Foreword
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is charged by Congress with protecting the
nation's land, air, and water resources. Under a mandate of national environmental laws, the EPA
strives to formulate and implement actions leading to a compatible balance between human activities
and the ability of natural systems to support and nurture life. To meet these mandates, EPA's research
program, through its National Risk Management Research Laboratory (NRMRL) and National Exposure
Research Laboratory (NERL), provides data and technical support for solving environmental problems,
and is building a science knowledge base necessary to wisely manage our ecological resources,
understand how pollutants affect our health, and prevent or reduce future environmental risks.
NRMRL is the EPA's center for investigating technological and management approaches for
reducing risks from threats to human health and the environment. NRMRL's research program focuses
on methods for preventing and controlling pollution to air, land, water, and subsurface resources;
protecting water quality in public water systems; remediating contaminated sites and groundwater; and
preventing and controlling indoor air pollution. The goal of this research effort is to catalyze
development and implementation of innovative, cost-effective environmental technologies; develop
scientific and engineering information needed by EPA to support regulatory and policy decisions; and
provide technical support and information transfer to ensure effective implementation of environmental
regulations and strategies.
NERL is EPA's center for investigating technical and management approaches for identifying
and quantifying risks to human health and the environment. Goals of NERL's research program are to
(1) develop and evaluate methods and technologies for characterizing and monitoring air, soil, and
water; (2) support regulatory and policy decisions; and (3) provide the science support needed to ensure
effective implementation of environmental regulations and strategies.

Executive Summary
The Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation (SITE) Program has successfully promoted
the development, commercialization and implementation of innovative hazardous waste treatment
technologies for more than 13 years. SITE offers a mechanism for conducting joint technology
demonstration and evaluation projects at hazardous waste sites involving the private sector, EPA, and
other federal and state agencies. The program provides environmental decision-makers with relevant
data on new, viable remediation technologies that may have performance or cost advantages compared
to conventional treatment technologies. Since the initiation of the SITE Program in 1986, cleanup of
contaminated sites through the use of innovative technologies has resulted in a total inflated cost savings
of over 1.9 billion dollars.
During fiscal year (FY) 96, the SITE Program reviewed its approach to doing business and
determined that operational shifts in the program were necessary to identify and assist in the
development of the most sought-after technology types and treatment methods. Building on the
strengths of the existing program, such as demonstration design, quality assurance, and technology
transfer, the SITE Program shifted from a technology-driven focus to a remediation problem focus,
driven by the needs of the hazardous waste remediation community. The SITE Program has the
following four operating functions: (1) program planning, (2) matching priority sites with innovative
cleanup solutions, (3) technology field demonstrations, and (4) information dissemination. The SITE
Program's vision of the program is to remain the premiere organization in enhancing the credibility and
implementation of effective innovative remediation options.
The SITE Program continues to earn increased recognition as a leader in advancing innovative
technology development and commercialization. The program is participating with 122 technology
vendors. Through FY 98, the SITE Program has successfully demonstrated 101 technologies, six of
which were completed during FY 98. Emphasis formerly placed on technologies requiring the removal
of soil or groundwater (ex situ) is gravitating to in situ technologies that treat contamination in place.
The SITE Program recognized this change and has emphasized the development of in situ technologies.
Of the 24 ongoing or planned demonstrations, 16 are in situ, while only eight are ex situ. SITE'S
Monitoring and Measurement Technologies (MMT) Program has completed 36 projects to date, with
2 more in the planning stages.
To ensure that the program continues to meet the needs of the remediation community, the SITE
Program established a remediation stakeholder group. This group, which is composed of such agencies
as the Department of Defense and the Department of Energy, reviews innovative technology
applications and develops an environmental emphasis area list, which ensures that the most pressing
issues are prioritized and addressed. For instance, from discussions with various governmental and
private groups, SITE'S Monitoring and Measurement Technologies (MMT) Program identified a need
for more effective methods to evaluate soil contamination. In response to this need, the MMT Program
conducted demonstrations of four soil sampling technologies and two soil gas sampling technologies
in FY 97. The MMT Program is now addressing a similarly difficult problem in evaluating the
VI
-------
performance of sediment sampling technologies in FY 99. Through such relationships with other
interested parties, the SITE Program continually pursues opportunities to conduct cooperative
technology demonstrations, thereby reducing expenditures and further promoting innovative
technologies. These factors assist the SITE Program in attaining its primary goal - the expedited
cleanup of the nation's most contaminated sites.

