Introduction
Ex Situ (Above Ground) Treatment Technologies for Soil
- Physical Approaches
-Excavation and off-site disposal: Applicable primarily to unsaturated soils. Requires vertical and lateral access to the contaminated material so that excavation is possible. While often required by regulators where gross contamination has been detected, excavating and treating large amounts of soil is expensive.
