Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results from an investigation of the feasibility of using dredged material in solid waste management. Potential uses investigated included the construction of cover, liners, gas vents, leachate drains, and gas barriers at sanitary landfills. The properties of dewatered dredged material were compared with those of similar types of soil, and the suitability of dredged material to fulfill the functional requirements of various uses of soil at solid waste disposal operations was evaluated on the basis of the comparison. The suitability of slurry or semisolid dredged material was also evaluated. This report discusses the environmental and economic factors that will influence the feasibility of using dredged material in solid waste management. How the different uses for dredged material can be coordinated with dredged material and solid waste disposal operations occurring simultaneously or sequentially at the same location are also discussed. Concepts are presented to suggests the types of operations that could result if dredged material were used in solid waste management. The investigation concluded that dewatered dredged material can meet the functional requirements of several uses for soil at a sanitary landfill, that uses for semisolid dredged material are limited to situations in which trafficability is not a consideration, and that trench and area methods of sanitary landfilling are adaptable to the use of dredged material.

Download or read book Environmental Management of Solid Waste written by Wim Salomons and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dredged Material and Mine Tailings are two of the same thing once they are deposited on land: they must be safe-guarded, wash-out must be prevented, and they must be protected by a plantcover. This comprehensive two-volume treatise covers both important aspects of their management: Environmental Management of Solid Waste turns to the practical applications, such as prediction, restoration and management, while in Chemistry and Biology of Solid Waste the principles and assessment are scientifically studied and discussed. Previously, dredged material was a commodity, it could be sold as soil, e. g. to gardeners. In the meantime, dredged material from the North Sea (e.g. the Rotterdam or Amsterdam harbor) must be treated as hazardous waste. Many environmentalists, managers and companies do not know how to solve the inherent problems. This new work deals with the chemical, physical and biological principles; the biological and geochemical assessment; the prediction of effects and treatment; and finally, with restoration and revegetation. It is written by many leading scientists in the various fields, and will prove invaluable for managers and politicians who are concerned with the present environmental situation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual provides guidance for planning, designing, developing, and managing dredged material for beneficial uses, incorporating ecological concepts and engineering designs with biological, economical, and social feasibility. Beneficial uses of dredged material have been proven on numerous sites in United States waterways. This manual will be helpful to scientists and engineers responsible for dredging and dredged material disposal using environmentally, economically, and socially sound techniques and beneficial use management strategies. Ten broad categories of beneficial uses have been identified, based on their functional use of dredged material at disposal sites. They are: (1) Habitat development (wetland, upland, island, aquatic, including migratory and nesting use by waterbirds, shorebirds, waterfowl, and other groups). (2) Beach nourishment. (3) Aquaculture. (4) Parks and recreation (commercial and noncommercial). (5) Agriculture, forestry, and horticulture. (6) Strip mine reclamation and solid waste management. (7) Shoreline stabilization and erosion control. (8) Construction and industrial use (including port development, airports, urban, and residential). (9) Material transfer (fill, dikes, levees, parking lots, roads). (10) Multiple purpose.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's abstract: Dredging is the removal of sediments and debris from the bottom of lakes, rivers and other water bodies. It is a necessary routine in waterways around the world because sedimentation, the natural process of sand and silt washing downstream, gradually fills up channels and harbors. Every year in the US, the dredging of shipping channels, harbors, waterways, canals, and lakes produce large quantities of valuable sediment material in some locations and an unwanted inconvenience in others. The United States Army of Corps (USACE) has been dredging sediment from the Savannah River since the 19th century. A crucial requirement for maintaining a deepened harbor is having a designated placement area for sediment. The Corps call these designated areas dredged material containment areas (DMCA). The Savannah Harbor's DMCAs spread across 5,500 acres along the South Carolina side of the lower Savannah River. With this area rapidly approaching capacity, there is an urgent need for impactful solutions that will transfer and curtail a substantial amount of existing and incoming material in an ongoing and sustainable way. Necessitated and supported by GDOT's Waterways Office, The Army Corps of Engineers, and the City of Savannah Sanitation Department, this study focuses on the direct implementation of a significant amount of dredge material for use as cover in the City of Savannah's Dean Forest Landfill Extension.

This book was released on 2004-04-22 with total page 1161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers a broad group of wastes, from biowaste to hazardous waste, but primarily the largest (by mass and volume) group of wastes that are not hazardous, but also are not inert, and are problematic for three major reasons: (1) they are difficult to manage because of their volume: usually they are used in civil engineering as a common fill etc., where they are exposed to environmental conditions almost the same way as at disposal sites; (2) they are not geochemically stable and in the different periods of environmental exposure undergo transformations that might add hazardous properties to the material that are not displayed when it is freshly generated; (3) many designers and researchers in different countries involved in waste management are often not aware of time-delayed adverse environmental impact of some large-volume waste, and also do not consider some positive properties that may extend the area of their environmentally beneficial application.