SUPERFUND INNOVATIVE
TECHNOLOGY EVALUATION
SITE Program Description
Introduction
The Environmental Protection Agency's
(EPA) Superfund Innovative Technology
Evaluation (SITE) Program has successfully
promoted the development, commercialization,
and implementation of innovative hazardous
waste site remediation and characterization
technologies for more than 10 years. The SITE
Program is composed of a Demonstration
Program, a Monitoring and Measurement
Technology (MMT) Program, an Emerging
Technology Program (ETP), and information
transfer. SITE offers a mechanism for
conducting joint technology demonstration and
evaluation projects at hazardous waste sites
through the involvement of the private sector,
EPA, and other federal and state agencies.
Commercialization of innovative technologies is
assisted by providing potential users with high
quality, unbiased performance and cost data.
SITE also promotes commercial application of
innovative technologies through an extensive
technology transfer program.
Program Principles
To reduce expenditures and to remain at
the forefront of innovative technology
development, the SITE Program reviewed its
approach to doing business in fiscal year (FY)
1996. The review indicated that operational
shifts in the program were necessary to identify
and assist in the development of the most sought-
after technology types and treatment methods.
Building on the strengths of the existing program,
such as demonstration design, quality assurance,
and technology transfer, the SITE Program
shifted in FY 97 from a technology-driven focus
to a remediation problem focus, driven by the
needs of the hazardous waste remediation
community. EPA's vision of the SITE Program
is to remain the premiere organization in
enhancing the credibility and implementation of
effective innovative remediation options.
In FY 98, the program continued to focus
on cost-effective solutions to remediation
problems. The success of the program's focus is
illustrated in the strong response to solicitations
for technologies, and the great interest in resource
leveraging with the SITE Program from federal
and state agencies, such as the Department of
Defense (DOD), Department of Energy (DOE),
and State Environmental Protection Agencies.
The SITE Program is defined by the
following four operating principles: (1) program
planning, (2) matching priority sites with
innovative cleanup solutions, (3) technology field
demonstrations, and (4) information
dissemination.
Program Planning
To ensure that the SITE Program
continues to focus on validating the most sought-
after remediation technologies, overall program
direction and strategies are now evaluated each
year based on input from the user community and
other private- and public-sector stakeholders. As
part of the overall program planning process, the
SITE Program is developing and will implement
a quality management plan based on American
National Standard Institute, Specifications and
Guidelines for Quality Assistance for
Environmental Data Collection and
Environmental Technology Programs
(ANSI/ASQC E4).
Matching Priority Sites with Innovative Cleanup
-------
Solutions
The SITE Program formerly identified
innovative technologies, and then searched for an
appropriate demonstration site. The SITE
Program now solicits and prioritizes sites, and
then seeks appropriate technologies for
demonstration at these sites. Matching a site with
a technology is a flexible process, and a site
owner has the option of evaluating one or more
technologies. If no specific technology or vendor
is identified by a chosen site, technologies and
vendors are matched to sites by the SITE
Program and other interested parties, which may
include state and federal regulators and other
public representatives.
An important aspect of technology
selection is that more than one technology may
be introduced for review and demonstration. This
aspect allows for matching the most appropriate
and feasible technology to a particular site.
General technology needs of the user community
are identified by soliciting input from working
groups, forums, personal communication, and
hazardous waste publications. With this
continuous input, the SITE Program will continue
to focus on the needs of the remediation
community and the more pressing problems at
contaminated sites.
Technology Field Demonstrations
Field demonstrations are conducted to
provide quality data to evaluate technology
performance. The resulting data and reports are
intended for use by the site owners and state and
federal decision-makers in evaluating
remediation options and for adding credibility to
technology vendors promoting their processes.
SITE Program technology demonstrations
are increasingly conducted in partnership with
other EPA offices, other federal agencies, states,
private industry, and universities. These
partnerships not only reduce the overall costs of
demonstrations to EPA, but accelerate
remediation of some of the most problematic sites
at federal and state facilities. One example of
these partnerships is a cooperative agreement
with the Ohio EPA at the Crooksville/Roseville
Pottery site. This site is contaminated with lead
from waste disposal practices associated with
pottery production operations. Concurrent SITE
demonstrations were performed at the site to
assess the ability of two technologies to reduce
bioavailable lead, and therefore the associated
health risks at the site.
Information Dissemination
As part of its improvement process, the
SITE Program recognized the need for expediting
the progression of demonstration data
from the program to the user community. The
expansion of its electronic information sources
was identified by the SITE Program as the most
effective means for accomplishing this task. As
a result, the amount of information on innovative
technologies available through electronic sources
is growing at a rapid pace, with the World Wide
Web as the primary conduit.
The development of technical documents
within the SITE Program is a dynamic process,
with a continual drive towards presenting data in
its most usable form. A primary product of this
effort is the summarization of information on a
variety of technologies or applications for a
specific area of interest. This information allows
the user community to compare the technical
capabilities of these technologies, expected cost
for the application, and the compliance of the
technology with regulatory guidelines.
Meetings and conferences continue to be
an important factor in the dissemination of
technical information generated by the SITE
Program and were utilized to their full potential
during FY 98. These forums offer face-to-face
discussion among the user community,
technology developers, and the SITE Program,
which serves to generate ideas for future
development and use of innovative technologies.
-------
Program Implementation
SITE is a partnership between the public
and private sectors, where the costs and
responsibilities are shared by EPA, hazardous
waste site owners, and technology developers.
EPA enters into cooperative-type arrangements
with site owners and technology developers,
under which innovative technologies are
demonstrated at selected hazardous waste sites.
EPA evaluates the new technologies based on the
demonstration results, and compiles and
publishes engineering, performance, and cost data
intended to aid in decisions regarding the use of
the technologies at similar hazardous waste sites.
The program generates credible and unbiased
technology cost and performance data needed by
remedial project managers, consultants, and other
environmental decision makers. EPA promotes
easy access to this information, allowing project
managers to make timely decisions in selecting
cleanup remedies.
Historically, one of the greatest factors
inhibiting the use of innovative cleanup
technologies has been the lack of adequate and
credible cost and performance data during
technology development at or near the
commercial scale. Understandably, many site
owners are unwilling to risk the use of innovative
technologies without assurance of the
technology's success. By addressing this need,
SITE has aided in the first-time field use of many
technologies, often resulting in wide acceptance
of a particular technology. Providing credible,
unbiased cost and performance data remains the
foundation of SITE.
Program Design
The SITE Program is comprised of the
following key elements:
SITE PROGRAM
/ Demonstration Program
Evaluates and verifies cost and
performance of promising innovative
technologies at selected hazardous waste
sites to provide reliable performance, cost,
and applicability information for site
cleanup decision-making
/ Monitoring and Measurement
Technology Program
Evaluates technologies that detect,
monitor, and measure hazardous and
toxic substances to provide more cost-
effective methods for producing real-time
data during site characterization and
remediation
/ Emerging Technology Program
Fosters the research and development of
innovative technologies for remediation of
hazardous waste sites
/ Information Transfer Activities
Disseminates technical information,
including engineering, performance, and
cost data, to assist in removing barriers
for use of innovative and alternative
technologies
Demonstration Program
In the Demonstration Program, innovative
cleanup technologies are field tested on
hazardous waste materials. SITE demonstrations
are conducted at hazardous waste sites, such as
those on the National Priorities List (NPL);
Brownfields at non-NPL sites; or under simulated
hazardous waste site conditions at developer or
federal test and evaluation facilities.
-------
Engineering, performance, and cost data are
gathered on innovative technologies for review
by potential users to evaluate their applicability to
similar waste sites or to compare their
effectiveness and costs to other alternatives. Data
collected during each field demonstration are
used to assess the performance of the technology,
the potential need for pre- or post-processing of
the waste, applicable types of wastes and
contaminated media (for example, soil, sludge,
water, sediment), potential operating problems,
limitations, and approximate capital, operating,
and maintenance costs.
The selection of sites for the program is
based on the research needs of EPA,
other federal agencies, and the
technology user community.
The SITE Program annually solicits
applications for participation in the
Demonstration Program from interested private
firms and federal and state agencies with
responsibility for cleanup operations at hazardous
waste sites. Cooperative arrangements or
Memoranda of Understanding form the
relationship between the SITE Program and the
parties responsible for the host site. No
contractual agreement is arranged and no funds
are given to the site as part of this arrangement.
SITE provides in-kind service in the form of
technical demonstration, testing, sampling/
analytical services, and report writing.
Host site owners (see Appendix B for
sites categorized by state and location) are
responsible for providing necessary data related
to the hydrogeology and other site conditions,
results of feasibility studies, and results of waste
analyses. The owner is responsible for all
logistical requirements for the demonstration,
such as availability of utilities, access to land area
at the site large enough for equipment setup,
elimination or restriction of geographical or
geological hindrances, security provisions, and
personnel safety provisions. Technology
developers whose systems are demonstrated are
responsible for transporting equipment to the
selected site, operating their systems, and
removing equipment from the site upon
completion of the demonstration. EPA is
financially and technically responsible for project
planning, sampling and analysis, quality
assurance and quality control, preparing
evaluation reports, and disseminating cost and
performance information to environmental
managers. EPA also prepares evaluation reports,
bulletins, project summaries, and videotapes to
document demonstration activities. These reports
and videotapes evaluate available information on
the technology and analyze its overall
applicability to other site characteristics, waste
types, and waste matrices. Reports also include
testing procedures and the quality assurance and
quality control standards.
As of September 30, 1998, the
Demonstration Program included 127 accepted,
ongoing, and completed demonstrations. These
technologies are presented alphabetically in
Appendix A, according to the state in which the
developer's business is located.
Monitoring and Measurement Technology
Program
The MMT Program provides developers
of innovative hazardous waste measurement and
monitoring technologies with an opportunity to
demonstrate a technology's performance under
actual field conditions. Following the
demonstration, EPA compiles the results and
prepares a report summarizing the findings.
Report distribution may enhance market
acceptance or define new applications for the
technology.
The purpose of the MMT Program is to
accelerate the acceptance and use of effective
innovative measurement and monitoring
technologies in the field. These technologies
include new or modified technologies that can
detect, monitor, and measure hazardous and toxic
substances in the subsurface, soil, sediment,
waste materials, and surface waters. Technologies
include chemical sensors for in situ (in place)
measurements, groundwater sampling devices,
soil and core sampling devices, soil gas or fluid
-------
samplers, laboratory and field-portable analytical
equipment, and other systems that support field
sampling or data acquisition and analysis.
MMT Program technologies can be used
to accurately assess the degree of contamination
at a site, provide data to evaluate potential effects
on human health and the environment, supply
data to assist in selecting the most appropriate
cleanup action, and monitor the effectiveness of
a remediation technology. The selection process
places high priority on technologies that provide
more cost-effective, faster, and safer methods
than conventional technologies for producing
real-time or near-real-time data. Innovative
technologies are demonstrated under field
conditions and results are compiled, evaluated,
published, and disseminated by the Office of
Research and Development (ORD). The primary
objectives of this portion of the SITE program
are to:
> Test field analytical technologies that
enhance monitoring and site character-
ization capabilities
> Identify the performance attributes of new
technologies to address field
characterization and monitoring problems
in a more cost-effective and efficient
manner
> Prepare protocols, guidelines, and
methods that enhance the acceptance of
these technologies for routine use
Evaluations or demonstrations have now
been completed for 36 technologies in the MMT
Program. The MMT Program is administered by
ORD'S National Exposure Research Laboratory
at the Environmental Sciences Division in Las
Vegas, Nevada. Technologies demonstrated
under the MMT Program are listed in Appendix
A.
Emerging Technology Program
The ETP fosters the research and
development of innovative technologies for
remediation of Superfund and other hazardous
waste sites. Technologies enter the program at
the bench- or pilot-scale stage of development.
EPA provides developers the opportunity to
advance a technology from bench- and pilot-scale
testing to demonstration.
The SITE ETP was discontinued in 1996
due to reductions in funding to the Superfund
research and development budget. The SITE
Program continues to honor commitments to
technology developers currently in the ETP but
no new technologies were admitted into the
program after 1995. Technologies were solicited
yearly for the ETP through requests for
proposals. Selected candidates were invited to
submit a Cooperative Agreement application that
underwent full technical review. Applications
were considered for a Cooperative Agreement
with a duration of up to 2 years, with funding of
$150,000 per year with a $300,000 maximum.
Second year funding depended on significant
progress during the first year. Upon completion
of the ETP, technologies were considered for the
SITE Demonstration Program. Many technology
vendors chose to fully commercialize their
technologies after participating in the ETP.
Information Transfer Activities
Information transfer activities ensure that
valuable information about innovative
technologies from the Demonstration and MMT
Programs is disseminated through various
communication mechanisms, such as technical
networking, publications, and electronic
distribution. The most important products are the
published technical reports for each field
demonstration. All such activities promote the
awareness and use of innovative technologies for
assessment and remediation at Superfund sites.
The primary goal of information transfer is to
promote communication among environmental
stakeholders requiring up-to-date technical
information.
Mechanisms for providing information on
technology demonstrations and the SITE Program
include the following:
> Program-specific brochures and exhibits
> Conferences, workshops, and technical
-------
working groups
> Publications and videotapes (see
Appendix C)
> Electronic media, including the Internet
and electronic bulletin boards
> Technical assistance to regions, states,
and remediation contractors
> Technology seminars
Printed and electronic documents are accessible
through the World Wide Web at the
Environmental Technologies Verification (ETV)
Web site (http://www.epa.gov/ORD/SITE) and a
site supported by the EPA Office of Solid Waste
and Emergency Response's Technology
Innovation Office (TIO) (http://clu-in.org).
Several technology databases summarize
information about innovative treatment
technologies and associated vendors. These
databases may serve as tools in identifying
potential technology demonstration candidates or
serve as directories for technology vendors.
Examples of these databases include, but are not
limited to, Remediation and Characterization
Innovative Technologies (REACHIT) online
system (http://epareachit.org), and the
Bioremediation in the Field Search System
(BFSS). Descriptions of the databases and
publication ordering information are provided in
Appendix D.
-------
SITE Program Accomplishments and Vendor Benefits
Promotion of Innovative Technologies
SITE is recognized as one of EPA's
principal programs to advance innovative site
monitoring, characterization, and cleanup
technologies, with the potential to treat hazardous
wastes more efficiently, less expensively, and
more safely than many existing methods. SITE'S
mission is to promote the development and
application of innovative technologies that reduce
or eliminate risks to human health and the
environment due to contamination. The goal of
the program is to interact with the technology user
community, understand its needs, integrate those
needs with EPA's research mission, and
expeditiously address those needs. Identifying and
responding to the technology needs of the
remediation community is the driving force behind
today's SITE Program.
SITE is a Recognized Leader in
Advancing Innovative Techology
Over the past 13 years, SITE has earned
increased recognition as a leader in advancing
innovative technology development and
commercialization and has participated
cooperatively with more than 122 technology
developers. Through FY 98, the SITE Program
has successfully demonstrated 101 technologies,
six of which were completed during FY 98. These
demonstrations have provided a tremendous
amount of information on the performance, costs,
and applicability of innovative cleanup
technologies, which greatly assists managers of
environmental remediation projects in developing
appropriate and effective cleanup solutions.
The types and numbers of innovative
technologies selected for remediation at
Superfund sites increased significantly after the
passage of the Superfund Amendments and
Reauthorization Act (SARA). While rarely used
during the early 1980s, innovative technologies
comprised approximately one-quarter of the total
number of technologies selected for Superfund
remediation projects between FY 86 and FY 87.
Since then, the number has continued to rise,
indicating increased credibility and confidence in
a number of innovative treatment technologies.
Figure 1 shows that more innovative versus
conventional technologies were selected in
Records of Decisions (RODsofficial records
documenting selection of Superfund site cleanup
methods) signed during FY 93 through FY 97.
Although SITE is only one contributing factor in
increasing innovative technology selection, the
program has played a significant role in this
activity.
Historical Program Cost Savings and Vendor
Contracting
Since its establishment in 1986, the SITE
Program has assisted in the development and use
of innovative technologies, resulting in substantial
cost savings for cleaning up contaminated sites.
The SITE Program has assisted vendors in
advancing innovative technologies from the
development phase to full-scale application, and
has promoted greater acceptance of these
technologies. The following subsections provide
examples of the financial success of the SITE
Program.

