Removal of organic pollutants from landfill leachate by electrochemical oxidation - Assessment of performance and applicability in Northern Norway
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2020:396, Doctoral thesis, 2020)Landfill leachate treatment by advanced oxidation processes has gained much attention in the past decades. The removal of organic pollutants from landfill leachate in particular has been in focus due to their detrimental ... -
Indicators for Sustainable Demand Risk Allocation in Transport Infrastructure Projects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Efficient risk allocation has been proven to be at the heart of effective and efficient infrastructure project operation. While most risks may be reasonably assigned in transport infrastructure projects, demand risk remains ... -
Modeling of Water Age in the Drinking Water Distribution System of Trondheim Kommune
(Master thesis, 2020)Abstract: Drinking water provision is fundamental to human activities, and has major direct and indirect effects on society, economy and the environment. Drinking water quality is affected by raw water quality, as well ... -
Physical experiments on CPTU thin-layer effects of thin clay layers embedded in sand - With analysis and possible correction of cone resistance in layered profiles
(Master thesis, 2020)Abstract: The cone penetrometer is an excellent tool to characterize stratigraphy and have good abilities for parameter interpretation in homogenous soils. However, in soils with small layer thickness, in terms of cone ... -
Nutrient recovery from wastewater by crystallization - Improving the process efficiency, economics and product quality
