Petroleum Contaminated Soil Treatment Technologies
The first steps in determining the appropriate remediation technology are to establish the quantity of impacted soil, determine the characteristics of the soil, identify the type of contamination and the level (concentration) of the contaminants, and explore each project’s unique characteristics. Equally important criteria for evaluation are regulatory approval and economics.
