Abstract
This research conducts an analysis of the environmental impact of airport deicing activities at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. Deicing and anti-icing fluids have a high concentration of glycol that can lead to increased bacterial growth in the receiving waters and reduced dissolved oxygen. Statistical methods for data mining were employed to evaluate the impact on dissolved oxygen and chemical oxygen demand in airport receiving waters. In particular, decision tree models were developed to determine important explanatory variables to predict dissolved oxygen and chemical oxygen demand.
