Denitrification

แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) The anoxic biological conversion of nitrate to nitrogen gas. It occurs naturally in surface waters low in oxygen, and it can be engineered in wastewater treatment systems.

Secondary treatment

แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) In wastewater treatment, the conversion of the suspended, colloidal and dissolved organics remaining after primary treatment into a microbial mass with is then removed in a second sedimentation process. Secondary treatment included both the biological process and the associated sedimentation process.

Saltwater intrusion

แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) The gradual replacement of freshwater by saltwater in coastal areas where excessive pumping of groundwater occurs.

CFCs

แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) Chlorofluorocarbons, chemicals which result in a depletion of the ozone layer in the upper atmosphere.

Hindered (Zone) settling

แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) Settling in which particle concentrations are sufficient that particles interfere with the settling of other particles. Particles settle together as a body or structure with the water required to traverse the particle interstices.

environment

แปลว่าสภาพแวดล้อม

Weak acid

แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) An acid that does not ionize completely under the conditions of interest. Examples include acetic acid, carbonic acid, and hypochlorous acid. See strong acid.

Aerobes

แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) Organisms which require molecular oxygen as an electron acceptor for energy production. See anaerobes.

Electrostatic precipitator

แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) A device which uses an electric field to trap particulate pollutants.

Total suspended solids

แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) (TSS) is the amount of suspended (filterable) matter in a water.

Reactive waste

แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) A waste which; 1) reacts violently with water, 2) forms potentially explosive mixtures with water, 3) is normally unstable, 4) contains cyanide or sulfide in sufficient quantity to evolve toxic fumes at high or low pH, 5) is capable of exploding if heated under pressure, or 6) is an explosive compound listed in Department of Transportation (DoT) regulations. One of EPA's four hazardous waste properties.

Secured landfill

แปลว่า(Environmental Engineering) A landfill which has containment measures such as liners and a leachate collection system so that materials placed in the landfill will not migrate into the surrounding soil, air and water.
