Enhancing Soil Stabilization with Chitosan Biopolymer IntegrationBy Jyothika T., Arunniya Shob G.S., Megha Rajendran, SigmaSunny T.
Abstract: In this work, clay soil is stabilized using a biocompatible chitosan solution derived from shrimp shell waste. The biopolymer chitosan has attracted attention in the field of geoenvironmental studies because of its possible applications in the absorption of heavy metals, the mitigation of soil erosion, and the improvement of hydraulic conductivity. However, a thorough investigation into its impact on the mechanical properties of soil has not yet been conducted. A …
