This paper will discuss a methodology that has been applied in over 1400 locations Methods, Procedures, Process: Methods used in the past have been difficult and expensive, often causing issues with the disposal of contaminated soil. Attempts have been made...

... Abstract Objectives/Scope The objective of the manuscript is to inform the audience of a recently-designed, all-natural and costsaving technology that utilizes an engineered process for the on-site treatment of hydrocarbon-contaminated wastes from pipeline or storage tank leaks and spills...

...Statement of Theory and Definitions Certain laboratory tests and calculations are employed when solving salinity and/or sodicity problems to determine the level of contamination and amount of calcium amendment required to repair the damage to the clay caused by the excess sodium ion [1...

... not completely eliminate the problem of contaminated water production but reduces it to, perhaps, some manageable level. The growing emphasis on environmental-friendly oil production operation and increasing cost of water handling requires the production of oil-free disposable water in a simple completion design...

... Abstract Enhanced Recovery, Inc. (ERI) developed and field-tested an innovative process that removes hydrocarbon contamination from the near surface formations and groundwater using microwaves. This in-situ technology is effective in increasing recovery for light, non-aqueous phase liquids...

... Abstract Cognis, part of the Henkel group, has developed a liquid product with lipophilic characteristics that can be applied to a number of environmental clean-up problems: oil contaminated soils, contaminated coast lines and off-shore drilling sites; and, in the event of large-scaled...

By evaluating the spatial nature of contaminant releases with respect to the spatial context of the ecosystem under consideration, more realistic ERAs with respect to the actual impact to ecological receptors at the population, community or ecosystem scale...

... Abstract In the past, amine-based waste materials (i.e., reclaimer sludges and filters) generated by the natural gas sweetening process were occasionally disposed of into unlined pits. Such disposal of these waste materials often resulted in contamination of the subsurface soils. Contaminants...
