摘      要：Filter socks frequently are used for erosion and sediment perimeter control during oil and gas development activities in the Appalachian Basin of the United *** specify the use of composted wood material for sock *** specification,as opposed to non-composted or fresh wood chips(woods-run),has created inefficiencies during well site *** than use fresh wood chips created during site construction,composted chips must be procured and used as filter sock media for erosion and sedimentation *** woods-run chips could be used as filter sock media instead of composted chips,there could be a significant reduction in energy/capital costs,truck traffic,and disposal *** primary objective of this research project was to compare the effectiveness of woodsrun material versus traditionally composted wood chips in controlling sediment transport as well as other chemical and physical parameters in a laboratory *** significant differences in pH(5.96 versus 6.02) or conductivity(0.029 dS/m versus 0.035 dS/m) were found in sediment laden water filtered through woods-run versus composted chips,***,chip particle sizes were outside the allowable limits for composted sock media,and moisture content also was outside the specified limits for woods-run ***(NO) concentrations were significantly higher in woods-run,while phosphorus(P) and potassium(K) concentrations were greater in composted chips;however none of the N,P,or K concentrations were above the regulatory ***,no difference in the filtering efficiency or time was found between woods-run and composted *** laboratory results indicate that current regulations allowing the use of woods-run chips in all but the highest quality watersheds is justified.
