Environmental site investigation and characterization is potentially the most important part of an environmental project. Site investigation is so important because nearly all other aspects of the project, from financial decisions to engineering designs and construction tasks, are based on the findings of an initial site investigation. The goal in site investigation is to use a number of methods to understand the conditions present at a site and to choose a clear and detailed method to record and present the findings for later reference. Economic and political factors often play a large role in the depth and accuracy of environmental site investigations. This text takes readers step by step through the site investigation process. The knowledge needed for site investigation is presented on an introductory level so that students and practitioners can see the great importance that site investigation lends to the overall success of a project. Additionally, by gaining a thorough understanding of the current state of technology and methodology used for environmental site investigation, readers will better understand how to make their site investigations more efficient and beneficial to a project.

Environmental engineers are primarily responsible for restoring hazardous waste sites to a condition where they will not cause adverse effect to human health and the environment and for creating a waste-handling architecture that prevents future industrial wastes from causing any damage. This book presents a roadmap for hazardous waste management. Beginning with the legal framework that defines what a hazardous waste is and when a waste becomes hazardous, a practicing engineer needs to have a general idea of environmental audits, toxicology, site characterization, treatment processes, and site-monitoring protocol. In addition, the toxic compounds of concern may partition into the soil, groundwater, and air. Thus, any attempt to deal with such a situation requires integration of law, science, technology, and social policy. This book guides the reader with the help of numerous solved examples with a clear goal of showing how these topics are integrated in practice.

This second volume focuses on treatment technologies that are commonly applied at hazardous waste sites and site characterization.Environmental engineers are responsible for cradle-to-grave handling and management of a hazardous waste. To fulfil this responsibility, a practicing engineer needs to apply their knowledge of federal, state, and local regulations; environmental audits; toxicology; site characterization; and treatment processes to transform the hazardous waste site to a condition where it cannot cause adverse effect to human health and the environment. Volume I of this series covered the regulatory landscape, basic environmental chemistry principles, fate and transport of contaminants, toxicology, and risk assessment. This second volume focuses on treatment technologies that are commonly applied at hazardous waste sites and site characterization. It covers physicochemical processes (air stripping, adsorption, ion exchange, and reverse osmosis), incineration, stabilization and solidification, biological treatment, and land disposal. Numerous solved examples provide a step-by-step approach to apply these technologies in real-life situations. The two volumes combined present a clear roadmap to the reader to integrate these topics in practice.
