Sustainable Use of Sediment Resource in Irrigation Districts from the Lower Yellow River

Abstract:

Large amount of sediment is brought into the canal system along with the Yellow River water irrigation, which causes deposition in ditches, encroachment of arable land, intensification of soil desertification, blocking of drainage riverway and other environmental damages. On the analysis of sediment properties as a natural resource, this article introduces sediment utilization approaches at present such as farmland improvement, embankment reinforcement, construction use and subsidence land filling, which produce ecological and economic benefits and set good examples for the future sustainable utilization of sediment resource in irrigation districts.
