Remediation of Lead Contaminated Soil Using Olivine
Amidst the numerous techniques of remediation researched, the immobilization technique achieved through solidification/stabilization appears to be most effective due to its ability to entrap the waste within a solid cementitious matrix and its cost effectiveness. Due to growing environmental concerns, there is a need to replace conventional stabilization binders with more efficient, environment-friendly stabilizer. In this study, artificially lead contaminated Kaolinite is treated using different concentrations of Olivine, a natural mineral. The effectiveness of the treatment is assessed through unconfined compressive strength test and column leachate test. The optimum concentration of Olivine for remediation is determined. The experimental results show that olivine can be effectively used for the treatment of lead contaminated soil.
