The nine criteria are summarized below. Includes estimated capital, operation and maintenance cost, and net present worth cost. Remediation can be performed in-situ, reducing the need for excavation. Requires off-gas treatment systems to control airborne emissions. System can be specifically designed to handle emissions generated by he contaminants in the media being treated.
Technology can simultaneously treat a mixture of waste types.
Emissions controls may be needed to ensure compliance with air quality standards depending on local ARARs and test soil components. Scrubber water will likely require secondary treatment before discharge to POTW or surface water bodies. Disposal requires compliance with Clean Water Act regulations. Effectively destroys organic contamination and immobilizes inorganic material. Reduces the likelihood of contaminants leaching from treated soil.
