• Modeling and Calibration of Drainage Denitrification Bioreactor Design Criteria

  Journal of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering · 2013-04-04 · 30 citations

  articleSenior author

  Design methods for agricultural drainage denitrification bioreactors must be optimized for these novel systems to provide maximized water quality improvement. The objective of this paper was to further develop science-based bioreactor sizing guidelines by calibrating an existing design procedure with multiple years of drainage flow data collected at two sites in Iowa. The models created for the two hypothetical bioreactor sites showed the original design criteria (use of a design flow rate one-f…

• Evaluation of bioremediation effectiveness on sediments Contaminated with industrial wastes

  International Journal on Environmental Sciences · 2010-01-01 · 14 citations

  article

  A treatability study was conducted to determine the most effective bioremediation strategies for the decontamination of sediments dredged from industrially polluted Gandigudem Lake. Microcosm experiments were performed with the addition of a microbial consortium and nutrients. The performance of each treatment was examined by monitoring biological parameters such as basal respiration, microbial biomass carbon (Cmic), metabolic quotient (qCO2), Cmic/TOC ratio, dehydrogenase activity, and phytotox…

• Bioreactor Design Geometry Effects on Nitrate Removal

  2010-01-01 · 8 citations

  articleOpen accessSenior author

  Denitrification bioreactors for nitrate removal in agricultural drainage have recently gained attention for their low cost and effectiveness. While research continues to investigate the optimal sizing of these systems, little work has been done on the optimal design geometry (Length to width ratio and cross sectional shape). To address this lack, pilot-scale (1/10th scale) work performed in Iowa during the summer of 2009 explored three shapes of potential bioreactor designs. The objective was to…

• Preparing Students to Work Effectively as Members of Interdisciplinary Design Teams

  2017-09-25

  book-chapter1st authorCorresponding

  This chapter explores the learning science associated with the education of engineering students as members of interdisciplinary design teams. Engineering students often work in teams on engineering laboratory experiments and in design classes. The growing complexities of modern "real-world" problems faced by industry, government, and universities have given rise to the need for interdisciplinary teams. Learning that may be essential for innovation often takes place as interdisciplinar…

• PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF AMORPHOUS CEFUROXIME AXETIL

  INDIAN DRUGS · 2013-10-28

  articleSenior author

  In the present study, amorphous form of cefuroxime axetil was prepared and characterized by various methods. The result showed that the amorphous form of cefuroxime axetil with hydrophilic carriers was successfully obtained by freeze drying. The amorphous form showed a substantially higher dissolution rate and saturation solubility than cefuroxime axetil and physical mixture. The molecular behaviour of the drug in all samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transformed in…
