At hundreds of thousands of commercial, industrial, and military sites across the country, subsurface materials including groundwater are contaminated with chemical waste. The last decade has seen growing interest in using aggressive source remediation technologies to remove contaminants from the subsurface, but there is limited understanding of (1) the effectiveness of these technologies and (2) the overall effect of mass removal on groundwater quality. This report reviews the suite of technologies available for source remediation and their ability to reach a variety of cleanup goals, from meeting regulatory standards for groundwater to reducing costs. The report proposes elements of a protocol for accomplishing source remediation that should enable project managers to decide whether and how to pursue source remediation at their sites.

As industry develops globally, environmental pollution grows to be an increasingly serious problem with each passing year. While there are many things that individuals on every level of power can do to mitigate the harm done to the environment, environmental remediation is a step to take to save our soil and water resources. As this problem is ongoing, it is essential to be knowledgeable in the emerging techniques made within the field of environmental remediation. The Research Anthology on Emerging Techniques in Environmental Remediation is a comprehensive resource on the emerging techniques and developments made within the field of environmental remediation. With global contributing authors, this book explores environmental remediation within diverse settings and international standards. Covering topics such as pollution and contamination, nanotechnology, and agriculture, this book is an essential reference for scientists, chemists, environmentalists, government officials, professors, students, researchers, conservationists, and academicians.
