DOWNLOAD EBOOKSediment and Dredged Material Treatment forms the second volume in the SEDNET mini-series, Sustainable Management of Sediment Resources. The volume asks "How can you achieve sustainable sediment treatment?". In fact, before this question can be answered, many steps have to be considered beforehand. This book tackles the questions and issues which arise when looking at the various steps involved. This volume is applicable to a wide audience, from students at the graduate level, to experienced researchers and laboratory personnel in academia, industry and government. This volume also available as part of a 4-volume set, ISBN 0444519599. Discount price for set purchase. Gives a broad overview on sediment treatment with a European perspective Suitable for those new to sediment treatment as well as specialists in the field Provides an overview on the costs involved in sediment treatment

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe objective of the Dredged Material Research Program is to provide definitive information on the environmental impact of dredging and dredged material disposal operations and to develop technically satisfactory, environmentally compatible, and economically feasible dredging and disposal alternatives, including consideration of dredged material as a manageable resource. Specific goals are to: (1) Establish definitively the effects of open-water, land, and wetland disposal on water quality and organisms; (2) test and evaluate concepts of marsh development and land and water habitat development as environmentally beneficial disposal alternatives; (3) Improve and enhance the acceptance of confined land disposal as an alternative and consider regulation of the dredging/disposal operation as an environmental control measure; and (4) Develop and test concepts for using disposal sites for productive purposes and consider the use of dredged material as a natural resource.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMaintenance of navigation in the Nation's waterways requires the annual dredging of more than 400 million cubic yards of estuarine, lacustrine, and riverine sediments. As part of the Corps of Engineers' comprehensive Dredged Material Research Program, various avenues are being explored for productive uses of dredged material, with or without mechanical or chemical treatment. Several studies have been initiated seeking ways to use the fine-grained, low-density, high-water-content, nutrient-rich characteristics as assets rather than liabilities. These include using the material for strip mine reclamation, filling abandoned pits or quarries, cover for sanitary landfills, and agricultural land enhancement. Initial investigations are concentrating on aspects relevant to any related use, i.e., relatively long distance transport systems (including collection and distribution subsystems) involving pipeline, rail, barge, and other modes; and geochemical and geohydrological considerations of leachate and groundwater contamination potential.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKValorization of Dredged Sediments as Sustainable Construction Resources provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of research on the reuse of sediments as a raw material for civil engineering fields. Dredging is increasing in scale worldwide, while deep sea disposal is being eliminated and landfill disposal is becoming less sustainable. Yet these sediments offer a potentially useful resource for constructing pavements, soil, bricks, ceramic and clinker, for they provide fine and lightweight aggregates, supplementary cementitious materials and geopolymer binders. This has sparked considerable research on valorization, which is presented here. Covers the main re-uses of sediments and the valorization required Focuses on state-of-the-art research on practical guidance Discusses limitations and future perspectives for sediments valorization The book suits researchers and students working in the area, as well as industrial engineers and professionals working on recycling and dredging.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis report examines four aspects of the use of dredged material by the Corps of Engineers for the purposes of beach nourishment and/or erosion control. These were: (a) the policies and authorities used in the placement of dredged material; (b) factors which affect the feasibility of dredged material placement; (c) the extent to which the Corps is currently using dredged material for beach nourishment and/or erosion control; and (d) procedures used to exploit or promote such uses of dredged material.
