Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers a range of topics that are of increasing importance in engineering practice: natural hazards, pollution, and environmental protection through good practice. The first half of the book deals with natural risk factors, of both natural and human origin, that should be considered: subsidence, accidental infiltration, soil instability, rockslides and mudslides, debris flow, and degradation of buildings and monuments due to pollution and climactic effects, for example. These problems are highlighted and it is shown that a combination of sophisticated numerical techniques and extensive experimental investigations are necessary in order to effectively tackle these problems. The second half of the book is devoted to the use of polluted sites and associated problems, a topic of growing significance given the increasing reclamation of land from abandoned industrial sites for urban development over the last 20 years. Different types of oil pollution and decontamination methods are described, followed by a discussion of waste management and detailed coverage of confinement liners used in surface waste disposal.

Download or read book Remediation Strategy and Process for Areas Affected by Past Activities or Events written by IAEA and published by International Atomic Energy Agency. This book was released on 2022-05-10 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A variety of past activities and events have resulted in contamination of sites and areas by residual radioactive material. In cases where relevant criteria are exceeded, remediation should be implemented to reduce radiation exposure due to contamination, taking into account other non-radiological hazards as appropriate. Remediation includes any actions applied to the contamination itself (the source) or to the exposure pathways to people. This Safety Guide provides recommendations on the planning and implementation of remediation of sites and areas affected by past activities and events based on a systematic, stepwise approach, taking account of the specific characteristics of a given situation and the prevailing circumstances. The Safety Guide is targeted at regulatory bodies, responsible parties, operating organizations and other parties involved in the remediation of sites or areas and contributing to the recovery process to ensure the protection of people and the environment.

Download or read book Sites et sols pollu s written by Jean-Pierre Boivin and published by Le Moniteur Editions. This book was released on 2013-10-23 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La quatrième de couverture indique : "La politique nationale de gestion des sites et sols pollués mise en place prend en compte le lourd passé industriel de la France. Cette politique est axée autour de la prévention de la pollution des sites industriels, de la réhabilitation des sols en fonction de leur usage futur et de la conservation de la mémoire des pollutions résiduelles passées. Cet ouvrage expose les nouvelles règles, leurs objectifs et leurs limites en abordant de façon synthétique les aspects juridiques, techniques et financiers de la gestion des sites et sols pollués. Cette 2e édition, entièrement refondue, analyse les évolutions profondes qui ont récemment bouleversé la matière. L'ouvrage aborde ainsi l'action des pouvoirs publics en matière de traitement des sites et sols pollués. Il détaille les objectifs de la réhabilitation, présente les acteurs de cette réhabilitation et les règles applicables, la normalisation et la certification ayant notamment professionnalisé le secteur. La mise en place des études de sols, l'interprétation de l'état des milieux (IEM) et le plan de gestion (PG) nécessaires aux responsables de sites est ensuite évoquée. Le financement des opérations de réhabilitation est également exposé. Enfin, l'ouvrage retrace l'apport du juge judiciaire appelé à construire – autour d'un nouvel ordre public environnemental – un droit prétorien de la vente et de la location des sites pollués, puis explore les potentialités ouvertes par l'article L. 556-1 du Code de l'environnement. Riche et pratique, Sites et sols pollués fournit à tous les acteurs de la remise en état (industriels, propriétaires fonciers, aménageurs, État, élus locaux et leurs conseils, associations...) une expertise technique et juridique et un éclairage opérationnel permettant à chacun de maîtriser ses responsabilités. Cet ouvrage est également destiné aux magistrats, avocats et notaires rédacteurs d'actes portant sur des sites pollués ou potentiellement pollués. Les bureaux d'études y trouveront également le cadre juridique qui structure désormais leurs activités."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La politique de gestion des sites et sols pollués mise en place ces trente dernières années a récemment été bouleversée par des mesures notamment introduites par la loi « ASAP » en 2020, et par la loi « Climat et Résilience » en 2021. Ce guide complet, entièrement refondu dans cette 3e édition, expose les nouvelles règles, leurs objectifs et leurs limites en abordant de façon synthétique les aspects juridiques, techniques et financiers de la gestion des sites et sols pollués. Ainsi, cet ouvrage : – analyse la construction graduelle de la politique de gestion des sites et sols pollués, ainsi que ses différents prismes et objectifs ; – expose le rôle des différents acteurs et les règles de la réhabilitation : débiteurs de l’obligation, prescriptions et sanctions, organisation et gestion des chantiers, moyens financiers... ; – détaille les mesures relatives à la vigilance et au suivi des sites et sols pollués : pérennisation des mesures de gestion, outils d’urbanisme, de vigilance et d’accompagnement, règles relatives aux transactions immobilières Riche et pratique, Sites et sols pollués fournit à tous les acteurs de la remise en état (industriels, propriétaires fonciers, aménageurs, État, élus locaux et leurs conseils, associations...) une expertise technique et juridique et un éclairage opérationnel permettant à chacun de maîtriser ses responsabilités.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SOIL: beneath our feet / food and fiber / ashes to ashes, dust to dust / dirt!Soil has been called the final frontier of environmental research. The critical role of soil in biogeochemical processes is tied to its properties and place—porous, structured, and spatially variable, it serves as a conduit, buffer, and transformer of water, solutes and gases. Yet what is complex, life-giving, and sacred to some, is ordinary, even ugly, to others. This is the enigma that is soil. Soil and Culture explores the perception of soil in ancient, traditional, and modern societies. It looks at the visual arts (painting, textiles, sculpture, architecture, film, comics and stamps), prose & poetry, religion, philosophy, anthropology, archaeology, wine production, health & diet, and disease & warfare. Soil and Culture explores high culture and popular culture—from the paintings of Hieronymus Bosch to the films of Steve McQueen. It looks at ancient societies and contemporary artists. Contributors from a variety of disciplines delve into the mind of Carl Jung and the bellies of soil eaters, and explore Chinese paintings, African mud cloths, Mayan rituals, Japanese films, French comic strips, and Russian poetry.

Download or read book Environmental Soil Remediation and Rehabilitation written by Eric D. van Hullebusch and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-04-22 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive overview of innovative remediation techniques and strategies for soils contaminated by heavy metals or organic compounds (e.g. petroleum hydrocarbons, NAPLs and chlorinated organic compounds). It discusses various novel chemical remediation approaches (in-situ and ex-situ) used alone and in combination with physical and/or thermal treatment. Further, it addresses the recovery of NAPLs, reuse of leaching solutions, and in-situ chemical reduction and oxidation, and explores the chemical enhancement of physical NAPLs recovery from both practical and theoretical perspectives. Also presenting the state-of-the-art in waste-assisted bioremediation to improve soil quality and the remediation of petroleum hydrocarbons, the book is a valuable resource for students, researchers and R&D professionals in industry engaged in the treatment of contaminated soils.