Data based on updated Superfund Records of Decision (ROD) data. A Site may use more than one technology.
Figure 1
Treatment technologies for source control chosen in RODS
(Adapted from: U.S. EPA, Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response, Innovative Treatment
Technologies Annual Status Report, Eighth Edition, EPA/542/r-96/010, November 1997, and U.S.
EPA, Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response, Innovative Treatment Technologies Annual
Status Report, Ninth Edition, S42-R-99-001, April 1999)
SITE Program Accomplishments
Figure 1 displays the number of innovative
and established treatment technologies selected in
RODs by year. This figure shows that interest in
innovative technologies as a sound remediation
action increased in the early 1990s. Since 1993,
the use of innovative technologies has outpaced
that of established technologies, resulting in
dramatic cost savings.
During 1996 and 1999, the SITE Program
collected information from signed RODs (dated
1993-1997) in all 10 EPA Regions that selected an
innovative technology as the remedy. These
technologies include thermal desorption,
bioremediation, and in situ soil flushing. The data
compiled by the SITE Program allowed
environmental managers to compare innovative
technologies to conventional technologies,
especially with respect to cost. This time period
was selected for evaluation because more
innovative technologies than conventional
technologies were selected in RODs signed in
each of these years. Documentation was obtained
from updated data on a total of 142 RODs that
selected innovative technologies for part or all of
the remediation. EPA guidance recommends that
ROD estimates assess remedial alternatives with
an accuracy of+50 percent to -30 percent. Of the
142 RODs that selected innovative technologies,
71 had sufficient information to make a cost
comparison between the selected technology and
a conventional technology. Cost savings realized
by using innovative technologies for the 71 RODs
was estimated at $2.1 billion in end of year 1998
dollars, with an average percent savings per site of
over 70 percent. Only 11 of the 71 RODs
reported that the innovative technology was more
expensive than or equal to the established
-------
technology.
To estimate SITE Program net benefits,
the FY 93-FY 97 RODs and the SITE Program
budget were inflated to the end of 1998 using
Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation figures. The
total inflated cost savings for RODs from 1993-
1997 was $2.1 billion, and the total inflated SITE
Program budget from 1986-1998 was $170
million. This comparison represents an estimated
inflated cost savings of over $1.9 billion for
various site cleanups.
Figure 2 shows a breakdown of savings by
technology type. Soil vapor extraction (SVE)
showed the highest savings of over $937 million,
followed by $479 million for bioremediation.
SVE was one of the initial technologies accepted
into the SITE Program (in the late 1980s), and
large savings would therefore be expected from
this technology. Solvent extraction, vitrification,
and thermal desorption each accounted for over
$100 million in savings.
Historical Vendor Benefits
Technology vendors are a central part of
the SITE Program, providing services for sites
requiring clean-up solutions. Vendors experience
various benefits by participating in the SITE
Program, namely increased market share and
recognition. Increased acceptance of innovative
technologies is demonstrated by the level of
commercial activity experienced by SITE Program
vendors. For example, 1998 vendor information
indicated that vendors completed SITE
demonstration projects reported a total of 1,582
commercial remediation contracts, and 1,161
treatability studies (Figure 3).
As part of a SITE Program evaluation in
1998, 46 vendors provided information regarding
company revenues. Following participation in the
SITE Program, 64 percent of vendors were
awarded commercial remediation jobs using
technologies demonstrated in the SITE Program.
Ten percent of the vendors were awarded more
than 10 contracts each. For 1998, 38 percent of
the SITE vendors reported one or more
international contracts, more than doubling the 17
percent from 1994 data. SITE vendors identified
33 countries where jobs were contracted (Figure
4). Figure 5 provides a historical perspective of
growth in the number of contracts awarded to

