English

Subject field(s)
  • Dredging
  • Environment
CONT

In cohesive sediment, however, mechanical dredges do better, since hydraulic dredges require that the material be broken up before it is suctioned and this generates larger spoil clouds.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Dragage
  • Environnement
CONT

Par contre, les dragues mécaniques auront un rendement supérieur dans les sédiments cohésifs, étant donné qu'avec les dragues hydrauliques, il faut procéder à la désagrégation des matériaux avant d'aspirer, ce qui provoque la formation de nuages de turbidité plus importants.
