It is an indisputable fact that any environmental clean-up technology generating certain kind of effective result would be easily supported. One of them includes Permeable reactive bio-barrier which is an innovative technology started from 90’s to treat a variety of contaminants along the natural...

Two novel materials have been developed and tested in initial studies for the in-situ generation of sorption and reactive barriers for subsurface water treatment at low cost by introducing sorbents or reagents via injection wells. Both materials are based on finely-ground activated carbon with a...

Laboratory column tests were conducted to study the efficiency of lignite fly ash barriers in removing heavy metal ions, such as Fe, Zn, Mn, Ni, Cd, Co, Al and Cu, present in high concentrations in acidic leachates produced in mining and waste disposal sites. The experimental configuration comprised...
