This book provides a comprehensive overview of remediation and
rehabilitation techniques and strategies for contaminated and
anthropogenically disturbed land. Rehabilitation approaches in the
urban environment, such as brownfield redevelopment and urban
mining, are discussed. In relation to contaminated land, techniques
for soil containment and decontamination of soil, soil vapour and
groundwater are comprehensively and systematically presented.
Complicated treatment techniques are schematically depicted and can
be readily understood. Agricultural, silvicultural and
environmentally sustainable rehabilitation strategies for
reclaiming disturbed land/terrain in former mining or
natural-resource extraction areas, such as open-cast mines,
quarries, harvested peatlands, and subsided mining terrain
(sinkholes), are introduced. This book will be a useful tool for
students, researchers, private consultants and public authorities
engaged in the treatment of contaminated or disturbed land.
