Track 700 — Environment
Sustainability of Contaminated Site Remediation
Overview
A presentation of basic skills for assessing the sustainability of contaminated site remediation processes, in order to achieve an acceptable level of risk for people and the environment, comparing different remediation technologies (or scenarios) to identify the ideal solution — not only in terms of the lowest overall environmental impact, but also at reasonable cost (the economic side) and while creating value for society (the social side).
