The adsorption process is one of the most cost-effective methods for eliminating various
types of pollutants from water. Clay minerals can be converted into biosorbents for …

Desiccation cracking has a significant influence on the hydro-mechanical behaviour of soils.
Most previous studies focus on the desiccation cracking of slurry soil samples, whereas little …

The fate of reservoir landslides is mainly dictated by the mechanical behavior of soil in the
sliding zone. This soil may be altered under changing environmental conditions of both …

It is proposed to use dredged marine sediments as fill material in marine reclamation
engineering by stabilisation/solidification (S/S) technology with sustainable binding …

The effects of biochar-amended soils as landfill covers have been extensively studied in
terms of liquid and gas permeability. However, the influences of biochar-amended soils on …

Kaolinite and methoxy-modified kaolinite were used as novel adsorbents for oxytetracycline
(OTC) removal and recovery from aqueous media. Batch adsorption experiments were …

This paper investigates the geotechnical properties of a type of synthetic municipal solid
waste (MSW). The tests were conducted on five groups of synthetic MSW compositions …

The micro–composition of the soil is closely related to its engineering properties. In
Northeast China, seasonal freezing and thawing can induce deterioration of the …

Drying fine-grained sediments experience shrinkage and desiccation cracking that may
dramatically alter their mechanical and hydraulic properties. This study adopts X-ray …

The chemical and geotechnical properties of solidified/stabilized (s/s) municipal solid waste
incineration (MSWI) fly ash are of prime importance for the design and operation of landfill …
