Abstract
This chapter discusses technology options for the treatment of wastes and waste streams. Every phase of the Corrective Action process, some information about treatment technologies is needed. Many documents exist which describe candidate technologies in detail and give their respective applicability and limitations. Chemical treatment is defined as a class of processes in which specific chemicals are added to wastes or to contaminated media in order to achieve detoxification. The reaction involves the chemical transformation of a material, whether carried out on a lab-scale or an industrial-scale. A process, on the other hand, is a series of actions or operations needed to make such a reaction occur in a controlled manner. Thus, the development of a process requires the design of the equipment, the process controls, and the ancillaries necessary to make the reaction proceed in a full-scale facility.
