Summary of Available Guidance and Best Practices for Determining Suitability of Dredged Material for Beneficial Uses
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present guidance and best practices useful to evaluate dredged material from ongoing dredging projects or CDFs for beneficial uses (BUs), including habitat development, beach nourishment, aquaculture, parks and recreation, agriculture, forestry, and horticulture, Strip mine reclamation and solid waste management, 7) Shoreline stabilization and erosion control, 8) Construction and industrial use, 9) Material transfer, and 10) Multiple purpose.
Impacts of Sorption on In Situ Bioremediation of Explosives-Contaminated Soils.
TL;DR: In this paper, desorption kinetics and isotherms were determined on four explosives contaminated soils using shake tests, and column leaching experiments were performed using one of these soil and aqueous challenge over a period of 35 days.

Contaminant leaching model for dredged material disposal facilities
Paul R. Schroeder,Nadim M. Aziz +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a screening-level tool to simulate contaminant leaching from a confined disposal facility (CDF) for dredged material, which combines hydraulics, hydrology, and equilibrium partitioning.

A solution of the differential equation of longitudinal dispersion in porous media
Akio Ogata,R.B. Banks +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a more direct method is presented for solving the differential equation governing the process of dispersion in a semi-infinite medium having a plane source at z = 0.

Sorption kinetics of hydrophobic organic compounds to natural sediments and soils
Shian-Chee Wu,Philip M. Gschwend +1 more
TL;DR: A closed-loop-stripping apparatus with a photoionization detector operating in-line was used to examine the effects of sorbate hydrophobicity, sorbent particle size, and system temperature on solid-solution exchange over times of seconds to days, indicating that a single effective diffusivity parameter can be used to quantify the sorption kinetics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validity of the local equilibrium assumption for modeling sorbing solute transport through homogeneous soils
TL;DR: In this article, a method is described whereby formulas for solute breakthrough curve time moments can be determined without knowledge of the nalytical solution to the mass transport model, and criteria for local equilibrium to be valid are derived by comparing the time moment formulas for the nonequilibrium and equilibrium models.

On the constancy of sediment-water partition coefficients of hydrophobic organic pollutants
Philip M. Gschwend,Shian-Chee Wu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that if precautions are taken to eliminate or account for nonsettling microparticles or organic macromolecules that remain in the aqueous phase during laboratory sorption tests, the observed partition coefficients (Kp or Koc) for a group of model hydrophobic organic compounds (PCBs) are found to remain constant over a wide range of solid-to-solution ratios.
