Application of soil nailing technique for protection and preservation historical buildings
PublikacjaSoil nailing is one of the recent in situ techniques used for soil improvement and in stabilizing slopes. The process of soil nailing consists of reinforcing the natural ground with relatively small steel bars or metal rods, grouted in the pre-drilled holes. This method has a wide range of applications for stabilizing deep excavations and steep slopes. Soil nailing has recently become a very common method of slope stabilisation...

Deterioration and Protection of Concrete Elements Embedded in Contaminated Soil: A Review
PublikacjaCoating materials are considered one of the most antique materials of human civilization; they have been used for decoration and the protection of surfaces for millennia. Concrete structures—due to their permanent exposure to different types of environments and contaminants—require the use of coatings that contribute to its preservation by reducing the corrosion of its components (steel and aggregates). This article intends to...

Stability analysis of a road scarp in the Carpathian Mountains and methods of its protection
PublikacjaThe purpose of the study was to analyse the stability of a road scarp endangered by a landslide and to consider some measures for its stabilization. The potential landslide could unfavourably alter the shape of the slope, thus a religious sanctuary situated above the slope. The present research has resulted in suggestions of possible protection methods, namely, drainage, soil nailing, installation of piles, supporting the scarp...

Study of Soil Temperature and Moisture Changes in a Physical Model of an Underground Cable Line
PublikacjaThe ampacity of power cables is highly dependent on the thermal resistivity of the soil in which they are laid. The lower it is, the higher this ampacity. The thermal resistivity of the soil decreases as its moisture increases. Therefore, it is preferable that the soil around the cables has high moisture. Unfortunately, the heat generated in heavily loaded cables causes the migration of moisture from the surrounding soil, which...

Effect of soil on the capacity of viscous dampers between adjacent buildings
PublikacjaThis study investigated the seismic pounding of two adjacent buildings considering soil–structure interaction (SSI). A comprehensive parametric study of buildings with different heights was performed to reveal the pounding-involved behaviour considering the soil effect. Wavelet transform has been conducted to gain insight into the differences in the frequency contents of the impact forces between fixed- and flexible-base adjacent...

White cabbage in the biofumigation process- expectations and perspectives
PublikacjaHealth risks related to common use of pesticides and artificial fertilizers raised the interest in alteranative methods of crop protection, among them biofumigation is becoming the most promising. In this process certain natural compounds, mainly degradation products of glucosinolates produced by Brassica species are used to combat pests and microorganisms attacking crops. Increased synthesis of these bioactive compounds can be...

Long-Term Impact of Wind Erosion on the Particle Size Distribution of Soils in the Eastern Part of the European Union
PublikacjaWind erosion is the leading cause of soil degradation and air pollution in many regionsof the world. As wind erosion is controlled by climatic factors, research on this phenomenon isurgently needed in soil and land management in order to better adapt to climate change. In thispaper, the impact of wind erosion on the soil surface in relation to particle size distribution wasinvestigated. Changes in percentage of sand, silt and...

O problemie kolmatacji geowłóknin stosowanych w drenażach
PublikacjaSystemy drenażowe występujące przy obiektach drogowych są niezwykle istotnym elementem tych budowli. Jednym z materiałów, które obecnie powszechnie stosowane są w systemach drenażowych są geowłókniny. Ich zadaniem jest zabezpieczenie odwadnianego gruntu przed procesem sufozji, jak również ochrona drenażu przed zamuleniem przy jednoczesnym zachowaniu wodoprzepuszczalności. Typową trwałość drenażu, w zależności od rozwiązań, szacować...

Green Aspects of Miniaturized Sample Preparation Techniques
PublikacjaCorrect monitoring and control of the state of the environment and scientific research on the subject of environmental protection often require that determinations of compounds present at very low concentrations be made in samples characterized by a matrix of complex composition (e.g., biological samples, water and soil samples). Moreover, due to the limited number of analytical techniques which are sufficiently sensitive to conduct...

Effect of solar radiation on current-carrying capacity of PVC-insulated power cables – the numerical point of view
PublikacjaPower cables are usually buried in the soil, which results in their relatively high current-carrying capacity. However, there are cases in which the starting/final section of a cable line runs along a pole of an overhead power line. Power cables can be directly exposed to solar radiation then, and this negatively influences their current-carrying capacity as well as estimated life of the cables’ insulation. An analysis of thermal...

Application of persulfate-based oxidation processes to address diverse sustainability challenges: A critical review
PublikacjaOver the past years, persulfate (PS) is widely applied due to their high versatility and efficacy in decontamination and sterilization. While treatment of organic chemicals, remediation of soil and groundwater, sludge treatment, disinfection on pathogen microorganisms have been covered by most published reviews, there are no comprehensive and specific reviews on its application to address diverse sustainability challenges, including...

Miniaturized solid phase microextratcion
PublikacjaWithout any doubt analytical laboratories have an essential role in environmental protection due to the fact that they takes an active part in the monitoring pollutants present in air, water or soil. From the other side, the analytical activity is involved in the generation of toxic waste what is associated with the use of not eco-friendly reagents and solvents. For these reasons, green analytical chemistry (GAC) was introduced...

Evaluation of surfactant and biosurfactant mixture usefulness in oil removal from soil, based on physicochemical studies and flushing experiments
PublikacjaZbadano aktywność powierzchniową i właściwości zwilżające surfaktantu niejonowego - Rokanolu NL6, biosurfaktantu - JBR 425 i ich mieszanin. Na podstawie tych badań określono zdolność tych surfaktantów do usuwania oleju syntetycznego (PAO 6) z piasku. Roztwory surfaktantów zostały użyte do przemywania złoża piaskowego w kolumnie oraz odmywania piasku metodą dynamiczną. Testy kolumnowe z roztworami Rokanolu NL6 i JBR 425 dały niskie...

Converting beach wrack into a resource as a challenge for the Baltic Sea (an overview)
PublikacjaThe paper distinguishes beach wrack, the marine generated organic part of beach cast, as a separate management object and discusses research questions related to its management and economically viable use. Based on experiences from the Baltic Sea and existing practices from countries with different management systems clear distinction between the management of natural and anthropogenic components of cast material is seen as an...

Effect of MgSO4 nutrition on Theobroma cacao L. susceptibility to Phytophthora megakarya infection
PublikacjaA new strategy to reduce the severity of black pod disease (BPD) in T. cacao plants using MgSO4 nutrition was investigated. The dynamics of the tolerance to BPD of 18 susceptible T. cacao plantlets coming from the cross (♀SNK64 × ♂UPA14) was monitored during weekly (8 weeks) supply of MgSO4 into the soil. Prior to MgSO4 application, disease scores of the 18 plantlets (in six sets of three plantlets per set) were varying between...
