Abstract

During a site investigation and evaluation of a former hazardous waste facility in New York, groundwater underlying the site and leachate from the site were found to be highly contaminated by a wide variety of hazardous organic substances. To determine the treatability of the contaminated groundwater and leachate collected from the site, a preliminary study was conducted by the Department of Civil Engineering at the State University of New York at Buffalo (UB). Based on the findings of the preliminary analyses, a coupled biotreatment/activated carbon system was identified as the most promising on-site treatment alternative.
