Sediment and Dredged Material Treatment forms the second volume in the SEDNET mini-series, Sustainable Management of Sediment Resources. The volume asks "How can you achieve sustainable sediment treatment?". In fact, before this question can be answered, many steps have to be considered beforehand. This book tackles the questions and issues which arise when looking at the various steps involved. This volume is applicable to a wide audience, from students at the graduate level, to experienced researchers and laboratory personnel in academia, industry and government. This volume also available as part of a 4-volume set, ISBN 0444519599. Discount price for set purchase. Gives a broad overview on sediment treatment with a European perspective Suitable for those new to sediment treatment as well as specialists in the field Provides an overview on the costs involved in sediment treatment

Task 6B of the Dredged Material Research Program (DMRP) was established to evaluate physical, chemical, and/or biological processes for treating contaminated dredged material to minimize the environmental impact of open-water and confined disposal operations. Although the majority of the sediments dredged in the United States are not contaminated by significantly high levels of harmful chemical constituents, in some cases treatment may be a necessary part of the dredging or disposal operation. This report synthesizes the results of seven contract research studies and provides an overview of the problems associated with treating dredged material slurries generated by hydraulic dredging operations. Site-specific treatment problems may be encountered on some operations where a process that was not evaluated in this program may appear to be applicable. In these cases, the advice of consultants specializing in process design should be obtained. Regardless of the nature and magnitude of the treatment problem, it is imperative to consider the compatibility of all the components of the dredging operation, including excavation, transportation, and disposal/treatment, as a total integrated system and not as separate components.

Alternative technologies and alternative strategies for dredging, transport, and disposal of contaminated dredged material are reviewed. Contaminant control/treatment during three basic operations are discussed. These include contaminant control/treatment during dredging, contaminant control/treatment during material transport, and contaminant control/treatment during disposal operations. Many technologies have been developed for control/treatment of contaminated media. These technologies have the potential for application to a contaminated dredged material handling operation. Such technologies are identified in this report. Technologies are separated into proven, demonstrated, demonstrable, and conceptual categories.

Dredged Material and Mine Tailings are two of the same thing once they are deposited on land: they must be safe-guarded, wash-out must be prevented, and they must be protected by a plantcover. This comprehensive two-volume treatise covers both important aspects of their management: Environmental Management of Solid Waste turns to the practical applications, such as prediction, restoration and management, while in Chemistry and Biology of Solid Waste the principles and assessment are scientifically studied and discussed. Previously, dredged material was a commodity, it could be sold as soil, e. g. to gardeners. In the meantime, dredged material from the North Sea (e.g. the Rotterdam or Amsterdam harbor) must be treated as hazardous waste. Many environmentalists, managers and companies do not know how to solve the inherent problems. This new work deals with the chemical, physical and biological principles; the biological and geochemical assessment; the prediction of effects and treatment; and finally, with restoration and revegetation. It is written by many leading scientists in the various fields, and will prove invaluable for managers and politicians who are concerned with the present environmental situation.

"During the latter part of the 20th century it became clear that another approach should be found for handling contaminated dredged material. Up to then it was common practise to dispose dredged material at sea or use it to raise the land or as fertilizer on land. A new approach was to store contaminated dredged material in confined disposal facilities (CDFs). These CDFs are only meant for dredged material that is heavily contaminated and cannot be relocated into the water system or used for engineering or environmental purposes. Much effort was devoted to the design of CDFs and to the assessment and management of environmental risks. Despite the fact that stricter environmental pollution controls meant that sediments in rivers and harbours became less contaminated and options for use of dredged material became more available, there still is the need for more storage capacity for contaminated dredged material arising from certain capital, environmental remediation and sometimes maintenance dredging projects. It is especially difficult to decrease the influence of diffuse sources on contamination levels of sediments."--Introduction.