Figure 5. Number of remediation contracts awarded to SITE vendors after program
participation (Source: 1998 vendor information)
The 1998 vendor information has been
broken down by technology type to ascertain
which technologies demonstrated the greatest
commercial success. Figure 6 shows the share by
technology type of the 1,626 remediation
contracts awarded to vendors. It is clear from
this chart that soil vapor extraction and
bioremediation technologies have had the most
commercial success. This trend from the vendor
information is consistent with the RODs analysis
results which are shown in Figure 2.
Figure 7 displays the distribution of the
1,248 treatability studies that were awarded to
SITE vendors. This graph shows that
solidification/stabilization technologies (35%), and
soil vapor extraction (25%), have received the
largest number of studies. In contrast to the
remediation contracts, treatability studies were
more evenly distributed among technology types.
Information was obtained in 1998 from 16
vendors in the MMT Program. This information
clearly demonstrated the benefits
that vendors receive from the program, indicating
that 50 percent of the vendors sold
more than 25 units since their demonstration in
the SITE Program. Over 60 percent of the
vendors indicated that vendors'technologies were
used on international remediation projects. In
total, the MMT vendors reported selling over
2,400 units on over 900 jobs, including 48
international jobs.
Overall, vendor information shows that
SITE vendors in the Demonstration and MMT
Programs are receiving remediation or
characterization work for the demonstrated
technologies. There is also a clear connection
between the commercial success of particular
remediation technology types (that is, SVE and
bioremediation) as measured from vendor
information, and the cost savings determined from
the RODs analysis. An example of the application
of an innovative technology at a Superfund site
follows.
11
-------
Longhorn Army Ammunition Plant (LHAAP)
Burning Ground #3 Superfund Site
The LHAAP site was used for treatment,
storage, and disposal of combustible solvent
wastes with associated activities including open
burning, incineration, and evaporation. The
primary contaminants at the site were
trichloroethylene (TCE) and methylene chloride.
Initial site studies indicated that 50,000 cubic
yards (cy) of soil would need to be treated.
Thermal desorption (TD), a SITE Program
technology, and incineration were the
technologies most suited to remediation. Initial
cost analyses from the 1996 ROD estimated a unit
cost of $204 per cy for TD, and $524 per cy for
incineration. TD was chosen to remediatethe site
based on its cost effectiveness, and its ability to
meet required treatment goals.
As additional characterization databecame
available, the scope of the project was reduced,
and only 32,293 cy of contaminated soil was
treated. The TD unit operated from February
until December 1997, and achieved the treatment
objectives for concentration reductions of organic
compounds. Total project costs for the
remediation were $4,886,978, which works out to
$151 per cy. The unit treatment cost is a 26
percent savings over the initial TD cost estimated
in the ROD, and a 71 percent savings over the
estimated cost for incineration. These unit cost
savings are particularly remarkable in light of the
fact that a smaller volume of waste material was
treated at the site due to a change in scope.

Innovative Technology Highlights
SITE Program Case Studies
This section presents case studies of
innovative remediation technologies for vendors
that have participated in the SITE Program
through either the Demonstration Program (Case
Studies 1 through 4) or the MMT Program (Case
Study 5).
The case studies provide brief descriptions
on the use and status of various technologies and,
where available, general information on the cost of
applying each technology. These case studies
represent the SITE Program's approach to
promoting innovative technologies by identifying
user needs. In response to user needs, the
Demonstration Program assessed the performance
of an electrokinetic technology for DNAPL
contamination, a phytoremediation technology for
lead contamination, bioremediation of spent ore
wastes, and a barrier to isolate radioactive wastes
(Case Studies 1 - 4). The environmental
community is also in need of low-cost, accurate
methods for soil and soil gas sampling. The MMT
Program has addressed this issue by evaluating the
performance of six soil and soil gas samplers at
two sites with differing soil types (Case Study 5).
The technologies presented in these case
studies are typical of the SITE Program and
represent SITE's remediation problem focus,
driven by the needs of the hazardous waste
community. These technologies represent real or
potential solutions to actual cleanup problems
faced by the environmental community.
Case Study 1: Lasagna In Situ Soil
Remediation (Monsanto Company,
DOE, and EPA National Risk
Management Research Lab)
The Lasagna process combines
electrokinetics with treatment layers that are
installed directly into the contaminated soil to
form an integrated, in situ remedial process. The
process uses an outer layer of charged electrodes,
which create an in situ electric field to move
contaminants through the treatment layers. The
design of treatment layers depends on the type of
contamination present at the site. Past designs
have used granular activated carbon and iron filing
treatment layers to treat chlorinated solvents.
The Lasagna process can remove
contaminants from soil in the following ways:
> Creating treatment zones in close
proximity to one another, and converting
them into sorption/degradation zones by
adding sorbents, catalysts, microbes,
oxidants, and buffers.
> Using electrokinetics to transport
contaminants from the soil into the
treatment zones for sorption/degradation.
Waste Applicability
The process is designed to treat organic
and inorganic contaminants and mixed wastes in
groundwater and soil. A vertical treatment zone
is typically used for shallow contamination,
within 50 feet of the ground surface. A
horizontal configuration, using hydraulic
fracturing or related methods, is capable of
treating deeper contamination.
Status
The vertical configuration of the
Lasagna process was accepted into the SITE
Demonstration Program in 1995 as part of the
White House Rapid Commercialization Initiative.
Under the SITE Program, with additional funding
from the DOE, it was tested for 120 days in May
1995 on soil contaminated with TCE at DOE's
Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PGDP) in
14
-------
Kentucky. Sampling and analysis of pre- and
post-treatment soils indicated a 98 percent
removal of TCE from clayey soil, from initial
contamination levels around 100 parts per million
(ppm).
A second test of the vertical configuration
was initiated at PGDP to treat TCE-contaminated
soil to a depth of 45 feet below ground surface.
Complications encountered during the operation
included significantly higher than expected TCE
concentrations, and complex hydrogeology. The
overall TCE removal efficiency was in the range
of 95 percent for 1 pore volume of water flow to
over 99 percent for 2.6 pore volumes between the
treatment zones. Based on the success of this
test, DOE has recommended using the process to
clean up the rest of the site.
Case Study 2:
(Phytotech)
Phytoextraction
Phytotech uses specially selected and
engineered plants to treat soil and water
contaminated with toxic metals such as lead and
cadmium, as well as radionuclides. The
treatment of soils or sediments with this
technology is referred to as phytoextraction.
Phytoextraction offers an efficient,
cost-effective, and environmentally friendly way
to clean up heavy metal contamination. Plants
are grown in situ on contaminated soil and
harvested after toxic metals accumulate in the
plant tissues. The degree of accumulation varies
with several factors, but can be as high as 2
percent of the plants' aboveground dry weight,
leaving clean soil in place with metal
concentrations that are less than regulatory
cleanup levels. After accumulation in the plant
tissues, the contaminant metal must be disposed
of, but the amount of disposable biomass is a
small fraction of the amount of soil treated. For
example, excavating and landfilling a 10-acre site
contaminated with 400 parts per million (ppm)
lead to a depth of 1 foot requires handling
roughly 20,000 tons of lead-contaminated soil.
Phytoextraction of the same site would require
disposal of around 500 tons of biomass - about
1/40 of the soil cleaned. In the example cited,
six to eight crops would typically be needed, with
three or four crops per growing season.
Waste Applicability
Phytotech's phytoextraction technology
can be used to clean soil or sediments
contaminated with lead, cadmium, chromium,
cesium, strontium and uranium.
Phytoremediation of other metals such as arsenic,
zinc, copper, and thorium is in the research stage.
Status
Under the SITE Program, Phytotech has
demonstrated its technology at a former battery
manufacturing facility in Trenton, New Jersey.
Two crops were planted and harvested in late
summer 1998 to remediate lead contamination in
soil at the site.
Phytotech has conducted several field
demonstrations of its rhizofiltration technology
for the removal of (1) cesium/strontium at
Chernobyl, and (2) uranium from contaminated
groundwater at a DOE site in Ashtabula, Ohio.
At Chernobyl, sunflowers were shown to extract
95 percent of the radionuclides from a small pond
within 10 days. At the Ashtabula site, Phytotech
ran a 9-month pilot demonstration during which
incoming water containing as much as 450 parts
per billion (ppb) of uranium was treated to 5 ppb
or less of uranium.

