The influence of oil contamination on the geotechnical properties of coastal sediments in the Yellow River Delta, China
Abstract The effect of contamination by crude oil has been assessed using samples from hand dug trial pits in the Hai-gang region of the Yellow River Delta. In addition to electrical resistivity and in situ penetration tests, grain size analysis, Atterberg limits, compaction, direct shear test and a micro-structure scan were undertaken. The results show that contamination was in the shape of a plume and non-uniform to a depth of 1 m. The more heavily polluted soil had a higher clay particle content, liquid and plastic limit and compression coefficient. However, no notable correlations were found between oil contamination and shear strength parameters.
