Bridges are critical and valuable components in any road and rail transportation network. Therefore bridge remediation has always been a top priority for asset managers and engineers, but identifying the nature of true defect deterioration and associated remediation treatments remains a complex task. Nowadays Decision Support Systems (DSS) are widely used to assist decision makers across an extensive spectrum of unstructured decision environments. The main objective of this research is to develop a requirements-driven methodology for bridge monitoring and maintenance which has the ability to assess the bridge condition and find the best remediation treatments using Simple Multi Attribute Rating Technique (SMART); with the aim of maintaining a bridge within acceptable limits of safety, serviceability and sustainability.

The remediation of railroad contaminated soil is gaining wide attention, recently. In railroad field, modification of diesel supply field, equipment of roll pad, FRP panel, and iron pannel under diesel locomotive storages are used for the prevention of contamination expansions. However, cheap and efficient remediation technology has not been suggested yet. In this study, the contaminated ballast was remediated by blasting technology. Because the contaminants mainly resides on the surface of ballast, blasting these contaminants make it available to recycle the ballast. We carried out the remediation of oil-contaminated ballasts using the blasting technology, and we could remediate them nicely. This technology is expected to be used for the cheap and quick remediation of contaminated ballast.

The aim of this study was to analyse the cost-benefit-ratio of a soil remediation project. The target of the study was the 'Altablagerung Osnabrueck-Wueste' the largest inhabited former landfill site in Germany. The determination of benefit resulting from the soil remediation was quantified with the help of willingness-to-pay(WTP) analysis (contingent valuation method, CVM). 400 households participated in the survey. The average WTP was 6.5 Euro per household per month or 78 Euro per house-hold per year. The projected benefit generated by the remediation (consumer value) for the population in the landfill area was determined to be 0.7 million Euro per year. Factors which influence the will-ingness to pay were evaluated. The most important factors were age, garden use and the prevailing concern about personal health. A computation of the cost-benefit relationship was made on the basis of three different scenarios, which differed in terms of the projected benefits. Finally the economical efficiency of the project was determined. With a projection of 18 years and upwards the remediation of the soil is economically worthwhile.

In treatment of contaminated ground by electrokinetic remediation, pH control is the main prolllem for enhancinfi remediation efficiency. In this study, analysed pH variation characteristics according to contaminant(Pb$^{2+}$) concentration and estimated remediation efficiency with organic acid to prevent precipitation in cathode due to hydroxide ion occurrence. Because most of transported Pb$^{2+}$ is precipitatecl according as pH is increased at specimen adjacent to cathode reservoir, little magnitude of Pb$^{2+}$ is flowed out of specimen.cimen.

After kaolin clay was compulsorily contaminated by Sr$^{2+}$ solution, the remediation characteristics by electrokinetic method were analyzed. Meanwhile, the numerical code for analysis of electrokinetic migration was developed for modelling of the soil remediation. Experimental results are as follows After 3 day remidiation under 40 voltage, the front part of experimental cell was almost decontaminated, but the behind part didn't almost be decontaminated. Accordingly, the total remediation ratio of Sr$^{2+}$ from cell soil was about 42.6 %. Also, the total Sr$^{2+}$ remediation ratio from cell soil was about 84.8 % after 6 days, and about 97.1 % after 7 days. Meanwhile, the values calculated by the developed code almost agreed with experimental values.ues.

This paper investigated remediation options for contaminated sediments with heavy metals. Twenty three sediment samples were taken from three different depths of 0.5m, 1.5m and 2.5m. The concentration of Heavy metals Cu, Pb, and Hg were measured. The concentration of copper far exceeded the Sediment Quality Guideline in U.S.A and Interim Sediment Quality Guidelines in Canada. Therefore, remediation of the sediments is requried to protect the benthos. Two remediation options were suggested : dredging of the organic sediments as deep as about 85cm followed by surface covers with clean soil, and in-situ stabilization of tile sediments using lime or cement followed by surface cover with clean soil.

Surfactant-enhanced electrokinetic (EK) remediation is an emerging technology that can effectively remove hydrocarbons from low-permeability soils. In this study, the electrokinetic remediation using Calfax 16L-35 was conducted for the removal of phenanthrene from kaolinite. An anionic surfactant Calfax 16L-35 was used at concentrations of 5, 15, and 30g/L to enhance the solubility of phenanthrene. When the surfactant solution was applied to EK system, low electrical potential gradient was maintained because of its ions. Even when the surfactant concentration was high, the removal efficiency of phenanthrene was low After the operation, most of surfactants were remained in soil and there were few in effluent. This phenomena was observed because the migration of Calfax 16L-35 from cathode to anode was predominant over electroosmotic flow which moved in opposite direction. Therefore, the anionic surfactant Calfax 16L-35 is considered to be improper in surfactant - enhanced electrokinetic remediation.

Groundwater development and use have been increasing in Korea causing frequent occurrences of related hazards such as groundwater level decline, land subsidence, and groundwater contamination. To tackle these groundwater problems, central and local governments have set-up and maintained many groundwater monitoring programs such as the National Groundwater Monitoring Network and the Groundwater Quality Monitoring Network, which collect very valuable data on the overall status of domestic groundwater to aid proper groundwater management. However, several problems mainly related to the remediation of contaminated groundwater remain unresolved. Recently, there have been some incidents related to the contamination of groundwater, and these have drawn the concern of the Korean people. Although groundwater contamination has been investigated in detail, actual groundwater remediation work has not yet been implemented. The remediation of the contaminated groundwater must begin immediately in order to sustain the eco-system service of clean groundwater and enhance the welfare of the Korean people.

The aim of this review article is to summarize the role of titanium oxide ($TiO_2$) nanomaterials in the remediation of the aquatic environment contaminated with various emerging pollutants. The advanced oxidation process led by the semiconductor $TiO_2$ is an impetus in the remediation technology. Therefore, a vast number of literature works are available in this area. Further, the role of modified $TiO_2$ or thin film materials were discussed in the review. Also, the Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) effect of using noble metaldoped $TiO_2$ played an interesting role in the remediation process.