Case Study 3: Spent Ore
Bioremediation (Pintail Systems,
Inc.)
This Pintail Systems technology uses
microbial detoxification of cyanide in heap leach
processes to reduce cyanide levels in spent ore
and process solutions. The biotreatment
populations of natural soil bacteria are grown to
elevated concentrations, and are then applied to
spent ore by drip or spray irrigation. Process
solutions are treated with bacteria concentrates in
continuous or batch applications. This method
may also enhance metal remineralization,
reducing acid mine drainage and enhancing
precious metal recovery to offset treatment costs.
Biotreatment of cyanide in spent ore and
ore processing solutions begins by identifying
bacteria that will grow in the waste source and
that use the cyanide for normal cell building
reactions. Native isolates are ideally adapted to
the spent ore environment, the available nutrient
pool, and potential toxic components of the heap
environment. The cyanide-detoxifying bacteria
are typically a small fraction of the overall
population of cyanide-tolerant species. For this
reason, native bacteria isolates are extracted from
the ore and tested for cyanide detoxification
potential as individual species. Any organisms
demonstrating detoxification potential in flask
cyanide decomposition tests are preserved and
submitted for bioaugmentation. Bioaugmentation
of the cyanide detoxification population
eliminates nonworking species of bacteria and
enhances the natural detoxification potential by
growth in waste infusions and chemically defined
media.
The working population of treatment
bacteria is grown in spent ore infusion broths and
process solutions to adapt to field operating
conditions. The cyanide in the spent ore serves as
the primary carbon or nitrogen source for bacteria
nutrition. Other required trace nutrients are
provided in the chemically defined broths. The
bacterial consortium is then tested on spent ore in
a 6-inch-by-10-foot column in the field or in the
laboratory. The column simulates leach pile
conditions, so that detoxification rates, process
completion, and effluent quality can be verified.
Following column tests, a field test may be
conducted to verify column results.
The spent ore is remediated by first
setting up a stage culturing system to establish
working populations of cyanide-degrading bacte-
ria at the mine site. Bacterial solutions are then
applied directly to the heap using the same
system originally designed to deliver cyanide
solutions to the heap leach pads. Cyanide
concentrations and teachable metals are then
measured in heap leach solutions. This method
of cyanide degradation in spent ore leach pads
degrades cyanide more quickly than methods
which treat only rinse solutions from the pad.
Waste Applicability
The spent ore bioremediation process can
be applied to treat cyanide contamination, spent
ore heaps, waste rock dumps, mine tailings, and
process water from gold and silver mining
operations.
Status
The technology was accepted into the
SITE Demonstration Program in 1994. A
demonstration was successfully conducted at
Battle Mountain, Nevada to test the effectiveness
of the bioremediation process to detoxify
cyanide wastes. In addition, PSI has completed
two full-scale cyanide detoxification projects.
Case Study 4: Cryogenic Barrier
(Arctic Foundations, Inc.)
Long-term containment and
immobilization of hazardous wastes using ground
freezing technology is a relatively new field, even
though ground freezing has been used as a
temporary construction aid for several years.
Ground freezing is ideally suited to control
waterborne pollutants, since changing water from
a liquid to a solid has an obvious immobilizing
16
-------
effect. The challenge for conventional ground
freezing technologies is to be technically and
economically viable in the long-term.
Arctic Foundations, Inc. (API), has
developed a ground freezing technology that can
be used as a long-term solution for containing
and immobilizing hazardous wastes. A frozen
barrier is created by reducing the ground
temperature around the waste to the appropriate
freezing temperature and subsequently freezing
the intervening waste. The ground freezing
process is naturally suited to controlling
hazardous waste because in-ground moisture is
transformed from serving as a potential waste
mobilizing agent to serving as a protective agent.
A typical containment system consists of
multiple thermoprobes, an active (powered)
condenser, an interconnecting piping system, a
two-phase working fluid, and a control system.
The thermoprobes (API's heat removal devices)
and piping are inserted into the soil at strategic
locations around and sometimes underneath the
waste source, depending on the presence or
absence of a confining layer. Two-phase
working fluid circulates through the piping and
reduces the temperature of the surrounding soil,
creating a frozen barrier around the waste source.
The thermoprobes may be installed in any
position and spacing to create a frozen barrier
wall of almost any shape and size.
Waste Applicability
The cryogenic barrier can provide
subsurface containment for a variety of sites and
wastes, including the following: underground
storage tanks; nuclear waste sites; plume control;
burial trenches, pits, and ponds; in situ waste
treatment areas; chemically contaminated sites;
and spent fuel storage ponds. The barrier is
adaptable to most geometries; drilling technology
presents the only constraint to applying the
technology at waste sites.
Status
The SITE demonstration of the freeze
barrier was conducted over a 5-month period in
1998 at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory
(ORNL) in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. The
demonstration was conducted to evaluate the
barrier's ability to contain radionuclides from the
ORNL Waste Area Homogeneous Reactor
Experiment pond.
The system's effectiveness was evaluated
through the performance of a groundwater dye
tracing investigation. Phase I of the
demonstration included a background study
conducted to determine the presence of natural
fluorescence and existing dyes in groundwater at
the site. The purpose of the background study
was to select a dye that was non-detectable in the
background, for use during the dye tracing
investigation. During Phase II, the dye was
injected into a standpipe located within the
confines of the frozen barrier. Water samples and
charcoal packets were then collected at
predetermined sampling points outside the barrier
wall to determine the presence or absence of dye
in groundwater, springs, or seeps. The freeze
barrier wall was effective in impeding
groundwater recharge into the containment area,
with the exception of a breach in the northwest
corner of the pond due to the presence of a
subsurface pipe that was left in place after the
pond closed.
Case Study 5: Subsurface Soil and
Soil Gas Samplers
The MMT Program conducted field tests
of four soil and two soil gas sampling
technologies in May and June 1997. The
sampling technologies were demonstrated at two
sites: the Small Business Administration (SBA)
site in Albert City, Iowa, and the Chemical Sales
Company (CSC) site in Denver, Colorado. These
sites were chosen because of the wide range of
volatile organic compounds (VOC)
concentrations detected at the sites and because
each has a distinct soil type. The SBA site is
composed primarily of clayey soil, and the CSC
site is composed primarily of medium- to fine-
grained sandy soil.
The purpose of the field tests was to
assess the performance of each technology as
17
-------
compared to a standard subsurface sampling
method (hollow-stem auger drilling and split-
spoon sampling for the soil samplers, and active
soil gas sampling for the gas samplers).
Four soil sampling technologies were
demonstrated at the two test sites: JMC
Environmentalist's Subsoil Probe; Simulprobeฎ
Core Barrel Sampler; Geoprobeฎ Large-Bore Soil
Sampler; and the AMS Dual Tube Liner
Sampler. Two soil gas sampling technologies
were demonstrated: EMFLUXฎ Soil Gas
Investigation System; and Gore-Sorberฎ
Screening Survey Passive Soil Gas Sampling
System. Each of these technologies, and the
results of the demonstration, are described below.
JMC Environmentalist's Subsoil Probe (ESP)
JMC Environmentalist's Subsoil Probe
consists of a sampling tube assembly, the ESP
body, and a jack used to assist in sample retrieval.
The sampler can be advanced using manual or
direct-push methods. The sampler has been used
to collect samples of sandy and clayey soil
contaminated with high concentrations of VOCs.
The sampler can also collect samples for
polychlorinated biphenyls, polynuclear aromatic
hydrocarbons, pesticides, and metals analyses.
Demonstration results indicate that the
ESP sampler had higher sample recoveries in
both the clayey soil present at the SB A site and in
the sandy soil present at the CSC site than the
standard sampling methods. VOC concentrations
in samples collected with the ESP sampler from
the SBA site significantly differed from
concentrations in samples collected using the
standard methods; however, this difference was
not observed for samples collected from the CSC
site. Sample integrity using the ESP sampler was
preserved in highly contaminated soil. The
sampler's reliability and throughput were
generally better than those of the standard
methods. Costs for the ESP sampler were much
lower than costs related to the standard sampling
methods.
Simulprobeฎ Core Barrel Sampler
The SimulProbeฎ Technologies, Inc.
(SimulProbeฎ), core barrel sampler consists of a
split core barrel similar to a split-spoon sampler,
a drive shoe, and a core barrel head. The sampler
is constructed of steel, and is capable of
recovering a discrete sample 1.25 inches in
diameter and 27 inches long.
The SimulProbeฎ core barrel sampler can
be used to collect unconsolidated, subsurface soil
samples at depths that depend on the capability of
the advancement platform. The sampler can be
advanced into the subsurface using a direct-push
platform, drill rig, or manual methods.
Demonstration results indicate that the
core barrel sampler had higher sample recoveries
and yielded samples with higher VOC
concentrations in the clayey soil present at the
SBA site than the standard methods. Conversely,
the sampler had lower recoveries and yielded
samples with lower VOC concentrations than the
standard methods in the sandy soil present at the
CSC site. Sample integrity using the core barrel
sampler was not preserved in highly
contaminated soil, and the use of sample liners
was found to be required to preserve sample
integrity. The core barrel sampler's reliability
and throughput were not as good as those of the
standard methods; however, the developer claims
that the sampler used during the demonstrations
was incorrectly manufactured. Costs for the core
barrel sampler were lower than costs related to
the standard sampling method.
Geoprobeฎ Large-Bore Soil Sampler (LBS)
The LBS Sampler is a single tube-type,
solid barrel, closed-piston sampler. It is designed
to be driven by the Geoprobe percussion probing
machine to collect discrete interval soil samples
but can be used for continuous coring if needed.
This direct-push sampler is for use in
unconsolidated soils. It is capable of recovering
a soil core 22 inches long by 1-1/16 inches in
diameter. The LBS sampler can be used to
collect soil samples for both organic and
inorganic analytes.
The LBS sampler demonstration results
indicate that the it can provide useful, cost-
effective samples for environmental problem
solving. In some cases, however, VOC data
collected using the LBS Sampler may be
18
-------
statistically different from VOC data collected
using the reference sampling method. The
integrity of a lined sample chamber may not be
preserved when the sampler is advanced through
highly contaminated zones in clayey soils.
Art's Manufacturing and Supply - AMS Dual
Tube Liner Sampler (DTL)
The AMS sampler consists of two steel
tubes of differing diameters designed so that the
two tubes fit within one another. The direct-
push drill rig used to mount the dual tube liner
sampler must be a 0.75-ton or heavier pickup
truck supplied by the buyer or a custom-made
truck assembled by AMS. The DTL sampler can
be used to collect unconsolidated, subsurface soil
samples at depths that depend on the capability of
the direct-push advancement platform. The
sampler has been used to collect samples of sandy
and clayey soil contaminated with high
concentrations of VOCs.
Demonstration results indicate that the
DTL sampler had higher sample recoveries in the
clayey soil present at the SB A site than the
standard methods. Conversely, the sampler had
lower recoveries than the standard methods in
the sandy soil present at the CSC site. VOC
concentrations in samples collected with the dual
tube liner sampler did not significantly differ
statistically from concentrations in samples
collected using the standard methods. Sample
integrity using the DTL sampler was preserved in
highly contaminated soil. The sampler's
reliability and throughput were generally as good
as those of the standard methods. Costs for the
dual tube liner sampler were lower than costs
related to the standard sampling methods.
EMFLUXฎ Soil Gas Investigation System
Quadrel's EMFLUXฎ System is a
passive, near-surface investigative technology
capable of identifying buried VOCs and semi-
volatile organic compounds (SVOC) at
concentrations in the low parts per billion range.
The EMFLUXฎ System has been employed with
great effectiveness in detecting a broad range of
VOCs and SVOCs in soil, groundwater, and air.
The technology has also been successful in
identifying and mapping methane, non-methane
landfill gases, mercury, certain types of high
explosives, and chemical surety materials.
The demonstration results indicate that the
EMFLUXฎ system can provide useful, cost-
effective data in clayey and sandy soils. The
sampler identified target VOCs and may be able
to detect lower concentrations of VOCs in soil
gas than the reference method. The results of the
demonstration did not indicate consistent
proportional comparability between the
EMFLUXฎ data and the reference method's
data. The EMFLUXฎ system is operational and
has been used on 350 major projects in 46 U.S.
states, Guam, Canada, Great Britain, South
America, Poland, and the Czech Republic.
Gore-Sorberฎ Screening Survey Passive Soil
Gas Sampling System
The GORE-SORBERฎ Screening Survey
employs the use of patented passive soil vapor
sampling devices (GORE-SORBERฎ Modules),
which are made of an inert, microporous,
expanded polytetrafluoroethylene membrane.
The membrane restricts transfer of soil and
liquid, but allows the soil gases to move across
the membrane for collection onto engineered
sorbents. These sorbents are designed to
minimize the effects of water vapor and to detect
a broad range of VOCs and SVOCs. GORE-
SORBERฎ Screening Surveys have been used
successfully at sites for determining subsurface
areas impacted by VOCs and SVOCs. Organic
compounds commonly detected include
halogenated solvents, straight- and branched-
chain aliphatics, aromatics, and polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons.
The SITE demonstration showed that the
GORE-SORBERฎ Screening Survey is more
sensitive than active soil gas sampling, and
therefore more accurate in terms of detecting and
reporting low concentrations of some compounds.
The technology demonstration also revealed that
this survey is more accurate when the soil
conditions would otherwise restrict the use of
active soil gas methods, for example, where the
soil is very dense or nearly saturated.
19
-------
Additionally, this sorbent based method provides analysis for those projects that have more
a more robust system for sample collection and stringent data quality objectives.

