Description
This book presents a new way of viewing contaminated soil-as a resource that in many instances can be recovered. The Reuse and Recycling of Contaminated Soils addresses the waste problem associated with contaminated soil and considers alternatives that are environmentally sound, cost-effective, and time efficient. It provides thorough coverage of practical issues associated with reuse and recycling.
Reviews / Votes
"...The book is well written and uses case studies to illustrate treatment technologies and reuse possibilities. As someone who teaches in the general area of soil contamination and remediation, I find this text to be an excellent resource and would not hesitate to use it..."-Journal of Environmental Quality
