Characterization and Behaviour of Natural and Engineered Geomaterials
This book presents the select proceedings of the 8th Indian Young Geotechnical Engineers Conference (8IYGEC 2021) on the following conference themes: Characterization and Behaviour of Saturated and Unsaturated Geomaterials, Geoenvironmental Engineering, Geotechnical Investigation and Spatial Analysis and Offshore and Marine Geotechnology. The book covers a wide range of topics on characterization and behaviour of natural and engineered geomaterials, which include soil suction characteristics, hydraulic and volume change behaviour of clay liners, collapse behaviour, contaminant transport, phytoremediation, microbial characterization and biochar-amended soil in landfill covers, stabilization of soils, etc. This book can be a valuable reference for academicians and practicing engineers.
Geotechnical Engineering in the XXI Century: Lessons learned and future challenges
The first Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (PCSMGE) was held in Mexico in 1959. Every 4 years since then, PCSMGE has brought together the geotechnical engineering community from all over the world to discuss the problems, solutions and future challenges facing this engineering sector. Sixty years after the first conference, the 2019 edition returns to Mexico. This book, Geotechnical Engineering in the XXI Century: Lessons learned and future challenges, presents the proceedings of the XVI Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (XVI PCSMGE), held in Cancun, Mexico, from 17 – 20 November 2019. Of the 393 full papers submitt...
Management of Water Resources Using Electrochemical Methods
This book encompasses various approaches to electrochemical water treatment, emphasizing a well-structured framework within the nexus of electrochemistry, water, and energy. It addresses the urgent challenges of water scarcity and pollution and offers practical insights and operational guidance on removing pollutants and preserving water resources through water purification. Applications and real-life case studies support the innovative nature of electrochemical processes as a sustainable and efficient alternative. The user-friendly approach makes this book accessible to a broad audience, being a specialist seeking advanced techniques or a concerned citizen. Features Covers comprehensively t...
Overexploitation and Contamination of Shared Groundwater Resources
Forty percent of the world’s population depends upon increasingly scarce and shared water resources. This situation is critical at both international and national levels not only for socio-economic development, but also for the regional stability. The intensive use of groundwater for irrigation and water supply is adding pressures to scarce water resources and the environment through overexploitation and contamination which result in situations that may lead to conflicts. The book from the NATO ASI on “Overexploitation and Contamination of Shared Groundwater Resources Management, (Bio)technological, and Political Approaches to Avoid Conflicts” is written by authors from different disci...
Pollution Control for Clean Environment — Volume 2
This book presents select proceedings of the International Conference on Pollution Control for Clean Environment (ICPCCE-2023). It introduces readers to the recent emerging pollutants in air and water environments and in solid waste and sheds light on the newly developed control strategies. The book discusses various topics including the occurrence of emerging contaminants, micropollutants in water, wastewater and aquatic environments, occurrence pathways, surface and groundwater pollution, and risk and impact assessment of pollution. The chapters provide advanced information topics including effective monitoring, detection, sustainable practices, cleaner and innovative water and wastewater ...