-------
FY 98 Progress and Accomplishments
Demonstration Program
The objective of the Demonstration
Program is to conduct field demonstrations and
high-quality performance verifications of viable
remediation technologies at sites that pose high
risks to human health and/or the environment, are
common throughout a region or the nation, or
where existing remediation methods are
inadequate or too costly. The SITE Program
solicits applications annually from those
responsible for cleanup operations at hazardous
waste sites. Respondents and these individuals
may suggest one or more technologies. A panel
of SITE Program scientists, engineers, and
associated environmental experts reviews the
applications to identify those technologies that
best represent solutions for the most pressing
environmental problems. The resulting data and
reports are intended for use by decision-makers in
selecting remediation options and for increasing
credibility in innovative applications.
The need for credible and reliable data for
innovative technologies remains significant. For
example, of the 80 RODs signed in 1994 that
selected established technologies as the best
alternative, 16 (or 20 percent) considered an
innovative technology as an alternative for
remediation of the site. The majority of the RODs
indicated that innovative technologies were not
chosen due to a lack of verified performance and
implementability. The SITE Program serves to
fill this need for credible evaluations so that more
effective, cost-efficient methods can be used on
remediation problems.
During the first 10 years of the SITE
Program, an emphasis was placed on innovative
technologies for permanent treatment that usually
required the removal of soil or groundwater.
UNPROVEN
TECHNOLOGY
Most field demonstrations during this period in
the program's history involved ex situ
physical/chemical and thermal technologies that
could be field tested in a matter of days or weeks.
The need for innovative, in situ technologies that
provide more cost-effective approaches, provide
less secondary waste, and are less intrusive will
continue to increase. The SITE Program has
recognized this need and has emphasized the
development of in situ technologies. As shown in
Figure 7, 66 completed SITE projects have been
ex situ and 35 in situ. Of the 24 ongoing or
planned demonstrations, 16 are in situ, while only
eight are ex situ.
Field demonstration and evaluation of in
situ technologies may require several months or
years of data collection. Based on the SITE
Program's increased emphasis on in situ
technologies, the number of ongoing
demonstrations will likely increase, with fewer
moving from ongoing to completed status each
year than in the past. It is estimated that six field
demonstrations will be completed each year.

