In 2001a DIOC-projectwas started at Delft University of Technologyon the dispersion of fines during sand mining. In this project the behaviour and spreading of fines, which are released through the overflow of a dredging ship, is studied. Laboratory and field studies will be carried out to determine the behaviour and spreading of the fines. However, before any experiments are carried out, a literature study is done to determine the main focus of the subsequent research. This literature study is presented herein. It discusses the whole cycle of dredging, the release of sediment in the water, behaviour of sediment in the water column, sedimentation, erosion and impact on ecology. In the end it is decided that the subsequent research shal1focu...
