Research on Techniques for Treating Bottom Sediment at Enclosed Water Areas

One of the major causes of water pollution is contaminated eutrophic lake sediment, which causes nitrogen and phosphorus elution. A main countermeasure in Japan against contaminated sediment is dredging. New sediment treatment method development is required due to new problems such as biodiversity conservation, toxic substances, and endocrine disrupters. A sediment treatment method is studied by the authors in this project that causes river inflow sediment countermeasures, method standardization for sediment treatment technique evaluation, bottom sediment risk management and stabilization, and less benthnic ecosystem damage.
