  1. 1. Green liquor dregs-amended till to cover sulfidic mine waste

    Author : Susanne Nigéus; Christian Maurice; Thomas Pabst; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Geochemistry; Tillämpad geokemi;

    Abstract : The mining industry produces massive amounts of waste that without treatment and in contact with oxygen can result in acid rock drainage (ARD) and increased leaching of metals. In Sweden, the common way to manage the mine waste after closure is to apply a dry coverage on top of the waste deposition. READ MORE

  2. 2. Recycling of green liquor dregs in cover application on acid generating mine waste

    Author : Susanne Nigéus; Jan Laue; Christian Maurice; Jenny Lindblom; Helge Hellevang; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Geoteknik; Soil Mechanics;

    Abstract : The mining industry generates massive amounts of waste that without treatment and in contact with atmospheric oxygen can cause the formation of acid rock drainage (ARD). In Sweden, the most common reclamation measure for mine waste is to apply a multi-layer cover on top of the waste deposit. READ MORE

  3. 3. Application of the SASW-technique in geotechnical in-situ testing

    Author : Mats Svensson; Institutioner vid LTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; teknisk geologi; Hydrogeologi; Spectral Analysis of Surface Waves; shear modulus; SASW; multichannel; inversion; Gmax; teknisk geografi; Environmental technology; pollution control; Miljöteknik; kontroll av utsläpp; geographical and geological engineering; Hydrogeology; Civil engineering; hydraulic engineering; offshore technology; soil mechanics; Väg- och vattenbyggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : With the main aim to test the applicability of the surface wave seismic technique Spectral Analysis of Surface Waves (SASW), used for determination of the shear stiffness (shear modulus - Gmax), four areas of applications have been studied. The four areas have been sites with natural geological conditions, sites where non destructive testing is necessary, pavement testing and multichannel testing. READ MORE

  4. 4. Phytophthora and Oak Decline - Impact on Seedlings and Mature Trees in Forest Soils

    Author : Ulrika Jönsson Belyazid; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Växtekologi; Plant ecology; microbial competition; carbon allocation; nutrients; water availability; soil chemistry; mature oaks; seedlings; acid soils; Phytophthora quercina; Quercus robur;

    Abstract : This thesis investigated the occurrence of soilborne species of the plant pathogenic genus Phytophthora in southern Swedish oak forests and their possible involvement in southern Swedish oak decline. The emphasis was on the impact of P. quercina on Quercus robur in acid forest soils. READ MORE
