IJsseloog

IJsseloog is an artificial island used as a depository to store polluted silt in the middle of the IJssel River in Flevoland, Netherlands. Silt is granular material, smaller than sand but larger than clay, and may occur as soil or as sediment mixed in suspension with water. IJsseloog can hold 20 million cubic metres (706 million cubic feet) of silt, which is roughly 8,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools worth.
