  1. 1. Sustainable Environmental Clean-up : Dynamic assessment for sustainable remediation of contaminated sites

    Författare :Mehran Naseri Rad; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; contaminated sites; sustainability assessment; remediation; multicriteria decision analysis; system dynamics; contaminant transport;

    Sammanfattning : Soil and groundwater contamination is an increasingly recognised threat to public health and the environment around the globe. New types of contaminants continue to emerge, and awareness of their threat, continues to develop. Many countries have national clean-up programs with priority lists of the most hazardous contaminated sites. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Assessing Soil Functions for Sustainable Remediation of Contaminated Sites

    Författare :Yevheniya Volchko; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; soil ecosystem services; Contaminated sites soil; minimum data set; remediation; sustainability assessment; soil quality indicators; soil functions;

    Sammanfattning : Soil contamination is a worldwide problem. Soil remediation is often carried out to reduce the risks posed by contaminants in the soil to human health and environment. Contaminant concentration is typically the only soil quality aspect maintained in remediation projects. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Soil Remediation and Sustainable Development : Creating Appropriate Solutions for Marginalized Regions

    Författare :Henrik Haller; Anders Jonsson; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The scope of this doctoral thesis is appropriate soil remediation methods for marginalized regions that go beyond pollution reduction targets and include strategies to support sustainable development. Contaminated soil from industrial or agricultural activities poses potential health threats to animals and humans and also threatens economic systems by making land unsuitable for agriculture and other economic purposes.

  5. 4. Investigating the Relation between Efficient, Effective and Sustainable Remediation of Contaminated Sites

    Författare :Robert Anderson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; effective remediation; multi-criteria decision analysis; efficient remediation; decision support; sustainability assessment; cost-benefit analysis; contaminated sites;

    Sammanfattning : Remediation of contaminated sites reduces negative impacts to humans and the environment, but the process itself is typically associated with high costs to society and large environmental footprints. The sustainable remediation concept has, over the past decade, brought increased attention to the often-overlooked contradictory effects of site remediation. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Gentle Remediation Options (GRO) for Managing Risks and Providing Ecosystem Services at Contaminated Sites

    Författare :Paul David Drenning; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Risk-Based Land Management RBLM ; Brownfields; Sustainable Remediation; Gentle Remediation Options GRO ; Ecosystem Services; Phytomanagement;

    Sammanfattning : Soils are a non-renewable resource and comprise a key component of the world's stock of natural capital. Due to industrialisation, urbanisation and other patterns of unsustainable development, widespread land degradation in the form of contamination, soil sealing, compaction, etc. LÄS MER
