Abstract:

This paper presents an experimental investigation aimed at promoting a greater understanding of the behavior of strip footing on oil-contaminated sand. Contaminated sand layers were prepared by mixing sand with the waste engine oil (WEO) content of 1 % by weight of dried sand. A series of conditions, including uncontaminated cases, was tested by varying parameters such as the thickness of the contaminated sand layer and eccentricity of loading. The effects of eccentric loading on strip footing on uncontaminated and oil contaminated sand bed were studied in an experimental setup. The load-settl

Abstract: The consumption of oil is getting raised day to day in our country. Its availability is limited to only a few countries. So, it has to be transported from such countries to other parts of the world. Leakage of oil occurs during drilling process and transportation through pipe lines. Due to this leakage the surrounding sand or water gets contaminated. Because of this, contamination sand is getting polluted and its engineering properties are altered. This study is carried out to determine the effects of crude oil contamination on the engineering properties of sea sand and to improve th

Abstract:

Every day, petrochemical activities, oil spills, and pipeline or reservoir leakage contaminate the ground. In addition to environmental concerns, such as groundwater pollution, the alteration of geotechnical properties of the contaminated soil is also cause for worry. Contamination has been proven to alter the geotechnical properties of soil, and researchers have extensively studied the properties of contaminated granular soils. However, the effect of oil contamination on the geotechnical properties of fine-grained soils has not yet been well evaluated. Therefore, a comprehensive set of labora

Abstract:

There are significant environmental and health consequences associated with oil-contaminated sand due to its toxic and persistent nature. The impacts include disrupted ecosystems with harm to plants and animals and contamination of water sources, requiring immediate and sustained remediation. Using oil-contaminated sand in construction addresses waste management and promotes sustainability by reducing waste, protecting the environment, saving energy, and driving innovation. This study investigates the impact of crude oil-contaminated sand on concrete’s physical and mechanical characteristics.

Abstract:

This interdisciplinary project offers new insights into the reclamation history of two of the most controversial and contaminated sites in Canadian history: the Sydney tar ponds and coke ovens and the Athabasca oil sands. It argues that Canada’s natural resource-dependent economy, combined with jurisdictional uncertainty, created a hesitant, fragmentary site cleanup regime, one that left room for different ideas about landscapes to shape and even distort reclamation’s goals and processes. In the absence of substantive reclamation standards and legislation, researchers struggled to accommodate

In a polar liquid such as water, the highly hydrophobic oil-coal agglomerates formed by adding appropriate amount of coal into the oil contaminated sands could be mechanically liberated from cleaned sands during ball milling and recovered as a surface coating on the steel balls.

Abstract:

Oil leakage during the exploration, production, and transportation of crude oil is a significant issue worldwide because crude oil spills severely impact the physical and chemical properties of the surrounding soil. A range of remediation methods for oil-contaminated soil is recommended, consisting of sand washing, bioremediation, electro-kinetic sand remediation, and thermal desorption; however, none are cost-effective. To find a suitable alternative remediation method, oil-contaminated sand utilisation in construction was considered. Several researchers found that oil contamination generally

With an annual raw water import of approximately 34 million cubic metres, the company's water management program has been limited to the impounding of the waste water. The impounded volume has grown to over 350 million cubic metres and will continue to grow in future years. The storage of this waste
