In the aging of oil-contaminated soils, the ambient conditions that the soils are naturally exposed to can affect soil properties over time while most studies stored the prepared samples in the laboratory with well-controlled environments. The tests on samples kept in the laboratory cannot thus reflect the actual behavior. This study compares the time-dependent characteristics of static and dynamic parameters of crude oil-contaminated sands stored in the laboratory and left in natural conditions using cyclic simple shear tests. Crude oil-contaminated samples prepared from sands with various gradations with 6% crude oil contamination were held in natural and laboratory environments for up to 24 months and tested at 3-month intervals under a constant void ratio and relative density of 60% to highlight the impacts of stored conditions of the samples in conjunction with the aging on shear modulus, damping ratio, and friction angle of sands. With the long investigation period in the study, the fluctuation of properties during the first year due to seasonal change can be seen. The testing results indicate that the impact of contaminants in the sands reduces with the aging effect. Both aging and stored conditions had the greatest effect on the static and dynamic parameters of coarse sand. While the smallest effect is seen for dynamic parameters of fine sand. The study provides useful information and necessary considerations for using oil-contaminated soils safely.

Graphene (GR) has huge industrial and biomedical potential, and its adverse effect on soil microorganisms has been evaluated in ecotoxicological studies. These studies focused on single exposure to GR, but repeated exposures with low concentration are more likely to occur under actual exposure scenario. In this study, we compared the impact of single and repeated exposures of GR on structure, abundance and function of soil bacterial community based on soil enzyme activity and high-throughput sequencing. The results displayed that after 4 days of incubation the activities of urease and fluorescein diacetate esterase increased by approximately 12% and 4% upon repeated exposure to GR (biweekly 15 mg doses GR for the two-exposure experiment, 10 mg doses GR for the three-exposure experiment, resulting in the same final concentration of 300 mg/kg), respectively. Instead, the activities of urease and fluorescein diacetate esterase decreased by 13% and 6% upon single exposure (30 mg for the single-exposure experiment), respectively. As the incubation time increased to 60 days, these activities showed little difference. The alpha diversity of soil bacterial community under repeated exposures increased more than that under single exposure, demonstrating that a low concentration chronic exposure to GR increase the diversity within a specific bacterial community. The PCoA and sample level clustering tree showed single exposure to GR after 4 days alter the soil bacterial community to some extent. During the entire incubation process, no matter what kind of exposure scenarios to GR, the majority of bacterial phylotypes at the phylum level had no great change except for Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria according to the relative abundance of phylotypes. These results elucidated the repeated exposures to GR increased the metabolic activity and diversity of the soil microbial community as compared with single exposure. This study can provide a new perspective on the impact of carbon nanomaterials on soil microbial community.

In recent years, magnesium oxide (MgO) has been considered by researchers as a new agent for the remediation of contaminated soils. In this paper, the effect of MgO and hydrated lime on the remediation of a clay soil contaminated with MTBE (Methyl Butyl Ether) was studied. The contaminated soil was made artificially by adding 2.25 g MTBE per kg of soil. MgO with different percentages (0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 5, 10, and 20%) and lime with 2.5, 5, and 10% percentages were added to the natural and contaminated soil. The results showed that by increasing the percentage of MgO or lime and curing time, the strength of natural and contaminated soil was improved. The results of the leaching tests showed that by adding 5, 10, or 20% MgO, all the existing MTBE in the soil samples were removed while for the smaller percentages of MgO (0.125, 0.25, and 0.5%) there was a decrease in the concentration of MTBE with time. The results of the leaching tests also revealed that the hydrated lime was effective in reducing the concentration of MTBE. The amount of reduction in the concentration of MTBE was dependent on the percentage of MgO or hydrated lime. The comparison of the results of the two binders showed that MgO was more effective than the hydrated lime in removing the MTBE from the soil.
