Short term consolidation of contaminated clay soil

The petroleum industry's rapid growth causes several effects on the environment especially towards soil properties. This case puts a number of environmental and geotechnical problems from accidental spills of oil, leaking and its derivatives. Petrol, diesel and tars are examples of contaminant...
