The Impact of oil contamination on soil hydrophobicity and physico-chemical properties around Bandar Abbas oil refinery, Hormozgan Province, Iran

Environmental Health Engineering and Management
Background: The leakage of oil, in addition to negative environmental effects such as groundwater contamination, causes changes in the geotechnical characteristics of the soil.

Burn Effects on Soil Aggregate Stability and Water Repellency of Two Soil Types from East and North Tunisia

Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 2019
To date, evidence of the potential effects of burning practices on soil properties in Tunisia is limited. In order to address this issue, we carried out laboratory investigations of the effects of burning on soil aggregate stability (AS) and water ...

Hydrophobic and mechanical enhancement of silica sand treated with tung oil

Canadian geotechnical journal (Print)
This study investigated the hydrophobic and mechanical enhancement of silica sands treated with tung oil, a natural hydrophobic stabilizer, for road embankment applications. Through laboratory testing including apparent contact angle (ACA) and water drop

The Dropbot: Design and Development of a Custom Drone for Precision Water Drop Penetration Time (WDPT) Testing

Assessing the hydrophobic characteristics of soil is vital for understanding soil wettability or soil-water interactions, particularly in post-wildfire environments where water repellency can significantly impact ecosystem recovery, water infiltration, and erosion control.
