This book serves as a primary textbook for environmental site investigation and remediation of subsurface soil and groundwater. It introduces concepts and principles of field investigative techniques to adequately determine the extent of contamination in the subsurface for the selection of cleanup alternatives. It then focuses on practical calculations and skills needed to design and operate remediation systems that will both educate students and be useful for entry-level professionals in the field. Features: • Examines the practical aspects of investigating and cleaning up contaminated soil and groundwater • Contains scenarios, illustrations, equations, and example problems with discussions that illustrate various practical situations and interpret the results • Includes end-of-chapter problems to reinforce student learning • Provides a regulatory and risk analysis context, as well as public and community involvement aspects • Discusses sustainability and performance assessment of the remediation methods presented Site Assessment and Remediation for Environmental Engineers provides upper-level undergraduate and graduate students with practical, project-oriented knowledge of how to investigate and clean up a site contaminated with chemicals and hazardous waste.

The MTBE Remediation Handbook is a comprehensive and up-to date compendium of knowledge of the technology and risk management of MTBE contamination. This handbook examines the remediation of MTBE in existing spills: exploring the myths which act as impediments to successful clean-up techniques, and offering effective solutions. Experience in the last decade has shown that prompt source control is key to minimizing impacts and remediation costs. Successful treatment of contamination depends on the selection of the appropriate technology, well done site characterization, sound engineering design and implementation. The focus of this volume is the remediation of MTBE in existing spills. Section I of the MTBE Remediation Handbook features an in-depth look at the history, properties, occurrence and assessment of MTBE. Section II discusses applicable remediation technologies. Section III offers remediation case studies. The MTBE Remediation Handbook presents environmental scientists and cleanup professionals an indispensable resource on the handling of MTBE contamination worldwide.
