Presented at Battelle Sediments, January 29, 2025, Tampa, Florida. Background/Objectives Understanding contaminant flux to a nearshore sediment environment is important for source control and in-water sediment remedy design. In Portland Harbor, a chlorobenzene plume...
Presented at Battelle Sediments, January 28, 2025, Tampa, Florida. Background/Objectives: Rising costs and decreasing availability of disposal sites for contaminated dredged materials necessitate exploration of alternatives to disposal, such as using the dredged...
Presented at Battelle Sediments, January 30, 2025, Tampa, Florida. Background/Objectives The River Raisin, located in Michigan’s Monroe County, has a history of environmental degradation due to industrial activities, leading to its designation as an Area of...
Presented at Battelle Sediments Conference, January 28, Tampa, Florida. Background/Objectives Many inorganic materials for which cleanup levels are set to protect human health and the environment occur naturally in soil and sediments in varying concentrations. It is...
The OPTICS tool (U.S. Patent No. 11079368) integrates commercial, off-the-shelf, in situ optical, physical, and water quality sensors, discrete surface water samples, and a multiparameter statistical model to provide high-resolution characterization of surface water...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have vaulted to the forefront of interest for manufacturers, water utilities, regulators, litigators, and the wider public. With diverse applications, PFAS are in hundreds of products for residential, commercial, and...
