Thevolume isacontinuationofathemeinitiatedin 1990. Itspredecessors,Emerg- ing Technologies in Hazardous Waste Management, ACS Symposium Series No. 422 (1990), EmergingTechnologiesinHazardous WasteManagementII,ACSSymposiumSe- ries No. 468 (1991), Emerging Technologies in Hazardous WasteManagement III, ACS SymposiumSeriesNo. 518(1993), EmergingTechnologiesinHazardous WasteManage- mentIV, ACSSymposium Series No. 554 (1994),Emerging Technologies in Hazardous WasteManagement V.
ACSSymposiumSeriesNo. 607(1995), andEmergingTechnolo- gies in Hazardous Waste Management VI, American AcademyofEnvironmental Engi- neersPublication (1996), arerelatedcontributionsonhazardouswastemanagement,but eachvolumeisessentiallydifferent. Byinspection,thereadermayquicklyrecognizethis diversity,andalsoconcludethatnosinglevolumecandojusticetothebreadthanddepth oftechnologiesbeingdevelopedandappliedinpractice.
Thecontributionspresented in thisvolumearedivided intofourseparatebutcom- plementary sections, including: (1) Chemical and Thermal Treatment; (2) Biochemical Treatment;(3)SeparationTechnologies;and(4)RadioactiveWasteTreatment.

ACS Corporate Associates was a majorfinancial cosponsor; theAmericanInstituteofChemicalEngineers(AIChE)EnvironmentalSciencesDivision, theAIChECenterforWasteReductionTechnologies,theAmericanAcademyofEnviron- mental Engineers,andtheJointAssociationfor theAdvancementsofSupercriticalFluid Technologywerenominalcosponsors;andEnviroExpocositedanexhibition.
Thisgener- osity was essential to the overall successofthe symposium and is gratefully acknow- ledged. vii CONTENTS I. EmergingTechnologiesinHazardousWasteManagementVII:AnOverview...FrederickG.
