Description:
The Soliditech technology demonstration was conducted at the Imperial Oil Company/Champion Chemicals Superfund Site in Monmouth County, New Jersey. ontamination at this site includes PCBs, lead (with various other metals) and oil and grease. his process mixes the waste material with proprietary additives, pozzolanic materials, and water, in a batch mixer. echnical criteria used to evaluate its effectiveness include (1) short-term extraction and engineering tests; (2) long-term extraction and leaching tests; (3) petrographic examination; and (4) structural integrity observations. Three different waste types-contaminated soil, waste filter cake materia and oily sludge-and a sand blank were treated. ourteen cubic yards of treated waste monoliths and nearly 300 cast cylindrical mold samples were produces. Neither PCBs not volatile organic compounds were detected in the TCLP extracts of treated wastes. ignificantly reduced amounts of metals were detected in the TCLP, EP, BET and ANS 16.1 extracts of treated wastes compared to untreated. ow concentration of phenols and cresols were detected in post-treatment TCLP extracts. he pH of treated waste was near 12. nconfined compressive strength of treated wastes was high; permeability was very low. eight loss after wet/dry and freeze/thaw cycles was very low.
