Conceptual Design of Submarine Outfalls - I: Jet Diffusion

Abstract

Effective utilization of the ocean for natural purification of sewage effluent depends on good jet mixing and oceanic convection and diffusion. Important factors are ocean currents, density stratification, bacterial die off, and the use of multiple-jet diffusers.
