Johns II and Evan K. Nyer. "The most exciting technical area in the remediation field today is "in place" or in situ technologies. This book, in the popular Geraghty & Miller series, provides a single reference source on the various available in situ technologies. Each of the primary areas is covered in a separate chapter, allowing for in-depth reviews, including laboratory and pilot plant studies, full-scale design, operation and maintenance, cost analysis, and case histories. Emerging technologies are summarized (including phytoremediation, temperature-enhanced extraction, reactive zones, and others). One of the unique features of this book is its excellent coverage of the geologic foundation and limitations of each of the technologies."--Jacket.
