Gulliam, TM
This publication contains papers presented at the Second International Symposium on Stabilization/Solidification of Hazardous, Radioactive, and Mixed Wastes. The symposium was held 29 May to 1 June 1990. ASTM Committee D-34 on Waste Disposal, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, U. S. Environmental Protection Agency, the Hazardous Substance Management Research Center of the New Jersey Institute of Technology, Environment Canada, and Alberta Environmental Centre sponsored the symposium.
This STPn contains 39 papers out of the 70 that were presented at the symposium. The general topic headings used to organize papers for this publication are
- Regulatory and Technical Guidance
- Specialty Wastes Organics, Ashes, and Resins
- Laboratory-Scale Leachability Studies
- Laboratory-Scale Process Development
- Test Method Development
- Large-Scale Evaluation of Demonstration
Specific topics covered by the papers in this collection include:
- full size radioactive waste packages performance
- waste stabilization lessons learned
- lysimeter data
- site specific performance assessment plans
- dynamic compaction
- nuclear waste deposits
- metal contaminated soils
- case histories
- field demonstration
- uncontrolled hazardous waste sites
- in situ grouting
- quality control
- in line grout meter
- penetration testing
- explosive reactivity
- acid neutralization
- cement formulations
- radioactive waste encapsulation
- slaked lime
- cementation of borate waste
- conditioning
- solidification dried borate waste with polyester
- mixture design optimization
- heavy metal sludges
- short-term leaching behavior
- leaching characteristics
- performance testing
- grout-based waste forms
- guidelines for evaluating permanence
Purchase this STP if you are interested in issues associated with long-term containment, leachability and durability of solidified and stabilized wastes. Leachability refers to the release of contaminants from the waste form upon exposure to an aqueous media. Durability refers to the ability of the waste form to maintain its structural integrity upon exposure to expected environmental conditions.
