Research ArticleOpen accessUptake and Translocation of Iron by Native Tree Species In A Constructed Wetland Treating Landfill LeachatesA. Snow, A. E. Ghaly, R. Cote, A.M. SnowA surface flow wetland was constructed in the Burnside Industrial Park, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, to treat stormwater runoff from the surrounding watersheds which are comprised primarily of commercial properties and two former landfills. The objectives of this study were: (a) to compare the uptake of iron by red maple, white birch and red spruce trees growing under flooded soil conditions … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 6,868 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessUse of Barley for the Purification of Aquaculture Wastewater in a Hydroponics SystemA.M. Snow, A.E. GhalyBarley was examined for its ability to remove nutrients from aquaculture wastewater. The effects of seed sterilization using ethanol and bleach and seed density on germination and plant growth were investigated. Surface sterilization of barley seeds had a negative impact on germination. Increasing the ethanol concentration and/or the bleach concentration reduced the germination percentage. Barley seeds were first germinated in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,484 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEstablishment and Evaluation of the Vegetative Community in A Surface Flow Constructed Wetland Treating Industrial Park ContaminantsC.C. Galbrand, A.M. Snow, A.E. Ghaly, R. CôtéA surface flow constructed wetland, designed to curve in a kidney shape in order to increase the length to width ratio to 5:1 was used to treat runoff from an industrial park. A natural wetland system located approximately 200 m downstream of the constructed wetland was selected to act as the vegetative community model for the constructed wetland. The selected … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,574 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessThe Nutritive Value of Wastewater Grown Barley and its Utilization in Fish FeedA.M. Snow, A. E. GhalyThe feasibility of using wastewater grown barley plants as a component of fish feed was evaluated. The barley plants were grown in a hydroponics system on wastewater from a recirculating aquaculture facility. The effects of wastewater application rate on plant growth and pollution potential reduction were investigated. At the end of the experiment, the average crop heights and yields were … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,878 accessesView PDF Cite
