An analysis of using of anthropogenic materials, mainly ashes from Coal Combustion Products (CCP), for dike construction is shown.
Perspectives of anthropogenic materials application in geotechnical engineering and their advantages in sense of the carbon dioxide reduction are discussed.
The development of Technosols from anthropogenic materials and growth of native metal-tolerant plant species could be a sustainable strategy to minimize such risks.
In this context, following various modes of exploitation (e.g. exploitation depth), various rehabilitation options were implemented: no rehabilitation, topsoil transfer, deposits of anthropogenic materials.
Finally the full-scale experiment within the DREDGDIKES Project (www.dredgdikes.eu) is described, which is focused on the new technology with the usage of dredged and anthropogenic materials for construction of dikes.
The groundwater sampled from seepages was free of contamination by anthropogenic materials.
Anthropogenic materials, on the other hand, are those that include plastics which are derived from fossil fuels and are not sustainable.
Each dust sample is a complex mixture containing particles from different minerals mixed with biogenic and anthropogenic materials.
The NLRP3 inflammasome has now been shown to be activated by endogenous particulates, such as uric acid and cholesterol crystals, as well as by anthropogenic materials, such as asbestos and silica [22,45,48,49].
Wind- and vehicle-generated mineral dust from open land and roads is a major source of PM, especially in arid climates, and each dust sample is a complex mixture of different particle shapes and sizes that are derived from various geological minerals, biogenic debris, and anthropogenic materials deposited from the atmosphere.
