Field experiment were carried out to investigate the formation of ground water flow and remediation of muddy tidal flat by installation of porous pile at the tidal flat of brackish river located in Hiroshima City,Japan.After the installation of porous pile,the concentrations of Dissolved Oxygen (DO) in the interstitial water in the porous pile increased with maximum concentration of 4 mg/L due to a formation of groundwater flow.It was observed that a increase in Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP) and a decrease in Ignition Loss (IL) in the porous pile site and these must be caused by the increase of dissolved oxygen in the interstitial water.From these results obtained above,it is concluded that the porous pile is an effective technology for remediation of muddy tidal flats.
