Dissemination
The results achieved during the whole research program will be analyzed and organized to draft technical guidelines, with the scope to provide a useful handbook for developing environmental friendly stabilization of soils. These technical specifications will also help in designing the optimal soil-water-binder mixture proportions able to improve the mechanical and hydraulic characteristics of soils with special consideration of the environmental soil characteristics (possible presence of pollutants and their mobility).
Scientific papers on the results of the project will be presented by the PI, AIs and team members at Scientific Conferences and submitted to International peer-reviewed journals. The published papers will be fully available because the authors will choose an Open access option. Links to publications will be available here. In addition, the participation of the members to National and/or International conferences or workshops will help in disseminating the research results to the scientific community.
A specific stand will be set up in the last year of the project at RemTech-Coast Expo in Ferrara (Italy). This expo is the principal international event in Italy on coastal zone and sea management and protection; it brings together the most competitive companies, Universities, research associations and the main institutions of the sector. Therefore, it is a valuable opportunity to disseminate research results relative to dredged sediments. In RemTech past editions, an average of 3000 visitors and 120 stands, coming from Italy and from other countries (e.g. China, Ireland, United Kingdom and Spain), were registered.
A final workshop and related events dedicated to dissemination of the results and of the knowledge gained during the project will be also organized to promote the use of innovative binders in practical civil engineering applications and to foster stakeholder engagement.
All the deliverables foreseen and the pubblication produced in the project wiil made available in print and downloadable here.
