Contaminated sediments in aquatic environments are a pressing concern, posing significant risks to ecosystems and public health. The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is at the forefront of addressing this critical issue. In the ERDC Environmental Laboratory, engineers are developing innovative solutions to mitigate the impact of these contaminants, working to protect both the environment and communities that rely on clean water.

In addition to contaminated sediments, the lab also addresses the management of dredged materials. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dredges millions of cubic yards of sediment annually to maintain navigable waters. Finding sustainable uses for this material is essential. Watch to learn more.
