| This website has been set up as part of a UK EPSRC
funded research project 'Restoration
of acid tar and acid tar lagoons', to provide a focus
for research and information on acid
tar lagoons. There is a very little information on
acid tars in the public domain. This site aims to partially
redress that balance. Specifically it aims to:
a) encourage communication and information exchange between researchers and practitioners involved in the investigation and restoration of acid tar lagoons.
b) provide an up to date information resource including a comprehensive bibliography.
Please browse through the resources on the site. It will be
regularly updated and augmented as the project proceeds. We
are actively working with a number of UK acid tar lagoon sites,
but are keen to extend our knowledge base. We welcome contact
with anyone working on acid tars or acid tar lagoons.
The project is officially completed in December 2006 in University
of Manchester (socio-economic research) and in July 2007 in
University of Sheffield (scientific research). The major content
of scientific research is summarized in Acid Tars and Restoration
sections.
