This paperwork aims to present the correlation between the Modulus of Deformation, E as a physical parameter and the internal friction angle of the soil, ? as a resisting parameter of soils. Assigning the resisting parameters to soils shall be reliable and when there is a suspicion in their values derived out of a test, than they shall be compared with other tests used to determine the shear resistance. To give the correlation between the Modulus of Deformation, E and the internal friction angle, ? the results obt...

Removal of potentially harmful As compounds by adsorption onto biosorbents is a cost-effective alternative to the conventional treatment methods. Peatlands can accumulate arsenic originating from both natural and anthropogenic sources [1-3]. Wetland soils and sediments are subject to frequent changes in redox conditions, driven by fluctuations in the water table and shifts in biological activity. Under oxic conditions, natural organic matter (NOM) promotes arsenic release from metal-(hydr)oxides, thereby enhancing...
