What (who) is soils engineering - definition

SOIL TYPE
Acid sulphate soil; Acid sulphate soils; Acid sulfate soils
  • Polders with acid sulfate soils in Guinea Bissau along a sea-arm amidst mangroves
  • Sea water is admitted to a bunded polder on acid sulfate soil for soil improvement and weed control, Guinea Bissau
  • Top - monosulfidic material under water. Bottom - same monosulfidic material 5 min after water was removed. Colour change from black to brown is the result of the rapid oxidation of iron monosulfides. Scale bar represents 0.5mm.

Wikipedia

Acid sulfate soil

Acid sulfate soils are naturally occurring soils, sediments or organic substrates (e.g. peat) that are formed under waterlogged conditions. These soils contain iron sulfide minerals (predominantly as the mineral pyrite) and/or their oxidation products. In an undisturbed state below the water table, acid sulfate soils are benign. However, if the soils are drained, excavated or otherwise exposed to air, the sulfides react with oxygen to form sulfuric acid.

Release of this sulfuric acid from the soil can in turn release iron, aluminium, and other heavy metals and metalloids (particularly arsenic) within the soil. Once mobilized in this way, the acid and metals can create a variety of adverse impacts: killing vegetation, seeping into and acidifying groundwater and surface water bodies, killing fish and other aquatic organisms, and degrading concrete and steel structures to the point of failure.
