Dispelling the "Nocardia amarae" myth: a phylogenetic and phenotypic study of mycolic acid-containing actinomycetes isolated from activated sludge foam. (2002)
Journal Article
Stainsby, F. M., Soddell, J. A., Seviour, R. J., Upton, J., & Goodfellow, M. (2002). Dispelling the "Nocardia amarae" myth: a phylogenetic and phenotypic study of mycolic acid-containing actinomycetes isolated from activated sludge foam. Water Science and Technology, 46, 81-90

Right-angle branched filaments and rods micromanipulated from activated sludge foam and mixed liquor were identified as putatively novel members of the genera Gordonia, Mycobacterium and Rhodococcus using a combination of chemical, molecular and morp...

An investigation of techniques to identify the causes of foaming in activated sludge waste water. (2001)
Thesis
Elliott, J. N. An investigation of techniques to identify the causes of foaming in activated sludge waste water. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/4874

Wastewater activated sludge treatment plants are among the most common
forms of biotechnological application. These plants breakdown influents of
organic and non-organic matter using a complex bacterial consortia in an
aerobic aqueous suspension.... Read More about An investigation of techniques to identify the causes of foaming in activated sludge waste water..

An Integrated approach to street canyon pollution modelling. (2000)
Journal Article
Addison, P. S., Currie, J., Low, D. J., & McCann, J. M. (2000). An Integrated approach to street canyon pollution modelling. Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 65, 333-342. https://doi.org/10.1023/A%3A1006400406047

An integrated method for the prediction of the spatial pollution distribution within a
street canyon directly from a microscopic traffic simulation model is outlined. The traffic
simulation package Paramics is used to model the flow of vehicles in... Read More about An Integrated approach to street canyon pollution modelling..

Effectiveness of simple ventilation strategies and partitioning in mitigating the effects of passive smoking (1999)
Journal Article
Kolokotroni, M., Perera, M. D. A. E. S., Palmer, J., Currie, J., Capper, G., & Watkins, R. (1999). Effectiveness of simple ventilation strategies and partitioning in mitigating the effects of passive smoking. Building Services Engineering Research and Technology, 20(2), 93-98. https://doi.org/10.1177/014362449902000208

Pubs, bars and restaurants are places where smoking policy is still left to the discretion of the manager and where smoking is often permitted. However, there is demand to take measures to eliminate or reduce the effects of environmental tobacco smok...

An experimental investigation of outflow of liquids from single-outlet vessels (1995)
Journal Article
Schmidt, O., & Kubie, J. (1995). An experimental investigation of outflow of liquids from single-outlet vessels. International Journal of Multiphase Flow, 21(6), 1163-1168. https://doi.org/10.1016/0301-9322%2895%2900051-x

This paper considers the outflow of a liquid from a single outlet vessel, i.e. a vessel in which the outflowing liquid is displaced by another fluid which enters the vessel through the same opening. The simplest possible arrangement is investigated:... Read More about An experimental investigation of outflow of liquids from single-outlet vessels.
