Determination of Volatile Organic Compounds in indoor air in the Gdansk area using permeation passive samplers.
PublicationDozymetria pasywna, znana od wielu lat, jest użytecznym narzędziem w monitoringu poziomu zanieczyszczeń. Do określenia jakości powietrza wewnętrznego w 22 pomieszczeniach mieszkalnych, zlakoalizowanych na terenie Gdańska, wykorzystano dozymetry pasywne typu permeacyjnego na etapie pobierania próbek analitów. Uzyskane wyniki porównano z wynikami uzyskanymi przy wykorzystaniu matedy dynamicznej. Podjęto również próbę identyfikacji...

Combining Computational Fluid Dynamics with a Biokinetic Model for Predicting Ammonia and Phosphate Behavior in Aeration Tanks
PublicationThe aim of this study was to use computational fluid dynamics for predicting the behavior of reactive pollutants (ammonia and phosphate) in the aerobic zone of the bioreactor located at the Wschod wastewater treatment plant in Gdansk, Poland. The one-dimensional advection-dispersion equation was combined with simple biokinetic models incorporating the Monod-type expressions as source terms for the two pollutants. The problem was...

The quality of sewage sludge stabilized for a long time in reed basins
PublicationThe aim of the work was to determine changes of long-term sewage sludge quality stabilized in reed basins from 7-15 years. The following parameters were evaluated: dry matter and organic matter concentration, nitrogen, phosphorus, and selected heavy metal (Cd, Ni, Pb, Cr, Cu, Zn) fractions. The material for the investigations was collected from 4 reed basin systems (utilisated sewage sludge) located in conventional WWTPs in Denmark...

Estimation of autotrophic maximum specific growth rate constant-experience from the long-term operation of a laboratory-scale Sequencing Batch Reactor System
PublicationW pracy wykorzystano wyniki badań z długookresowej eksploatacji laboratoryjnego reaktora typu SBR do estymacji stałej szybkości przyrostu bakterii nitryfikacyjnych. Badania obejmowały zarówno pomiary empiryczne (doświadczenia przy niskim stosunku substratu do biomasy) oraz symulacje komputerowe. Do symulacji dynamicznych wykorzystano jedną wartość współczynnika = 1,2 1/d, pomimo różnych wartości mierzonych jednostkowych szybkości...

Evaluation of surfactant and biosurfactant mixture usefulness in oil removal from soil, based on physicochemical studies and flushing experiments
PublicationZbadano aktywność powierzchniową i właściwości zwilżające surfaktantu niejonowego - Rokanolu NL6, biosurfaktantu - JBR 425 i ich mieszanin. Na podstawie tych badań określono zdolność tych surfaktantów do usuwania oleju syntetycznego (PAO 6) z piasku. Roztwory surfaktantów zostały użyte do przemywania złoża piaskowego w kolumnie oraz odmywania piasku metodą dynamiczną. Testy kolumnowe z roztworami Rokanolu NL6 i JBR 425 dały niskie...

Sorption of ionic liquids
PublicationCiecze jonowe przyciągają rosnącą uwagę a zakres ich potencjalnych zastosowań nieustannie się rozszerza. Aby ciecze jonowe mogły spełniać nie tylko wymagania technologiczne ale również wymagania odnośnie ochrony środwiska, ich oddziaływanie z poszczególnymi jego elementami powinno zostać poznane. Niniejsza publikacja zawiera szerokie studium literaturowe dotyczące oddziaływań cieczy jonowych z glebą. Ponadto przedstawiono wyniki...

Comparison of the Effects of Conventional and Alternative External Carbon Sources for Enhancing of the Denitrification Process
PublicationFood industry effluents are considered a potential alternative for methanol when seeking external carbon sources to enhance denitrification in municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). The aim of this study was to determine the immediate effects of dosing different carbon sources on the denitrification capability of process biomass from the "Wschod" WWTP in Gdansk (northern Poland). Five carbon sources, including settled wastewater,...

Towards a global historical emission inventory for selected PCB congeners - a mass balance approach. 3. An update
PublicationPoprzednie prace autorów zawierały bardzo istotne informacje do oceny stężeń związków polychlorobifenylowych (PCB) w rejonach oddalonych od dużych źródeł emisji tych związków jak i w środowisku globalnym. Okazało się, że niezbędna jest modyfikacja emisji PCB po roku 2000. Przedstawiono nowe dane o produkcji PCB w Polsce oraz nowe dane nt. składu chemicznego różnych produktów technicznych opartych na PCB. Ulepszono też metody oceny...

A geophysical, geochemical and microbiological study of a newly discovered pockmark with active gas seepage and submarine groundwater discharge (MET1-BH, central Gulf of Gdańsk, southern Baltic Sea)
PublicationHigh-resolution bathymetric data were collected with a multi-beam echosounder in the southern part of the Baltic Sea (region MET1, Gulf of Gdańsk) revealing the presence of a 10 m deep and 50 m in diameter pockmark (MET1-BH) on the sea bottom (78.7 m). To date, no such structures have been observed to reach this size in the Baltic Sea. The salinity of the near-bottom water in the pockmark was about 2 PSU (about 31.22 mmol/l...
