Abstract: Chlorinated organic compounds such as trichloroethylene (TCE) are the most prevalent contaminants found in soil and ground water, and pose serious health risks even at trace concentrations. This research reports a new ...

Abstract: Decentralized systems are responsible for treating approximately 25% of the wastewater generated in the United States. The most common decentralized system involves onsite treatment using a septic tank unit followed by ...

Abstract: This paper describes laboratory studies conducted to evaluate the impact of varying environmental conditions (dense nonaqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) type and mass, and properties of the subsurface porous media) and design ...

Abstract: To enhance the understanding of the behavior and effects of the precipitation of

Abstract: Laboratory studies were conducted to determine the feasibility of injecting and mixing hydrogen peroxide (H

Abstract: The development of waste water‐induced soil clogging in subsurface wastewater infiltration systems is investigated in the field over a 70‐mo period. Domestic septic tank effluent (DSTE), graywater septic tank effluent ...

Abstract: In situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) using permanganate has been increasingly applied to deplete mass from dense nonaqueous-phase liquid (DNAPL) source zones. However, uncertainty in the performance of ISCO on DNAPL contaminants ...

Abstract: An evaluation was performed of the uncertainty in predicted carcinogenic risk resulting from uncertainty in site properties and fate and transport predictions for a simple contaminated soil site. SoilRisk, a risk model for ...

Abstract: Laboratory experiments were completed to compare the treatment efficiency of KMnO

Abstract: A methodology for evaluating the variability of risk resulting from the use of uniform, concentration‐based soil‐quality criteria is developed and applied to polychlorinated‐biphenyl‐(PCB‐) contaminated soil as an example. ...
