Description
Summary:<p>Natural process is a physical, chemical and biological process existing in or produced by nature without the intent of human beings. Therefore, products and technology learnt from natural processes are available with low-cost and safe. Not only civil and geological engineers but also engineering chemists and biologists are interested in natural processes for sustainable engineering technology. Especially, chemical processes at extreme environments such as strong acid and alkaline conditions have been attracted their attention for sustainable management of acid mine drainage, waste disposal used huge amount of concrete, recycling of alkaline materials such as cement, slag and fly ash, and so on. Natural processes at strong acid and alkaline were available to observe at weathering of sulfide metal minerals and low temperature present-day serpentinization. Therefore, there are many contents to make lessons and be learnt from the natural processes. In this context, the previous studies on natural attenuation of acid mine drainage and low temperature present-day serpentinization will be reviewed from the engineering points of view in this paper with introduction of our studies.</p>
