  • NATURAL AND ENHANCED ATTENUATION OF CONTAMINANTS IN SOILS, SECOND EDITION
    RAYMOND N. YONG / CATHERINE N. MULLIGAN
    Natural attenuation has become an effective and low-cost alternative to more expensive engineered remediation. This new edition updates the principles and fundamentals of natural attenuation of contaminants with a broader view of the field. It includes new methods for evaluating natural attenuation mechanisms and microbial activity at the lab and field scales. Case studies, act...

  • GEOLOGIC DISPOSAL OF HIGH-LEVEL RADIOACTIVE WASTE
    ROLAND PUSCH / RAYMOND N YONG / MASASHI NAKANO
    Geologic Disposal of High-Level Radioactive Waste examines the fundamental knowledge and conditions to be considered and applied by planners and other professionals when establishing national repository concepts, and constructing repositories for the long-term isolation of highly radioactive waste from surrounding crystalline rock. It emphasizes the important roles of structura...

  • GEOLOGIC DISPOSAL OF LOW- AND INTERMEDIATE-LEVEL RADIOACTIVE WASTE
    ROLAND PUSCH / RAYMOND N. YONG / MASASHI NAKANO
    This book will address concepts and techniques for preparation and disposal of low- (LLW) and intermediate-level (ILW) radioactive waste from the nuclear industry, the weapons industry, university labs, research institutes, and from the commercial industry. It will aid decision-makers in finding optimal technical/economical solutions, including how site investigations, design, ...

  • ENVIRONMENTAL SOIL PROPERTIES AND BEHAVIOUR
    RAYMOND N. YONG / MASASHI NAKANO / ROLAND PUSCH
    From bridges and tunnels to nuclear waste repositories, structures require that soils maintain their design engineering properties if the structures are to reach their projected life spans. The same is true for earth dams, levees, buffers, barriers for landfills, and other structures that use soils as engineered materials. Yet soil, a natural resou ...

  • CONTAINMENT OF HIGH-LEVEL RADIOACTIVE AND HAZARDOUS SOLID WASTES WITH CLAY BARRIERS
    RAYMOND N. YONG / ROLAND PUSCH / MASASHI NAKANO
    One of the principal objections to or problems with the use of nuclear fuel is that a proven method for safe disposal of spent nuclear fuel has yet to be established. The central focus of most schemes underway to dispose of these high-level radioactive wastes relies on clay-based buffers and barriers to isolate spent fuel canisters in borehole ...

  • MICROSTRUCTURE OF SMECTITE CLAYS AND ENGINEERING PERFORMANCE
    ROLAND PUSCH / RAYMOND N. YONG
    Certain wastes such as nuclear wastes, are so hazardous that their disposal creates a major challenge requiring considerable technical skill and understanding. Their effective isolation in the ground depends on the properties of the surrounding clays. This authoritative book explains the detailed function of clay-based engineered barriers, gives a ...

  • GEOENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING
    RAYMOND N. YONG
    Geoenvironmental Engineering: Contaminated Soils, Pollutant Fate, and Mitigation focuses on why soils and sediments remain contaminated. The reader will understand why specific contaminants remain in soils and sediments, how much of a threat they pose to human health and the environment, and what steps to take for mitigation. Subjects covered include the basic properties of soi...
