Sustainable Remediation of Contaminated Sites Paperback
by Reddy
Paperback
Description
This book presents a holistic approach to remediation that considers ancillary environmental impacts and aims to optimize net effects to the environment.
It addresses a broad range of environmental, social, and economic impacts during all remediation phases, and achieves remedial goals through more efficient, sustainable strategies that conserve resources and protect air, water, and soil quality through reduced emissions and other waste burdens.
Inside, the authors simultaneously encourage the reuse of remediated land and enhanced long-term financial returns for investments.
Though the potential benefits are enormous, many environmental professionals and project stakeholders do not utilize green and sustainable technologies because they are unaware of methods for selection and implementation.
This book describes the decision framework, presents qualitative and quantitative assessment tools, including multi-disciplinary metrics, to assess sustainability, and reviews potential new technologies.
