U. S. EPA’S APPROACH FOR CHLORINATED SOLVENTS
Citation:
WILSON, J. T. U. S. EPA’S APPROACH FOR CHLORINATED SOLVENTS. Presented at Workshop for EPA of Taiwan on Natural Attenuation as Remediation for Contaminated Sites, Taipei, TAIWAN, October 26 - 27, 2006.
Impact/Purpose:
To inform the public.
Description:
The approach for chlorinated solvents is similar to the approach for petroleum hydrocarbons. However, there are more mechanisms of removal, including reductive dechlorination (biotic or abiotic), dehydrochloroelimination (abiotic), and hydrolysis (biotic or abiotic). As a result, there is more emphasis on the kinetics of removal, and less on biogeochemical parameters.
