Charge Orientation in Soil

• Negative charges are in majority at the flat surfaces of a particlea particle

• Positive charges in lower t ticoncentration are more

common at the edges or irregular surfaces

4. Polymer vs. soil condition24

Interaction of PolyMud® to Soil

Due to the high concentration of negative charges within the soil particles the binding of the soil to the the

l t i ipolymer matrix is conveniently achieved through the positive chargescharges.

Water molecules release is avoided. Thisaffinity allows for the soil to be filled withseveral polymer filaments preventing itsf ifragmentation.

There are no specific requirements on ground water. Numerous types of groundwater are faced throughout excavations.

POLYMER VS GROUND WATER

No free water available

G3 System is tolerant to water intrusionsy

Water with Acid pH have to adjusted at ph >6

Polymer absorbs water and keeps it

Bentonite has free water and cake is permeable whichallows for aggressive water to disrupt bentonite

Removal and disposalREMOVAL

G3 polymers need not to be to removed from site

REMOVAL

After a simple and fast treatment G3 polymers can be disposed on site

Disposal procedure (30min):

1. Correct pH to 6 – 9 with hydrochloric acid (HCl)

DISPOSAL

1. Correct pH to 6 9 with hydrochloric acid (HCl)

2. Break the polymer chain with Calcium Hypochlorite

After the treatment the polymer is ready to be disposed on thei t ith t i k ( it i il)environment without any risk (city sewage, rivers, on soil)

Environmental issues and legal regulationENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

G3 polymers are environmentally friendly products

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

GEO’s products are not contaminants, not pollutants and respect theenvironment

LEGAL REGULATION

GEO’s products where approved to be disposed on the environment in:

Example: Spain (CEDEX – Government lab for civil engineering andExample: Spain (CEDEX – Government lab for civil engineering andenvironment)

GEO is keen to support further studies in other countries11.Environmental Issues and Legal regulation

Storage and storage lifeSTORAGE

G3 polymers after mixing may be stored in slurry tanks ready to use onsite No special storage requirements

STORAGE

site. No special storage requirements.

AlfaBond should not be kept in negative temperatures below -10ºC

We have never observed slurry degradation with time

STORAGE LIFE

On the Cadiz bay Bridge (Marine Works- Spain) three marine pile wereleft open for 3 months for trial purposes.

After 3 months piles were stable and the slurry kept the samet bili ti tistabilization properties.