the Demonstration Program, ETP, and MMT
Program are listed in Appendices A and B.
Emerging Technology Program
Nine solicitations were issued from
November 1987 (E01 Solicitation) to July 1995
(E09 Solicitation). A total of 77 technology
development projects were initiated under the
ETP, and 66 projects have been completed.
Eighteen of the ETP projects are in the SITE
Demonstration Program. The completed ETP
projects for FY 98 are listed in Table 3.
Monitoring and Measurement Technologies
Program
The MMT Program has leveraged its
resources with EPA's Environmental Technology
Verification Program. These two programs,
known collectively as the Consortium for Site
Characterization Technologies, have developed
a partnership with the DOE. Resources from the
SITE Program are used solely for those
technologies addressing hazardous waste. This
partnership will help to address the demands on
the MMT Program and reduce the backlog of
applications submitted by developers of
innovative technologies.
To further advance the MMT Program, a
stakeholder group was formed to assist in
outreach activities and in the selection of
technologies. An advocates program involving
the EPA Regional offices was also established to
assist in the MMT demonstration process and to
ensure that the products of the demonstrations
address EPA issues.
Technology Verification Process
The technology verification process is designed
to generate high-quality data that can be used by
EPA to verify technology performance. Four key
steps are inherent in the process:

Phytoremediation of groundwater involves planting deep-
rooted, water-loving vegetation to reduce contaminant
concentrations in the saturated zone. The U.S. Air Force has
initiated a field demonstration designed to evaluate the
effectiveness of eastern cottonwood trees in remediating
shallow groundwater contaminated with TCE.
The constructed wetlands-based treatment technology uses
natural geochemical and microbiological processes inherent in
an artificial wetland ecosystem to accumulate and remove
metals from influent waters. The demonstration evaluated
process effectiveness, toxicity reduction, and biogeochemical
processes at the Burleigh Tunnel near Silver Plume, Colorado.
This technology uses microbial detoxification of cyanide in
heap leach processes to reduce cyanide levels in spent ore and
process solutions. The biotreatment populations of natural soil
bacteria are grown to elevated concentrations, which are
applied to spent ore by drip or spray irrigation.
The ENVTROBOND solution strongly binds heavy metals in
a metal-ligand compound to prevent leaching. It can be
applied to reduce metal availability in contaminated soils and
other wastes.
The Soil Rescue solution consists of organic acids that are
sprayed onto and then tilled into the contaminated media. The
organic acids act as a chelating agent to bond to metals,
thereby reduce their teachability.

Needs Identification and Technology Selection
The first aspect of the technology verification
process is to determine the most important
technology needs of EPA and the regulated
community. EPA, the Department of Defense,
DOE, industry, and state agencies are asked to
identify technology needs and interest in a
technology area. Once a technology need is
established, a search is conducted to identify
suitable technologies that will address the need.
The technology search and identification process
consists of reviewing responses to Commerce
Business Daily announcements, searches of
industry and trade publications, attendance at
related conferences, and leads from technology
developers. MMTs are evaluated against the
following criteria:
Meets regulatory or user needs
May be used in the field or in a mobile
laboratory
Applicable to a wide variety of
environmentally impacted sites
High potential for resolving problems for
which current methods are unsatisfactory
> Costs are competitive with current
methods
> Performance is better than current
methods in areas such as data quality,
sample preparation, or analytical
turnaround time
> Uses techniques that are easier and safer
than current methods
> Is a commercially available, field-ready
technology
Demonstration Planning and Implementation
After a technology has been selected, EPA, the
support contractor, and the technology developer
agree to responsibilities for conducting the
demonstration and evaluating the technology.
The following issues are addressed at this time:
> Identifying demonstration sites that will
provide the appropriate physical or
chemical attributes, in the desired
environmental media
> Identifying and defining the roles of
demonstration participants, observers, and
reviewers

A two-step anaerobic/aerobic biodegradation sequence allows
degradation of PCE and TCE to lesser chlorinated DCE and
vinyl chloride in the anaerobic stage. The aerobic stage then
degrades DCE and vinyl chloride.
This process applies a low level DC electrical potential to
cause physical-chemical and hydrological changes in the waste
and the conductive medium. This augments uniform transport
of process additives, and therefore enhances biodegradation.
This process removes heavy metals from contaminated soils
and sludges by forming a soluble chelate. Metals can then be
separated from the sludge and recovered.
This technology enhances in situ bioremediation by the
subsurface injection of oxygen microbubbles in a water
solution containing low concentrations of surfactant. The
microbubbles provide an electron acceptor for indigenous
microorganisms to enhance biodegradation rates.
Phytoremediation can be used to enhance biological
degradation of a variety of organic contaminants in the near
surface zone.
Bioremediation processes can be used for in situ
biomineralization of heavy metals in soils, sludges, and
sediments. Microorganisms can be used to cause metal
hydroxides, oxides, and carbonates to precipitate, and stabilize
in a less leachable form.
The automated Segmented Gate System uses a conveyor to
transport radioactively contaminated soil under an array of
radiation detectors. Contaminated material is diverted to a
disposal area, while clean material can be reclaimed, thereby
reducing cleanup costs.

