A Qualitative Approach for the Performance Evaluation of Artificially Prepared Water Resistant Fine Soil

Abstract:

Water resistant fine soil is required to be prepared for the development of an oil contamination control system, which is currently part of an ongoing research topic at the University of Tokyo. For this purpose, Fujinomori clay has been chemically treated in a laboratory to create a form of water proofing on the clay particles. The effectiveness of water repellent properties of the treated Fujinomori clay is articulated by using model tests and image analysis. The basic principle of the image analysis is the variation in soil color, with respect to moisture / fluid content.
