The technology was used in remedial operations at the following sites (see Case Study overview) ... 

The cost for using the technology at several sites is summarized below (see Case Study Overview) ... 

The vendor states that the technology has been installed at private industrial sites and military installations for the destruction of VOC off-gases from soil vapor extraction (SVE) systems, air strippers, and process tank vents. The technology is patented and commercially available. The results from demonstrations at three military installations are included in case study overview. The vendor states the following advantages of PDT technology ... 

Following approval by the Corps and the Duluth Seaway Port Authority to continue testing ECGO at the Erie Pier site, EPI and ecp converted the Erie Pier test from an in situ to an ex situ (heaped) condition in 2005. The context and basis for evaluating ECGO as a potential ex situ (heaped) sediment remediation technology in the Duluth, Minnesota, project is explained in the following European field case study overview. 

This chapter presents a regulatory overview of on-site remediation, remedial investigations (RI), feasibility studies (FS), remedial technologies, and a simulated case study. The discussion of remedial investigations and feasibility studies also includes the development and selection of remedial technologies. The case study outlines a remedial investigation and feasibility study, as well as the selection of remedial technologies. 

Case Study No. 3 Belle Glade, FL 20.7.3.1 Injection-Facility Overview... 

In the next section, we first give a brief overview of the QM (QM/MM) X-ray refinement methodology and implementation, which has been reported previously and then follow this with the case study. 

The book focuses on the biogeochemistry of trace elements in arid and semiarid zone soils and includes an introductory chapter on the nature and properties of arid zone soils. It presents an updated overview and a comprehensive coverage of the major aspects of trace elements and heavy metals that are of most concern in the world s arid and semi-arid soils. These include the content and distribution of trace elements in arid soils, their solution chemistry, their solid-phase chemistry, selective sequential dissolution techniques for trace elements in arid soils, the bioavailability of trace elements, and the pollution and remediation of contaminated arid soils. A comprehensive and focused case study on transfer fluxes of trace elements in Israeli arid and semi-arid soils is presented. The book concludes with a discussion of a quantitative global perspective on anthropogenic interferences in the natural trace elements distributions. The elements discussed in this book include Cd, Cu, Cr, Ni, Pb, Zn, Hg, As, Se, Co, B, Mo and others. This book is an excellent reference for students and professionals in the environmental, ecological, agricultural and geological sciences. 

This chapter gives an overview of GC/MS analytical procedures used for lipid determination, and a summary of the complex issue of lipid chromatographic data interpretation in paintings and archaeological objects. Some examples and case studies are also included.

The case studies revealed a lack of overview regarding precursors, their underlying organizational root causes (the latent conditions) and their possible effects on safety barriers. This lack of overview created the opportunity for safety risks in the operational process, despite the presence of many safety indicators and measures.
