Slope Failure Remediation Design
… the instability of the slope. </p><p>Several remediation methods were considered such as benching, removal of material, ‘H’ piles, and soils nails. The methods were analyzed using Slope 5.0. The proximity of the river and need for the road were the greatest constraints in considering a method …

Foam-surfactant technology in soil remediation
… being considered as an important to in-situ soil remediation. However research in this area has been limited. Column experiments were conducted to investigate the factors that limit the use of foam as an agent for soil flushing. Pressure build up in the soil is an important factor that was studied …

Remediation of water using modified chitosan.
Water treatment has been an area of increasing concern over the last decade. This interest is due to exponential increase in demand of already limited water sources. Therefore the treatment of wastewater for re-use is a topic of great interest. The treatment applied depends on the source and …

The use of poetry in remediation
… remedial programme. The efficacy of the need for remediation is examined, and remediation methods analysed for what they should include. Other avenues of remediation are explored, such as the gross and fine motor and perceptual schools of thought, and the language and auditory orientation to …

Quality Remediation Programs Lead to Successful Learning
… programs. The research questions were: 1) What remediation policies and strategies were implemented in nursing programs to increase student retention rates? 2) What remediation policies and strategies were implemented in nursing programs to increase NCLEX-RN® exam first-time pass rates? Methods: …

Passive Site Remediation for Mitigation of Liquefaction Risk
Passive site remediation is a new concept proposed for non-disruptive mitigation of liquefaction risk at developed sites susceptible to liquefaction. It is based on the concept of slow injection of stabilizing materials at the edge of a site and delivery of the stabilizer to the target location …

Sustainable site remediation : a life cycle assessment approach
Remediation of contaminated areas is often a resource-intensive activity that itself can create environmental burdens. Life cycle assessment (LCA) was used as a tool to examine the environmental impacts associated with remediation activities. A hypothetical contaminated site with five remediation …

Remediation of chromium contaminated soils with colloidal silica
The low-viscosity stabilizer, colloidal silica, is extensively used as a grouting material in the construction of grout curtains. It has low viscosity and is non-toxic, which is suitable for injection to stabilize fine-grained soils. It is also applied as a stabilizer in the in-situ treatment of …

AMD&ART: performativity and participation in ecological remediation
In this study, I examine and theorize AMD&ART, an artwork devoted to treating polluted water in Vintondale, PA. AMD&ART is much more than simply a water treatment facility, however. Each chapter of this document examines AMD&ART through the lens of a different body of scholarly literature: the …
