Download or read book Proposed Evaluation Protocol for Cement based Solidified Wastes written by Canada. Environment Canada and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many processes were developed to chemically stabilize and solidify industrial wastes. This evaluation protocol is a decision-making tool for managing stabilized-solidified (S/S) wastes which could be used in a regulatory framework. For that purpose, the protocol is based on the measurement of several physical, engineering, and chemical properties of S/S wastes in order to evaluate different utilization and disposal scenarios. Several of the testing methods in the protocol were evaluated in a cooperative project with the industry initiated by Environment Canada; others are methods recommended by standards organizations in the fields of hazardous and radioactive wastes; and some properties of S/S wastes are measured using methods that are still in their development stage. The protocol evaluates both level 1, based on contaminant partitioning, and level 2, based on physical entrapment.

Download or read book Chemistry and Microstructure of Solidified Waste Forms written by Roger D. Spence and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1992-12-15 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemistry and Microstructure of Solidified Waste Forms presents a comprehensive summary of mechanisms of immobilization in cementitious waste forms and the effect of waste species on cement chemistry and morphology. The book introduces the well-known chemistry and microstructure of cement pastes, in addition to common mechanisms of immobilization of waste species in cementitious waste forms. The fundamental chemical and microstructural fate of waste species is reviewed, and a technique for studying cementitious waste forms using scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) is described with examples of its application. Chemistry and Microstructure of Solidified Waste Forms also presents evidence to prove that chromium in waste becomes part of the cement matrix, and the potentially harmful effect of this process is discussed. Data for interpretations are included so that other researchers can analyze the data and draw their own conclusions. The book also discusses how solubility and solubility theory can be combined with leach theory and diffusion theory to predict the leaching performance of cementitious waste forms. Chemistry and Microstructure of Solidified Waste Forms will prove invaluable to hazardous waste professionals, engineers, environmental engineers, chemical engineers, waste disposal managers, waste form developers and researchers, and regulators.
Download or read book Concrete in the Service of Mankind written by Ravindra Dhir and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1996-06-13 with total page 754 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concrete is ubiquitous and unique, found in every developed and developing country. Indeed, there are no alternatives to concrete as a volume construction material for infrastructure. This raises important questions of how concrete should be designed and constructed for cost effective use in the the short and long term, and to encourage further radical development. Equally, it must be environmentally friendly during manufacture, in an aesthetic presentation in structures and in the containment of harmful materials. The central theme of the Congress is Concrete in the Service of Mankind, under which five self-contained Conferences, each dealing with a particular aspect, are planned. The Congress offers opportunity to discuss how to improve and extend this service to mankind using responsible exploitation, underwritten by sound technical understanding and research base. It brings together the shared skills and experience of the various disciplines involved in the construction process world wide. This major publication continues the tradition established by Dundee University of organizing major international conferences every three years dealing with some aspect of concrete and also the link between Spon and Dundee University for publication of the proceedings. This book should be of interest to concrete technologists; contractors; civil engineers; consultants; government agencies; research organizations.

Download or read book Evolution Mechanism on Structural Characteristics of Lead Contaminated Soil in the Solidification Stabilization Process written by Jiang-shan Li and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the use of Solidification/Stabilization (S/S) to treat lead-contaminated soils, which are widely present in China. It reveals the evolutionary mechanism of the structural characteristics of Pb contaminated soil during the S/S process. In addition, the book systematically analyzes laws influencing the S/S process and its internal mechanisms, and develops new models for the strength prediction and Pb leaching prediction of S/S monolith. The results can provide essential theoretical guidance and parameter-related support for the design of Pb-contamiated soil S/S remediation and recycling solutions.
