Dewaterability potential of anaerobic digestate and biomass ash blends using polymer dose approach

The dataset contains the chemical composition of anaerobic digestates derived from source-segregated food waste & agro-waste, with and without biomass ash, after the addition commercial polymer...

The Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra of poly(hydroxybutyrate)-based systems with clay additives changing crystallisation kinetics recorded at ambient temperature

The dataset contains spectra of Poly(hydroxybutyrate) – PHB – systems performed at ambient temperature. The data was collected using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), using two types...

Ground Movements: Shrink/Swell Clays Project

The main aim of the project is to determine the shrinkage and swelling properties of UK clays and mudrocks and to investigate the relationships between them. Thus leading to a better understanding...

Engineering geology of tropical red clay soils

Dataset comprises the results of a study into the engineering geological characteristics of tropical red clay soils, funded by the Overseas Development Administration. The geotechnical properties...

Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Mineral Safeguarding Areas - Brick Clay only

Experimental direct shear friction dataset for synthetic clay gouges (NERC grant NE/L002469/1)

Friction coefficient and frictional stability (rate & state parameter) data for triaxially compressed direct shear experiments on kaolinite-rich china clay and Mg-montmorillonite fault gouges...

Mg and Li isotope data on laboratory clay minerals and metadata (NERC grant NE/M001865/1)

Clay minerals (smectites) were synthesised experimentally to determine isotope fractionation factors (Li and Mg). The data are provided here. Interpretation is ongoing.

Experimental friction dataset for heterogeneous and homogeneous mixed quartz-clay fault gouge layers (NERC Grant NE/P002943/1)

The data are from a suite of friction experiments performed on simulated fault gouges comprised of clay-quartz mixtures, sheared in a direct-shear arrangement. Some experiments were performed on...

Elemental and isotopic data for timed exchange experiments between clay, mineral water and seawater

This dataset presents both isotopic and elemental data for a series of cation exchange experiments between mineral water, montmorillonite clay and seawater. These were a series of in-house...

Collection of x-ray diffraction films and x-ray diffractograms from the clay fractions extracted from the sedimentary strata of the British Isles.

The C V Jeans collection of x-ray diffraction films and x-ray diffractograms form the basis of my investigations into the clay minerals stratigraphy of the Cretaceous, Jurassis, Permo-Triassic and...
