Description:
This report summarizes the results of Phase I of a program to identify and assess international technologies that could be utilized for hazardous waste site remediation within the United States. Data was obtained through a comprehensive literature survey and through telephone contacts/interviews with agencies, industries, vendors, research groups, and others involved in the development and marketing of technologies. Emphasis was placed on technologies that have been developed and/or applied in Europe, Japan, and Canada. The factors considered in assessing the applicability of each technology were: function, operating descriptions, performance, limitations, economics, and current status. All remedial technologies identified as a result of the Phase I activities are described in this report.
