Fundamentals of Geoenvironmental Engineering: Understanding Soil, Water, and Pollutant Interaction and Transport examines soil-water-pollutant interaction, including physico-chemical processes that occur when soil is exposed to various contaminants. Soil characteristics relevant to remedial techniques are explored, providing foundations for the correct process selection. Built upon the authors' extensive experience in research and practice, the book updates and expands the content to include current processes and pollutants. The book discusses propagation of soil pollution and soil characteristics relevant to remedial techniques. Practicing geotechnical and environmental engineers can apply the theory and case studies in the book directly to current projects.
The book first discusses the stages of economic development and their connections to the sustainability of the environment. Subsequent chapters cover waste and its management, soil systems, soil-water and soil-pollutant interactions, subsurface transport of pollutants, role of groundwater, nano-, micro- and biologic pollutants, soil characteristics that impact pollution diffusion, and potential remediation processes like mechanical, electric, magnetic, hydraulic and dielectric permittivity of soils.
- Presents a clear understanding of the propagation of pollutants in soils
- Identifies the physico-chemical processes in soils
- Covers emerging pollutants (nano-, micro- and biologic contaminants)
- Features in-depth coverage of hydraulic, electrical, magnetic and dielectric permittivity characteristics of soils and their impact on remedial technologies
earned his PhD in Civil Engineering from McGill University, Canada. He was then employed by McGill University
as the associate director of the Geotechnical Research Centre and as lecturer in the Department of Civil Engineering
and Applied Mechanics. He has also held many senior positions in the United Arab Emirates, including United Arab
Emirates University (Deputy Assistant Provost for Research, Research Director, Director of Research Support and
Services Unit, and Professor of Geotechnical and Geo-Environmental Engineering) and Abu Dhabi University (Dean
of College of Research and Graduate Studies).
Over the years, he was granted 10 patents, filed/published 8 patents; authored and coauthored 7 books; edited 11
books-published by Elsevier, Taylor & Francis, Balkema, A.A. and J. Ross Publishing. In addition, he has also published
more than 250 papers in refereed journals and international refereed conference proceedings. Furthermore, he
has been the recipient of several university and nationwide research accolades.
He is currently the editor-in-chief of Developments in Arid Regions Research Series Published by Taylor & Francis;
editorial board member of Journal of Environmental Geotechnics, Institute of Civil Engineering; executive board member
of Arab Healthy Water Association, and of the International Association for Computer Methods and Advances in
Geomechanics; editorial board member, International Journal of Recent Patents on Engineering; and the former editorin-
chief of the Emirates Journal for Engineering Research.
