Creator | Singh, Rajneesh D'Alessio, Matteo Meneses, Yulie Bartelt-Hunt, Shannon L. Woodbury, Brian Ray, Chittaranjan |
Description | The objective of this study was to treat feedlot runoff by developing an ecologically sustainable, affordable, and resilient treatment system having a relatively long life span. Three horizontal flow soil biofilters were utilized in this study: 1) without earthworms and plants (Biofilter (BF)), 2) with earthworms only (Vermifilter (VF)), and 3) with earthworms and plants (Macrophyte Assisted Vermifilter (MAVF)). The experiments were conducted with a hydraulic retention time of four days using... |
