"This report represents one of a five-part response to the cooperative agreement "Land Treatment Technology Development Systems for Hazardous Wastes." This part provides technical literature annotations of land treatment processes for chemical, hazardous, and industrial solid wastes. Since the concept of land treatment is relatively new for industrial waste. information is widely scattered. Approximately 832 publications, through the year of 1982, were reviewed and annotated for this report. The other activities of this study were (1) prepare a master research plan for land treatment of hazardous waste, (2) conduct a feasibility study for selecting a pilot plant facility for land treatment, (3) develop the mechanism for a quick data base accessibility, and (4) provide for the peer review of proposals, programs, projects, and publications on land treatment. A sixth activity - the development of a Land Treatment Technology Panel was added by amendment. The remaining activities are documented by internal ORO reports since they supply data needs specific to the internal planning and management processes of the Hazardous Waste Land Treatment (HWLT) program. Any portions of interest to designers, managers, or operators of HWLT systems are being incorporated in more comprehensive publications, such as the forthcoming site selection manual." |
