ... -
Investigation and modeling of manganese concentration in the gravel roadside
(10th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2017), 2017)Road transport is one of the biggest soil polluter. There are a lot of investigations of soil pollution near highways, but soil pollution near gravel roadsides needs more experimental research. In this experimental study ... -
