Summarizes the strengths & limitations of innovative, as well as conventional technologies for the remediation of soils, sediments, sludges; groundwater; & air emissions/off-gases. Extensive bibliography.

This Reference Guide provides additional information to increase the usability of the Remediation Technologies Screening Matrix. Together, the Reference Guide and Matrix can help site remediation project managers narrow the field of remediation alternatives and identify potentially applicable technologies for more detailed assessment and evaluation prior to remedy selection. In addition, the documents can be used to guide the selection of focused technology field demonstrations and specific technologies to highlight in subsequent technical data sheets, design manuals, and cost studies. The Reference Guide and Matrix are intended general references only. Additional information to support identification of potentially applicable technologies can be obtained by consulting published references, contacting technology experts, and conducting treatability studies. The Matrix and Reference Guide are not designed to be used as the sole basis for remedy selection.
