Chemical Stabilization of Mixed Organic and Metal Compounds. EPA SITE ProgramDemonstration of the Silicate Technology Corporation Process

摘要

In November 1990, the Silicate Technology Corporation's (STC) proprietary processfor treating soil contaminated with toxic semivolatile organic and inorganic contaminants was evaluated in a Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation (SITE) field demonstration at the Selma Pressure Treatment (SPT) wood preserving site in Selma, California. The SPT site was contaminated principally with pentachlorophenol (PCP) and arsenic, as well as lesser amounts of chromium and copper. Because of their importance when selecting a remedy for the site, PCP and arsenic were identified as critical analytes to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment.
