Is Biodegradability a Desirable Attribute for Discarded Solid Waste? Perspectives from a National Landfill Greenhouse Gas Inventory Model
Environmental Science & Technology, 45(13), 5470–5476.
MeSH headings : Biodegradation, Environmental; Carbon Dioxide / analysis; Computer Simulation; Garbage; Greenhouse Effect; Methane / analysis; Models, Theoretical; Paper; Polyesters; Refuse Disposal / standards
TL;DR:
A landfill life-cycle model was developed to represent the behavior of MSW components and new materials disposed in a landfill representative of the U.S. average with respect to gas collection and utilization over a range of environmental conditions and Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-Hydroxyoctanoate) (PHBO) was selected as illustrative for an emerging biodegradable polymer.

Observations on the methane oxidation capacity of landfill soils
WASTE MANAGEMENT, 31(5), 914–925.
MeSH headings : Air Pollutants / analysis; Air Pollutants / metabolism; Air Pollution / statistics & numerical data; Environmental Monitoring; Methane / analysis; Methane / metabolism; Oxidation-Reduction; Refuse Disposal / statistics & numerical data; Soil / chemistry; Soil Microbiology
TL;DR:
The data indicate that an effective way to increase the % oxidation of a landfill cover is to limit the amount of CH(4) delivered to it, which should not be considered as a constant value.

Evidence for Fat, Oil, and Grease (FOG) Deposit Formation Mechanisms in Sewer Lines
ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, 45(10), 4385–4391.
Contributors: X. He n, M. Iasmin n, L. Dean n, S. Lappi n, J. Ducoste n & F. De Los Reyes n
MeSH headings : Dietary Fats / analysis; Drainage, Sanitary; Environmental Monitoring; Food Industry; Industrial Waste / analysis; Sewage / analysis; Sewage / chemistry; Spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis
TL;DR:
It is proposed that the formation of FOG deposits occurs from the aggregation of excess calcium compressing the double layer of free fatty acid micelles and a saponification reaction between aggregated calcium and free fatty acids.

Event-Based Modeling of Driver Yielding Behavior at Unsignalized Crosswalks
JOURNAL OF TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING, 137(7), 455–465.
author keywords: Pedestrians; Logistic regression; Yielding; Crosswalks; Modeling; Microscopic
TL;DR:
The analysis suggests that drivers are more likely to yield to assertive pedestrians who walk briskly in their approach to the crosswalk, and the yield probability is reduced with higher speeds, deceleration rates and if vehicles are traveling in platoons.

Absorbing boundary conditions for time harmonic wave propagation in discretized domains
COMPUTER METHODS IN APPLIED MECHANICS AND ENGINEERING, 200(33-36), 2483–2497.
author keywords: Artificial boundary conditions; Perfectly matched layers; Discrete absorbing boundary conditions; Wave propagation; Helmholtz equation
TL;DR:
It is shown that the discrete system (mesh) can be stretched in a non-trivial way to preserve the discrete impedance at the interface, resulting in a PML-type ABC for discrete media.

Characterization of natural organic matter adsorption in granular activated carbon adsorbers
WATER RESEARCH, 45(13), 3951–3959.
Contributors: S. Velten*, D. Knappe n, J. Traber*, H. Kaiser*, U. Gunten *, M. Boller *, S. Meylan*
author keywords: Adsorption; Granular activated carbon; Natural organic matter (NOM); NOM characterization; Size exclusion chromatography
MeSH headings : Adsorption; Charcoal / chemistry; Chromatography, Gel; Organic Chemicals / chemistry; Organic Chemicals / isolation & purification; Water Pollutants, Chemical / chemistry; Water Pollutants, Chemical / isolation & purification; Water Purification / methods
TL;DR:
In both GAC adsorbers, adsorbability of the remaining NOM fractions, compared on the basis of partition coefficients, increased with decreasing molecular size, suggesting that increasingly larger portions of the internal GAC surface area could be accessed as the size of NOM decreased.

Quantitative determination of fluorochemicals in municipal landfill leachates
CHEMOSPHERE, 82(10), 1380–1386.
author keywords: Fluorochemicals; Perfluorochemicals; Landfill leachate; PFOA; PFBA; PFOS
MeSH headings : Alkanesulfonic Acids / analysis; Caprylates / analysis; Chromatography, Liquid; Environmental Monitoring / methods; Fluorocarbons / analysis; Fluorocarbons / chemistry; Refuse Disposal; Solid Phase Extraction; Tandem Mass Spectrometry; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis; Water Pollutants, Chemical / chemistry; Water Pollution, Chemical / statistics & numerical data
