Processes, Assessment and Remediation of Contaminated Sediments
Author: Danny D. ReiblePublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461467268
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 496
Book Description
The purpose of this book is to help engineers and scientists better understand contaminated sediment sites and identify and design remedial approaches that are more efficient and effective. Contaminated sediment management is a difficult and costly exercise that is rarely addressed with easily identified and implemented remedies. It is hoped that this book can help identify and implement management approaches that provide an optimal, if not entirely satisfactory, solution to sediment contaminant problems.

Contaminated Marine Sediments
Author: National Research CouncilPublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309040957
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 506
Book Description
The pervasive, widespread problem of contaminated marine sediments is an environmental issue of national importance, arising from decades of intentionally and unintentionally using coastal waters for waste disposal. This book examines the extent and significance of the problem, reviews clean-up and remediation technologies, assesses alternative management strategies, identifies research and development needs, and presents the committee's major findings and recommendations. Five case studies examine different ways in which a variety of sediment contamination problems are being handled.
Biological Remediation of Contaminated Sediments, with Special Emphasis on the Great Lakes

Book Description
These proceedings describe a workshop held July 17-19, 1990 in Manitowoc, WI, at which biological remediation of contaminated sediments was discussed. For the purpose of the workshop, contaminated sediments of primary interest were those within six of the Areas of Concern (AOC) identified by the U.S./Canada International Joint Commission's Great Lakes Water Quality Board; five of which are priority concerns of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Assessment and Remediation of Contaminated Sediments (ARCS) program. The workshop was organized around four topic areas: (1) Overview of the Areas of Concern; (2) Biological degradataion of PCBs; (3) Biological degradation of PAHs; and (4) Biological treatment of metal species. For the first topic area, presentations were made describing site characteristic of the Ashtabula River, OH; Buffalo River, NY; Sheboygan River, WI; Grand Calumet River, IN; Saginaw River and Bay, MI; and Hamilton Harbor, Ontario, Canada. For the remaining topic areas, presentations were made by investigators actively involved in either bench, pilot, or full-scale studies concerning these areas. In this document extended abstracts written by the presenters are given, as well as brief summaries of the presentations and discussion sessions.

Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
In this text, drawn from presentations and discussion at a May 2005 NATO Advanced Research Workshop, current approaches to the assessment and remediation of contaminated sediments are discussed with emphasis on in-situ management. The text addresses physical, chemical and biological approaches for the assessment and remediation of sediments. The development of regulatory and strategic approaches is discussed with emphasis on the potential for biological remediation in the management of contaminated sediments.
