This is the result of research carried out by the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (DGCE) at the School of Mines of Douai for more than ten years on the theme of using dredged sediments. It is coherent with French regulations and the methodological framework (ADEME, 2010; SETRA, 2011) that prevailed at the time of the work. The proposed methodology was developed by the Ecole des Mines de Douai as part of France&#8217;s SEDIMATERIAUX project and may be reviewed in the light of feedback received at the French national or European level.<\/p>\n<p>SedNet promotes since 2004 beneficial uses of dredged sediments, in a perspective of sustainable development and of circular economy. Road engineering is one of these beneficial uses, as it reduces both waste and mineral extraction.<\/p>\n<p>This guide is not intended for use of sediments abstracted from a river system. It is only intended for harbour and canal dredgings, where restitution to river systems is usually not possible &#8211; at least economically.<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise, it should be first considered to reintroduce them where the river system may need them, before considering any engineering use.<\/p>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This recenly published\u00a0 Methodological Guide\u00a0 presents how dredged sediments can be beneficially used in road engineering with a view to sustainable development and to the protection of the environment and of populations.
