Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A $19.3 million Department of Defense grant to Rice University funds the Advanced Applied Technology Demonstration Facility (AATDF). One of the project goals is the development of reduction strategies for nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) in the subsurface. Surfactants and Cosolvents for NAPL Remediation records the results of AATDF research.

The manual is a guide to the practical application of surfactants/cosolvent for in situ remediation. It is targeted to decision makers and anyone concerned with the design or implementation of these technologies.

The book discusses the situational viability of surfactants/cosolvents, the possible results, design, and operation. It includes case studies, step-by-step guidance, and project cost work sheets.

The successful results of the AATDF research, as documented Surfactants and Cosolvents for NAPL Remediation, are an invaluable contribution to the future of subsurface remediation. Without source NAPL reduction, the alternative is decades of plume management through pump-and-treat.

Synopsis:

This book gives you tools to provide assistance in the application of surfactant- and cosolvent-based flushing technologies to subsurface remediation. Written for the field practitioner, the book covers important aspects from design to operation of this unique remediation technique.
