This research was undertaken to investigate the suitability of recycled construction and
demolition materials as alternative pipe backfilling materials for stormwater and sewer pipes …

Recycled crushed glass is the main by-product of the glass recycling industry. Insufficient
knowledge of the geotechnical characteristics of recycled glass and its environmental risks …

Leaching tests are becoming more relevant in assessing solid waste material, particularly
with respect to groundwater risks. In the field, water infiltration is the dominant leaching …

Depending on the repository concept, buffer materials around the canister may play an
important role for the performance of deep geological repositories for high-level radioactive …

Given the large quantities of natural materials used daily in road building, it is necessary to

In this contribution we give a first general overview of results of recent studies in Germany
which focused on contaminant leaching from various materials and reactive solute transport …

Injection of CO 2 into gas reservoirs for CO 2-enhanced gas recovery will initiate a series of
geochemical reactions between pore fluids and solid phases. To simulate these conditions …

Recycling construction waste into subgrade materials is an effective way to build eco-
friendly highways. To assess the saturation and leaching characteristics of recycled …
