Abstract | The halogenated organics technical resource document (TRD) is one of a series of five TRDs that are being prepared by the Hazardous Waste Engineering Research Laboratory. It provides information that can be used by environmental regulatory agencies and others as a source of technical information describing alternatives to the land disposal of nonsolvent halogenated wastes. These alternatives include waste minimization/recovery., treatment, and disposal of waste streams. Although emphasis is placed on the presentation of performance data for proven technologies, information dealing with the applicability of other emerging technologies is presented as well. The treatment technologies discussed in the TRD include biological treatment as well as the following physical, chemical, and thermal treatment technologies: Physical treatment: (Distillation, Evaporation, Steam-stripping, Solvent extraction, Carbon adsorption); Chemical treatment: (Wet air oxidation, Supercritical water, UV/ozone oxidation, Chemical dechlorination, In situ vitrification); Thermal treatment: (Incineration, Molten glass, Molten salt, Pyrolysis). |

Contents Notes | This halogenated organics technical resource document (TRD) is one of a series of five TRDs that are being prepared by the Hazardous Waste Engineering Research Laboratory. it provides information that can be used by environmental regulatory agencies and others as a source of technical information describing alternatives to the land disposal of nonsolvent halogenated wastes. These alternatives include waste minimization/recovery, treatment, and disposal of waste streams. although emphasis is placed on the presentation of performance data for proven technologies, information dealing with the applicability of other emerging technologies is presented as well. Halogenated organic constituents of concern include all listed halogenated organics not classified as solvents, dioxins, or polychlorinated biphenyls. An estimated 24.2 million gallons of these nonsolvent halogenated wastes were generated in 1981. Of this total, about 3.2 million gallons were land disposal. |
