The performance of an environmentally friendly biopolymer synthesised from secondary
resources to overcome the wind erosion of sandy soil was investigated in this study. The …

Due to the environmental impacts of conventional soil stabilization materials, such as
cement, ongoing efforts have been carried out by different researchers to find alternative …

Recently, chitosan biopolymer has attracted several research attentions in
geoenvironmental applications such as absorption of heavy metals in contaminated soils …

The strength of marl soils decreases drastically in the variation of the water content. This has
caused such soil to be introduced as problematic soil in geotechnical projects. In the present …

The current study evaluated the potential of crustacean polysaccharide and protein-based
biopolymers, namely, chitosan and casein, in ameliorating a low organic soil. The inclusion …

Civil and geotechnical researchers are searching for economical alternatives to replace
traditional soil stabilizers such as cement, which have negative impacts on the environment …

Wind-driven sand erosion is the leading primary reason of earth deterioration in dry lands
and a major global issue. Desert dust emissions and topsoil degradation caused by wind …

Nowadays, strength characteristics of soils have more importance due to increasing building
loads. In some projects, geotechnical properties of the soils are be improved using man …

Wind-induced soil erosion is a major global misfortune, which obliterates nearly one-third of
worldwide soil. The windswept sand particles cover large areas including highways, and …

Sustainable engineering discourages the use of conventional soil stabilizers such as lime
and cement owing to their higher carbon emission rates. To address these challenges, many …
