Abstract:

The objective of this project was to demonstrate and validate the placement, stability, and performance of reactive amendments for treatment of contaminated sediments in active Department of Defense DoD harbor settings. This project extended current pilot-scale testing of the application of activated carbon AC to decrease the bioavailability of polychlorinated biphenyls PCBs in contaminated sediment to near full-scale demonstration under realistic conditions at an active DoD harbor site.
