Remediation of former manufactured gas plants andother coal-tar sites

Over the long history of former manufactured gas plants (FMGPs) and other coal-tar-producing sites, there were an enormous variety of fuel stocks used as well as many processing and disposal methods, each leading to unique waste and site circumstances. This book supplies the historical information needed to understand and accurately predict the transport and fate of contaminants at these sites. Understanding the processes and history of a particular site is absolutely critical to performing site and waste characterization and ultimately tosuccessful remediation. The second part of the text covers characterization, selection of remedy, remedial design and construction, and regulatory and legal process.
