Editorial Reviews
From Book News, Inc.
Sharma, a consultant in geoenvironmental and geotechnical
engineering, and Reddy (civil and environmental engineering,
University of Illinois) outline environmental laws and regulations,
provide geochemical and geotechnical background, and explain
fundamentals of groundwater flow and contaminant transport in
this resource for students and professionals in environmental,
geotechnical, and civil engineering and for environmental regulators
and administrators at local, state, and federal levels. After chemical,
geochemical, and geotechnical background, the book examines
sources of contamination, risk assessment, and remediation
technologies, then presents information on the design and
evaluation of landfills and surface impoundments. Final chapters
describe emerging technologies such as beneficial uses of closed
landfills, recycling bioreactors, and in- situ capping of subaquatic
waste sediments. Example problems, cases, and questions are
included.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Description:
Geoenvironmental Engineering covers the application of basic
geological and hydrological science, including soil and rock
mechanics and groundwater hydrology, to any number of different
environmental problems.
* Includes end-of-chapter summaries, design examples and
worked-out numerical problems, and problem questions.
* Offers thorough coverage of the role of geotechnical engineering
in a wide variety of environmental issues.
* Addresses such issues as remediation of in-situ hazardous waste,
the monitoring and control of groundwater pollution, and the
creation and management of landfills and other above-ground and
in-situ waste containment systems.
