Description:
This study reports on the results of work preparing 30,000 Ibs of SARM or synthetic analytical reference matrix, a surrogate Superfund soil containing a vide range of contaminants. It also reports the results ©f bench scale treatability experiments designed to simulate the EPA developed mobile soil washing system, where various SARM samples were physically washed to determine the efficiency of using chelating reagent, and surfactants to remove contaminants from the SARMs. This work supports the EPA's Superfund Best Demonstrated Available Technology (BDAT) program.
