Abstract | The current state-of-the-art of solidification/stabilization (S/S) technologies is reviewed. This includes the legal impetus and basis for use of solidification/stabilization of hazardous wastes or contaminated soils, the principles and chemistry of contaminant immobilization within the waste form matrix, leaching mechanisms, and environmental factors affecting leachability. It is shown that S/S processes can be very effective at immobilizing certain waste materials, but other wastes may not be amenable to these processes. |
