D1d E-USE(Aq) Technical Performance & Monitoring Report
D1d E-USE(aq) Technical performance & monitoring report Danish pilot 1 Summary Danish Pilot in Birkerød The site Hammerbakken 10 in Birkerød, Denmark is highly polluted with chlorinated solvents, especially TCE is a dominant contaminant. In laboratory studies by Environmental Technology Wageningen University it was shown that biodegradation of chlorinated solvents could be stimulated at low redox conditions at elevated temperatures like in ATES systems. The hot spot contaminated site at Hammerbakken 10 was selected by the Capital Region of Denmark (CRD) to demonstrate the stimulation of biodegradation of chlorinated solvents at pilot scale. The pilot was realized by the end of December 2017 and monitored thereafter in 2018. The ATES recirculation systems showed to operate as expected, whereas biodegradation was not stimulated in the first 6 months, as the redox was too oxic to allow biodegradation of chlorinated solvents. In June, electron donor was added to lower the redox. After July the first reductive dechlorination was monitored up to 30% dechlorination. However only DCE was formed and no significant other products as VC and finally ethene were formed. In early November a DHC culture was added, which readily resulted in a high dechlorination degree of already about 78% in monitoring well 1 within 2 weeks. Until March 2019 the wells will be further monitored for the reductive dechlorination of chlorinated solvent (mainly TCE). From the pilot experiment in 2018 it can be concluded that the ATES system as such functioned well without clogging by the presence of measurable oxygen concentrations in the first half year of operation. The applied ATES system showed to be fit to stimulate biodegradation of chlorinated solvents at optimized conditions like addition of electron donor and addition of a specific dechlorinating culture. -

Ringbanen – En Ny, Tværgående Bybane
Ringbanen – en ny, tværgående bybane Ringbanen EN BANE PÅ TVÆRS MED NYE FORBINDELSER Ringbanen bliver en ny, tværgående linie på det storkøben- havnske S-banenet. Hér får passagererne mulighed for hurtigt og bekvemt at skifte til de andre S-togslinier, og der bliver gode omstigningsmuligheder til busser, regionaltog på Hellerup Station (Kystbanen) og Ny Ellebjerg Station (Øresundsbanen) samt Metroen på Flintholm Station. Ringbanen er på ca. 11,5 km. Den består dels af den hidtidige Ydre Bybane mellem Hellerup og Grøndal og dels af en nyan- lagt bane. Fra Hellerup til Grøndal Station har Banestyrelsen udskiftet den eksisterende bane totalt med nyt underlag, Mod Farum Mod Hillerød Mod Klampenborg Mod Helsingør Eksisterende Ringbane Ringbane under bygning Hellerup Mod Frederikssund Ryparken Bispebjerg Nørrebro Fuglebakken C.

Functional Allocation and Door Control of ATO for the Korean Radio-Based Train Control System
Recent Advances in Circuits, Systems and Automatic Control Functional Allocation and Door Control of ATO for the Korean Radio-based Train Control System MIN-SOO KIM, YONG-KI YOON, SEH-CHAN OH and YONG-KYU KIM Radio-based Train Control Research Team, Korea Railroad Research Institute 360-1 Woram-dong, Uiwang-si, Gyeonggi-do, 437-757, KOREA [email protected] http://www.krri.re.kr Abstract: - The Communication Based Train Control (CBTC) performs train position report immediately and movement authority transmission through wireless communications between a wayside control center and on- board vehicle computers. And it has effect of increasing the railway capacity by allowing the high-density train control through a high capacity of information transmission between the on-board and the wayside. Also, it reduces the maintenance cost because it does not use the existing track circuits. The Automatic Train Protection (ATP)/ Automatic Train Operation (ATO) is fundamental train control system for driverless operation in urban rail and metro rail, and it is important role in the communications based train control system. Especially, the ATO acts as a key role for automatic operation in urban rail with short distance between stations stopping and frequently stops. This paper describes the door control including platform screen door (PSD) and functional allocation of ATO which is responsible for the automatic operation and the door control as a subsystem of the Korean Radio-based Train Control System (KRTCS). Key-Words: - Korean Radio-based Train Control System, Automatic Train Operation, Door Control, Automatic Train Protection 1 Introduction offers safety and conveniences of passengers Railway systems are group of individuals with through the safe operations such as an accurate stop vehicles, tracks and signals, and therefore the on the station, train door/Platform Screen Door effective interaction among the subsystems is a core (PSD) controlling, and so on. -

Installation of Platform Screen Doors for the MTR Airport Express Line and Tung Chung Line in Hong Kong
Together we engineer a better Asia Installation of Platform Screen Doors for the MTR Airport Express Line and Tung Chung Line in Hong Kong Developer MTR Corporation JEC Scope Installation of platform screen doors at the platforms of Airport Express Line & Tung Chung Line Location Hong Kong Project Completion Date 1998 Jardine Engineering Corporation (JEC) installed Hong Kong's first platform screen doors on a number of stations for the Mass Transit Railway (MTR). This was one of the first time this equipment had been installed the region. JEC installed the platform screen doors of over 4km linear length at 10 stations for the Airport Express and the Tung Chung Lines: a) Airport Express Line: Airport, Tsing Yi, Kowloon and Hong Kong Stations b) Tung Chung Line: Tung Chung, Tsing Yi, Lai King, Olympic, Kowloon and Hong Kong Stations Purpose of Screen Doors There are many advantages to installing platform screen doors. The platform-long screen doors also provide a physical separation between the tracks and platform to enhance passengers’ safety. It also reduces noise created when a train is approaching the platform. The screen doors significantly improve the station environment by preventing the escape of air- conditioned air. This reduces the loading to the railway's environmental control system and in turn reduces energy consumption. The introduction of screen doors to the Airport Express and Tung Chung Lines was a success and the technology has been extended to a large number of MTR stations in Hong Kong. The technology provides a better transportation environment for MTR passengers. Jardine Engineering Corporation www.jec.com T011-0510H. -

Platform–Train Interface for Rail Passengers – a Technology Review
Platform–train interface for rail passengers – a technology review Platform–train interface for rail passengers – technology review DOCUMENT CONTROL SHEET Document: Final report CRC for Rail Innovation Title: Platform–train interface for rail passengers – technology review Old Central Station, 290 Ann St, Brisbane QLD 4000 Project Leader: Dr Dhamodharan Raman Authors: Rajkumar Devadoss, Shan Sanjar Ahmad and Dr Dhamodharan GPO Box 1422 Raman Brisbane Qld 4001 Project no: R3.115 Tel: +61 7 3221 2536 Fax: +61 7 3235 2987 Project name: Platform access www.railcrc.net.au Synopsis: The main purpose of this report is to review the solutions available in the public domain to address the platform gap issues of passenger rail operations in Australia. Passengers, in particular passengers with reduced mobility (including the disabled and aged people), experience difficulties in accessing railway platforms primarily due to the lack of suitable technologies or to the intrinsic design limits of platforms and rolling stock. A feasible, robust and cost-effective engineering solution is required to overcome this critical platform access issue. Various patented solutions and other solutions that are used worldwide are discussed briefly in the report. In addition, a couple of new solutions are designed and suggested in the report. Considering the lack of detailed information about the existing solutions, a basic qualitative analysis was conducted to rank the solutions. This analysis was conducted with respect to various factors, including costs involved, ease of implementation, applicability of the solutions for different platform setups, and operational safety. Most of the solutions discussed in the report are designed for high level platforms, and only cater for horizontal gaps.
