It provides a special focus on three classes of contaminants that have proven very difficult to treat once released to the subsurface: metals, radionuclides, and dense nonaqueous-phase liquids such as chlorinated solvents.\nGroundwater and Soil Cleanup was commissioned by the Department of Energy (DOE) as part of its program to clean up contamination in the nuclear weapons production complex. In addition to a review of remediation technologies, the book describes new trends in regulation of contaminated sites and assesses DOE's program for developing new subsurface cleanup technologies.", url = "https://nap.nationalacademies.org/catalog/9615/groundwater-and-soil-cleanup-improving-management-of-persistent-contaminants", year = 1999, publisher = "The National Academies Press", address = "Washington, DC" }
