Stabilisation/solidification of lead-contaminated soil by using ladle furnace slag and carbon dioxide

Chromium stabilization of tannery sludge by co-treatment with ladle furnace slag

Hazardous solid wastes may pose a serious risk to human health and to the environment, if not managed appropriately and disposed of safely. In this study, the effective stabilization of tannery sludge, a toxic industrial solid waste produced from the physico-chemical treatment of tannery wastewaters, was examined by the addition of ladle furnace slag (LFS), another industrial solid waste. Moreo...

Soil Stabilisation Using Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag

Stabilisation is a broad sense for the various methods employed and modifying the properties of a soil to improve its engineering performance and used for a variety of engineering works. In today‟s day soil stabilisation is the major problem for civil engineers, either for construction of road and also for increasing the strength or stability of soil and reduces the construction cost. In this t...

Carbon Dioxide Sequestration by Carbonation of Steel Slag

Mechanical and leaching behaviour of slag-cement and lime-activated slag stabilised/solidified contaminated soil.

Stabilisation/solidification (S/S) is an effective technique for reducing the leachability of contaminants in soils. Very few studies have investigated the use of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) for S/S treatment of contaminated soils, although it has been shown to be effective in ground improvement. This study sought to investigate the potential of GGBS activated by cement and lime...

Solidification/Stabilization of Lead Contaminated Soil Using Magnesia Phosphate cement and Ordinary Portland cement

Background and objectives: Solidification/stabilization is an effective technique for reducing the leachability of contaminants in soils. Magnesia phosphate cement and ordinary Portland cement can be used to remediate soils contaminated. In this study, the performance of the solidified/stabilized soil was compared for mixtures composed of magnesia phosphate and ordinary Portland cement. Materia...
