Proposed Standard for Sediment Control Products Being Developed by ASTM Soil and Rock Committee

2013-04-26 06:00:00| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today

ASTM WK11340, Test Method for Determination of Sediment Control Product’s Ability to Reduce Soil Loss Associated with Rainfall-Induced Erosion, will provide performance-based data of sediment control devices to regulating entities, specifiers, consumers and manufacturers. This proposed standard will offer means to calculate support practice factor (P factor), which would indicate how well sediment control device traps or filters sediment.

Idaho Statesman: The Army Corps of Engineer under law is supposed to maintain the lower Snake River navigation channel at 14 feet deep and 250 feet wide. In the draft EIS, the Corps is proposing a long-term plan to manage, and prevent if possible, river sediment deposition behind all four dams, Ice Harbor, Lower Monumental, Little Goose, and Lower Granite Locks and Dams. As I reported earlier, groups who seek removal of the four lower Snake Dams are using this process to push their point that not only is their...

BinMaster Sediment Vibrating Rod Measures Solid Material Under Water

2013-03-11 03:12:43| chemicalonline News Articles

BinMaster Level Controlsannounces a newvibrating rod for sediment level detectiondesigned to measure the level of solid material that has settled in a tank containing liquids. It is used to detect when a layer of solid material reaches a specific level in a tank. The vibrating rod vibrates in water and then stops vibrating when the solid material reaches the level of the probe. When wired to a horn or alarm panel, personnel are alerted when the sediment has reached the probe and the sediment needs to be removed from the tank
