Pollutants behaviour and temperature effect on chemical piles treated marine clay
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of temperature on the engineering behavior of chemical piles treated clays in the presence of sulphate and chloride contaminated marine environment was investigated. And the test results indicated that the increase in temperature has improved the engineering properties of soil significantly.

Abstract: An attempt to stabilize some soils from failed sections of the Sagamu–Papalanto road, southwestern Nigeria with lime was undertaken with a view to improve the geotechnical properties of the soils. The soils were treated with 0 % to 20 % by mass of lime, compacted at the Modified AASHTO level and subjected to consistency limits, unconfined compressive strength (UCS) and California bearing ratio (CBR) tests. Increasing content of lime addition resulted in soils with reducing plasticity with an optimum range of 6 % to 8 % while the UCS and CBR increased. Furthermore addition of between 6 % and 10 % of lime produced soils with desirable strength for use as base course materials. However despite the continuous increase in CBR with increasing lime addition, none of the soils meet the unsoaked CBR requirement for use as base course materials. However the soils qualify for use as subbase materials. Thus, it can be concluded that, the soils responded positively to lime addition; however the degree of response and the eventual effect on its suitability for use varied from soil to soil.
