Abstract
- Qualities of marine sediments along Colombia's Caribbean Coast were mainly investigated,
including ex-situ pollutants treatment technologies. This research aims to establish preliminary
frameworks to improve environmental assessment for beneficial uses of dredged materials (DM),
including contaminated marine sediments (CMS) in Colombia, where such studies have not been
reported until now. This research proposed using solidification-stabilization as sustainable remediation
technologies along with complex methods. Low values of harmful heavy metals and organic pollutants
were found in the literature reviewed. However, cadmium (Cd) and chromium (Cr) concentrations were
above the international environmental standards. For those reasons, remediation strategies should be
considered to control pollutants. Finally, future research should focus on the potential benefits of
combining multiple technologies to improve outcomes. More detailed studies should be continuously
conducted in Colombia to formulate marine sediments' environmental standards and enhance dredged
materials sustainability.
