Environmental Dredging of a Chromium Contaminated Fjord
The sediments in Valdemarsviken fjord in Sweden were contaminated with chromium from the discharge of untreated wastewater from tannery operations decades ago. The contaminated sediments were dredged, dewatered, solidified and placed as a engineered fill in a nearshore area.
Long-Term Effects of Maintenance Dredging on Turbidity
Maintenance dredging is required in many estuaries worldwide to provide access to ports and inland waterways. A newly developed dredging module is able to capture the two fundamental processes necessary to model the long-term impacts of dredging on turbidity.
Environmental Equipment
Environmental dredging equipment is specially designed or adapted to remediate waterways that contain contaminated sediments.
