Rapid vacuum consolidation method for improving bottom sediment, airtight loading box, sand capping construction method, and sand capping installation box

The transformation of seabed sediments into organic sludge is a serious problem, both in improving the water environment of enclosed sea areas through sediment improvement and in river dredging as a flood control measure. Japan's organic sludge disposal sites are controlled facilities, and their remaining capacity is becoming critical. Constructing new disposal sites requires enormous project costs and construction time. [Solution] The solution of this invention involves forming a subsoil improvement layer on the seabed by consolidating the surface layer of the organic sludge using a rapid vacuum consolidation method, thereby increasing its density and strength, and stabilizing it on the seabed. Substances that cause water pollution in the subsoil are forcibly dissolved by consolidation wastewater to form an impermeable improved soil layer, which then seals in the organic sludge below. Meanwhile, the wastewater containing pollutants is properly treated. By forming an even more effective impermeable improved soil layer instead of permeable sand capping, a sustainable and healthy aquatic environment is restored without the need for sand capping materials or the generation of dredged soil.
