Abstract
The objective of this project is to evaluate the efficacy of in-situ treatment of large volumes of subsurface soils, and large, relatively quiescent waterbodies. To date, efforts have concentrated on soils-related activities to determine whether significant enhancements to the in-situ cleanup of chemically contaminated soils with standard water washing techniques could be obtained by using aqueous surfactants. The addition of the surfactant mixtures was designed to improve the solvent properties of the water and enhance the removal of adsorbed chemical contaminants.
