Nano-Enhanced Electrokinetic Conditioning of Expansive Soils Using MgO Nanoparticles

Abstract

AbstractThis study evaluated the stabilization of expansive soils using a three-phase approach combining nanoconditioning and electrokinetics. Phase 1 assessed the effects of nanoconditioning through lab tests, comparing MgO and SiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) at ...Practical ApplicationsOur study demonstrates that electrokinetic nanoconditioning with MgO NPs is a viable and sustainable approach for stabilizing expansive soils, particularly in settings where traditional methods are impractical. This technique ...
