Stabilization of contaminated canal sediments

European Journal of Environmental and Civil Engineering, 2011
ABSTRACT Morocco has valuable assets in marine seaboards and resources. The Mediterranean coasts do more than attracting tourists. That is why it is imperative to reconcile economic development with the quality of the environment. The industrial area in Tangier (Morocco), situated in the south-east area of the city, is a primary source of sediment ...

Colloid Stability in Vadose Zone Hanford Sediments

Environmental Science & Technology, 2005
We experimentally determined colloid stability of natural colloids extracted from vadose zone sediments from the U.S. Department of Energy's Hanford Reservation. We also used reference minerals, kaolinite, montmorillonite, and silica,for comparative purposes.

Effects of estuarine infauna on sediment stability and particle sedimentation

Hydrobiologia, 1990
Secretions produced by the two estuarine benthic invertebrates Corophium volutator and Nereis diversicolor stabilise sediments by increasing their shear strength, and reduce sedimentation of previously resuspended particles. The secretions consist of 1 to 2 μm threads which bind the particles together. They are used by both species in the production of

Stabilization/solidification of contaminated marine sediment

2022
This contribution aims to describe the latest research on the application of SS treatments to contaminated marine sediments with both inorganic and mixed organic/inorganic compounds. The intent is to show how SS is not only a remediation technology, but a medium to enable recovery, recycling, and reuse of contaminated marine sediments.

Origin of Stability in Sedimentation

Physical Review Letters, 2002
Velocity fluctuations and particle concentrations are studied in a liquid fluidized bed to investigate the origin of steady state sedimentation. Both the velocity fluctuations and the particle concentrations are found to strongly depend on height. A flux balance model shows why the bed is stable: velocity fluctuations drive a downward particle flux ...

Stability of settling of suspended sediments

The Physics of Fluids, 1978
The solution to the equations of two-phase flow which describes hindered settling is unstable to small perturbations.
