In this text the author provides practical information on the actual design of systems for remediation of hazardous waste. It covers a wide range of forms of hazardous waste remediation and draws upon the experience of the remediation engineering programme of an environmental consulting company, Geraghty & Miller. Rules of thumb for dealing with emerging remediation technologies are offered as well as lists of regulatory requirements within Europe and the Pacific Rim.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In many cases, the application of in situ technologies evolved as a necessity from a cost perspective. However, the basic understanding of the mechanisms and theory behind these technologies was treated as a "black box." Although we have seen some tremendous successes in the application of remediation technologies over the past several years, we have also seen many cases in which a technology has been incorrectly or inappropriately applied. In most cases, this misapplication has been the result of a poor understanding of the basic concepts and mechanisms behind the technologies. Without proper understanding, the potential for misapplication of technologies remains a serious economic and technical threat.
