Abstract Recently, the use of plastic products, such as polyethylene (PE) bottles and polypropylene (PP), has been significantly increased, which may lead to many environmental issues. Therefore, it is important find methods manage these waste materials without causing any ecological hazards. One wastes soil stabiliser materials. In this study, PE PP have used in form fibres. The effect stabili...

Salt marshes are globally distributed, vegetated intertidal wetlands and marsh edge erosion is common on many shores. To understand how why occurs, the response of salt substrates to applied shear vertical stress must first be quantified. This likely influenced by substrate biological, geochemical sedimentological composition. However, currently there little systematic research into between-mar...

In Nigeria, potassium permanganate (KMnO4) is used as a chemical oxidant in the removal of hydrocarbons from polluted soils and groundwater, but there no information on effects KMnO4 geotechnical properties soil. this study, was added separately to lateritic soil kaolin at concentrations 0 %, 2 5% 10 % by weight dry Each mixes then subjected grain size analysis, Atterberg limits, specific gravi...

fly ash is one of the most plentiful and versatile of the industrial by-products. at present, nearly 150 million tonnes of fly ash is being generated annually in india posing dual problem of environmental pollution and difficulty in disposal. this calls for establishing strategies to use the same effectively and efficiently. however, it is only in geotechnical engineering applications such as t...

Acoustic backscatter contrast in depositional sediments under salmon farm cages in the Bay of Fundy, Canada, was correlated with localized changes in (unknown) sediment geotechnical properties, as indicated by 4 independent measures of organic enrichment. Sediment total sulfides and redox potentials, enzyme hydrolyzable amino acids, sediment profile imaging and macrofaunal samples, taken at mid...
