Soil and Sediment Remediation discusses in detail a whole set of
remediative technologies currently available to minimise their
impact. Technologies for the treatment of soils and sediments in
situ (landfarming, bioscreens, bioventing, nutrient injection,
phytoremediation) and ex situ (landfarming, bio-heap treatment,
soil suspension reactor) will be discussed. The microbiological,
process technological and socio-economical aspects of these
technologies will be addressed. Special attention will be given to
novel biotechnological processes that utilise sulfur cycle
conversions, e.g. sulfur and heavy metal removal from soils. Also
the potential of phytoremediation will be highlighted. In addition,
treatment schemes for the clean-up of polluted megasites, e.g.
harbours and Manufactured Gaswork Plants (MGP), will be elaborated.
The aim of Soil and Sediment Remediation is to introduce the reader
in: the biogeochemical characteristics of soil and sediments- new
techniques to study soil/sediment processes (molecular probes,
microelectrodes, NMR) clean up technologies for soils polluted with
organic (PAH, NAPL, solvents) or inorganic (heavy metals)
pollutants- preventative and remediative strategies and
technologies available in environmental engineering novel process
applications and bioreactor designs for bioremediation the impact
of soil pollution on society and its economic importance.
