Abstract
The objective of the research was to develop a protocol to evaluate organic hazardous waste for mobility, adsorption, and degradation potential under simulated subsurface geologic reservoir temperatures and pressures. To achieve the objective three areas of work were addressed. The first area was an assessment of prior research conducted on deep-well organic waste disposal and areas where additional information on degradation, mobility, and ultimate fate is needed. The second area addressed the experimental conditions which are necessary to develop a laboratory protocol to determine the fate of deep-well disposed organic wastes. The third area was the development of the protocol itself. The laboratory protocol described in the report provides data needed to predict the fate of deep-well injected wastes. The knowledge is necessary to ensure that deep-well injected wastes do not contaminate ground waters.
