DESCRIPTION:Soil Mixing Technology (SMT) has recently emerged as a cost ef
 fective\, efficient\, versatile and low risk method for the implementation
  of a range of in-situ remediation treatments. Notwithstanding its increas
 ing popularity due to its simple process and low cost\, the real time perf
 ormance and the long-term durability and the rate of contaminants released
  from S/S-treated waste materials remain uncertain.\n\nThis PhD research f
 ocuses on the long-term and time-related performance of in-situ applicatio
 n of SMT for Stabilisation/Solidification and Ground Improvement purposes.
   The research will address both real time and long-term samples\, to help
  understand the binder-contaminant interactions and provide the much neede
 d validation of the longevity of the technology.  The sites involved in th
 is research are the SMiRT Castleford site and the West Drayton site\, each
  with a different range of organic and inorganic contaminants. The filed s
 tudies were then followed by a laboratory study to further understand soil
 \, binder and contaminants interaction mechanism.\n
