1.
Create a miniature UST system:
As part of this project, students can create a model of a UST system to better understand the creation, installation, and maintenance procedures. To choose the best UST system for their assignment, students can begin by investigating the various types of UST systems. Finally, they can use CAD software and 3D printing technology to create the tank, pipe, and pumping systems. Finally, students can assemble the various components and test their system for functionality.
2.
Provide a tool for UST system monitoring: To make sure UST systems are operating properly and preventing environmental dangers, they must be regularly inspected. As part of this project, students can create a monitoring device that measures different values, including tank level, pressure, temperature, and flow rate. It is possible to connect the monitoring tool to a cloud-
based platform, which notifies the user if any parameter exceeds the predetermined threshold. To assist the user in improving the performance of their UST system, the monitoring tool can also
produce reports and insights.
3.
Investigate the impact of UST system location on groundwater quality:
UST systems can pose a significant threat to groundwater quality if they are not located correctly. In this project, students can investigate the impact of UST system location on groundwater quality. They can start by selecting a location for the UST system and installing a monitoring well nearby. They can then simulate a fuel spill and measure the concentration of various contaminants in the groundwater over time. Students can use this data to assess the risk associated with different UST system locations and develop guidelines for optimal UST system placement.
4.
Design and Construction of a Rainwater Harvesting System Using Underground Storage Tanks:
The project involves the design and construction of an underground storage tank system to collect and store rainwater for future use. The students will be required to analyze the requirements of the system, including the amount of rainfall in the region, the capacity of the tank system, and the water usage patterns. The project should also consider the type of tank material, the installation process, and the safety measures.
5.
Design and Installation of an Underground Storage Tank System for a Gas Station:
The project involves the design and installation of an underground storage tank system for a gas station. The students will be required to analyze the requirements of the system and develop a plan that meets the regulatory standards for the location. The project should consider factors such as the type and size of the tank, the type of fuel to be stored, the installation process, and safety measures.
6.
Design and Construction of an Underground Storage Tank System for a Greenhouse:
The project involves the design and construction of an underground storage tank system to store
water for irrigation purposes in a greenhouse. The students will be required to analyze the specific requirements of the greenhouse, including the water needs of the plants, the tank capacity, and the location. The project should also consider factors such as the type of tank material, the installation process, and the safety measures.
7.
Design and Installation of Airport Hydrant Fueling Systems: In this project, engineering students can research and design an airport hydrant fueling system. The project can include topics such as system layout, pump selection, fuel filtration, and safety measures. The students can also simulate the fueling process and develop a cost estimate for the
installation.
8.
Investigating the effectiveness and feasibility of different methods of release detection for field-
constructed tanks with a capacity greater than 50,000 gallons, such as vapor monitoring or inventory control. Students could conduct a comparative analysis of the different methods and assess their ability to detect leaks and other potential environmental hazards.
9.
Optimization of Field-Constructed Tanks for Water Storage: In this project, students can design and optimize a field-constructed tank system for water storage. The project can include topics such as tank sizing, material selection, installation and maintenance procedures, and cost analysis. The students can also incorporate advanced techniques such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation to optimize the tank design.
10.
Develop a sustainable and cost-effective method for repairing leaks and damage in hydrant pits and hydrant piping vaults. This project would require an understanding of the materials used in the construction of hydrant pits and piping vaults, the types of damage that occur, and how the repairs can be made without causing further damage to the environment.
11.
Investigate the environmental impact of using single-walled piping for underground storage tank systems with field-constructed tanks and airport hydrant systems, compared to double-walled piping. This project would require research on the materials used for piping, how they affect the environment, and how to prevent leaks and damage in both types of piping.
12.
Investigating the potential environmental impact of airport operations on nearby communities, including the impact of fuel storage and transportation systems. Students could evaluate the effectiveness of current environmental regulations and make recommendations for improving environmental monitoring and management practices in airport settings.
13.
Develop a comprehensive inspection and maintenance plan for an underground storage tank system with field-constructed tanks and airport hydrant systems that complies with the regulations outlined in N.J.A.C. 7:14B-6. The plan should include detailed procedures for conducting regular inspections and testing, as well as protocols for addressing leaks or other issues that may arise.
14.
Conduct a comparative analysis of the various alternative methods of release detection allowed in the regulations, including annual tank tightness test, automatic tank gauging system, vapor monitoring, inventory control, and other methods. The analysis should evaluate the effectiveness of each method in detecting releases and the cost of implementing each method.
15.
Design and build a small-scale underground storage tank system with field-constructed tanks and
airport hydrant systems that incorporates the various release detection methods allowed in the regulations. The system should be equipped with sensors and monitoring equipment to test the effectiveness of each method in detecting leaks or other issues.
16.
Conduct a case study analysis of a real-world incident involving an underground storage tank system or airport hydrant system that resulted in environmental damage or other negative consequences. The analysis should evaluate the cause of the incident and the effectiveness of the regulatory framework in preventing similar incidents in the future.
17.
Develop a proposal for a new regulatory framework for the management and monitoring of underground storage tank systems and airport hydrant systems that incorporates new technologies and approaches to release detection and environmental protection. The proposal should include a detailed cost-benefit analysis and stakeholder engagement plan.
