Land Reclamation and Artificial Islands from Building Waste: Hydrotechnical Methods and Geoecological Aspects

  • Published:
Power Technology and Engineering Aims and scope

In the field of hydraulic engineering, a topic of current interest is the reclamation of land and creation of artificial islands using construction waste. When implementing such projects, it is necessary to minimize possible negative environmental consequences. To this end, it is proposed to develop projects of artificial land and artificial islands in the form of controlled natural and technical systems, by which means the environment can be controlled and improved.
