Use of Soil Amendments for Remediation, Revitalization and Reuse

摘要

Hundreds of thousands of acres of disturbed and contaminated land scar this country's landscape. Some of these lands are in remote locations making cleanup very difficult. Others have minimal funds for cleanup or are so large that cleanup becomes economically impractical. There is a need for cost-effective, low energy technologies that can be applied at these sites. This paper provides information on the use of soil amendments, a cost effective in situ process for remediation, revitalization, and reuse of many types of disturbed and contaminated landscapes.