Report Preparation
Innovative technologies are evaluated
independently and, when possible, against
reference technologies. The field technologies
are operated by the developers in the presence of
independent technology observers. Technology
observers are provided by EPA or a third party
group. Demonstration data are used to evaluate
the capabilities, limitations, and field applications
of each technology. Following the
demonstration, all raw and reduced data used to
evaluate each technology are compiled into a
technology evaluation report, which is mandated
by EPA as a record of the demonstration. A data
summary and performance evaluation of each
technology are published in an Environmental
Technology Verification Report (ETVR).
Demonstrations in FY 98
During FY 98, ETVRs were completed
for four soil and two soil gas sampling
technologies. In FY97, the demonstrations were
conducted for these technologies. The
technologies were demonstrated in Albert City,
Iowa and Commerce City, Colorado. Individual
ETVRs have been prepared for each technology.
A brief description of the technologies and the
field demonstrations is given in the Innovative
Technology Highlights section of this report.
Ongoing Demonstrations
The MMT Program has identified
sediment sampling technologies for a
demonstration to be conducted during FY 99.
Because sediment sample collection and analysis
play an important role in ecological risk
assessment studies, as well as wetland protection,
the science and practice of sediment sampling is
of considerable interest to EPA Regional and
Program Offices. This MMT project will test two
innovative sediment sampling devices that may
prove to be more efficient or cost-effective than
current technologies (see Table 4). The
performance of each technology will be
compared to commonly used, conventional
procedures. The demonstration will also collect
information describing the ease of operation, cost
and other relevant performance characteristics of
these devices. The demonstration results will
assist EPA and others in the understanding and
use of alternate sediment sampling technologies
and will enhance the commercial development of
these devices.

Future Direction
Introduction
During FY 98, the SITE Demonstration
Program began its second year operating under a
market driven approach. This approach continues
to emphasize the importance of first selecting a
site and secondly evaluating one or more
appropriate innovative technologies. The
selection of these sites and technologies is
important in meeting the needs of those
responsible for selecting and implementing
hazardous waste cleanup.
Three sites were selected under the first
host site solicitation. A wide range of
representation ensures that the most pressing
issues are prioritized and addressed. These sites
were selected by a review group comprised of
representatives from the following organizations:
DOD Environmental Security and Technology
Certification Program (ESTCP)
DOE Office of Science and Technology
EPA Office of Solid Waste and Emergency
Response
EPA Regional Offices
Interstate Technology and Regulatory
One of the selected sites completed an evaluation
of two technologies during FY 98. The two
additional sites are continuing evaluation of
technologies through FY 99.
In response to stakeholders demand, the
MMT Program initiated a series of
demonstrations designed to evaluate innovative
sampling technologies. In FY 98, four soil and
two soil gas sampling technologies were
evaluated. In FY 99, a field demonstration of
sediment sampling technologies will be
conducted. These projects are designed to address
ongoing difficulties in obtaining representative
samples at defined depths using less expensive
and less complex equipment.
Technology Areas of Primary Interest
The areas of primary interest remain an
important part of appropriate site selection.
Stakeholder groups, like those used in selecting
the sites and technologies, identify these areas
with technical staff within ORD. This helps
ensure that the most pressing needs are met.
In FY 98 the SITE Program continued to
emphasize the need for technologies capable of
in-situ remediation of dense non-aqueous phase
liquids (DNAPLs) in difficult geological
formations. This continues to be a theme through
the remediation community as a whole. This also
parallels the theme set in the 1997 National
Research Council (NRC) report titled Innovation
in Groundwater and Soil Cleanup
(www.NAP.EDV/readingroom ISBN #0309-
06358-2). As the complexity of the geological
formation increases so does the need for
innovative technologies to treat or detect DNAPL.
Metals in soils, treatment of recalcitrant
compounds and the general need for in situ
treatment remain high on the priority list.
Sediments is another area where the
remediation community would benefit from new
processes, approaches or less expensive methods
for treatment. In situ treatment, sampling and
containment are technology areas of interest. An
increase of projects in these areas is expected in
the future. Table 5 outlines the areas of interest
of the SITE Program, and Table 6 describes the
demonstrations that are planned for FY 99.

MMT Program Areas of Interest
Emerging field analytical areas which will
be included in the MMT Program include in situ
monitoring technologies, especially for ground
water. The MMT Program is interested in testing
non-invasive techniques for site characterization,
including a variety of geophysical techniques
which claim to be able to map a DNAPL plume
without the need for drilling wells. Evaluation of
these technologies will be very complex and will
likely be conducted at controlled spill facilities.
Because of the importance of effective
water quality monitoring to human and
environmental health, the MMT Program is
planning a demonstration in FY 00 to evaluate
the performance of water quality monitoring
equipment. This demonstration will evaluate a
number of new and portable devices that have
been proposed to measure various chemical
indicators more accurately and inexpensively.
There are a number of biological tests for
toxicity in soils and water that are relevant to
ecological risk assessment, and that may be
useful in waste and drinking water treatment
facilities. A demonstration is planned for FY 01
in order to evaluate the effectiveness of new
biological assessment techniques that may be
highly sensitive and inexpensive test methods.
Since the program has matured, a number
of developers in the area of X-ray fluorescence
and gas chromatography / mass spectromety have
made significant improvements in their
technology and will be candidates for abbreviated
demonstrations which will evaluate the
improvements.
Partnerships for Success
Federal to Federal Interface
Federal to federal interface is an
important aspect to enhancing the benefits of
technology demonstrations. It allows for
leveraging resources, expedited cost and
performance information exchange and cross
fertilization of technical expertise between
agencies. In common environmental areas of
interest this type of joint research is of great
More Difficult
benefit to all parties involved. One example of
this type of approach is the Interagency DNAPL
Consortium (IDC).
Federal Interface: Cape Canaveral
Air Station SITE Demonstration
The IDC at the Cape Canaveral site is
comprised of EPA, DOE, DOD, and NASA. The
objective of the group is to conduct side-by-side
demonstrations of 3 innovative technologies for
DNAPL remediation and monitoring. The
demonstration will be conducted at Cape
Canaveral Air Station Launch Complex 34. The
SITE Program will provide the independent cost
and performance evaluation. The Air Force and
DOE are combining resources to contract the
technology vendors to complete demonstrations.
NASA is providing the site and in-kind services
for the completion of the demonstrations. NASA
plans to use successful demonstration results as a
basis for selecting the appropriate technology for
remediating Launch Complex 34.
The geological formation at the NASA
Cape Canaveral site is in what is considered a less
difficult to treat formation (Figure 8). In FY 00-
01, the IDC is interested in performing work at
more difficult to treat geological formations such
as heterogeneous saturated and unsaturated zones,
fractured bedrock and complex clays. It is
expected that different types of technologies may
be needed to treat varying complex formations.
These joint projects could potentially identify
several innovative options or approaches to
solving environmental problems where currently
there are no solutions.
Federal to State Interface
Where there are common environmental
areas of interest, it is equally important to have
federal to state interactions as it is federal to
federal cooperation. The ITRC provide a
mechanism to interact with multiple state
regulatory agencies and state specific verification

programs. Like cooperation with other federal
agencies, direct interaction with multiple state
agencies provides many benefits. State
regulatory agencies are also faced with hazardous
waste clean-up, and regulations may vary
between states. Interaction among multiple states
on SITE projects can result in multiple technical
issues being addressed in one field demonstration.
This reduces duplication of field demonstrations
to answer one or more state specific regulatory
questions.
The ITRC currently has several
workgroups that crosscut the SITE Program's
environmental priority areas of interest. The
various groups are as follows: 1) Passive Barrier
Workgroup, 2) DNAPL Workgroup, 3)
Phytoremediation Workgroup. These groups are
invited to participate in SITE Program
demonstrations projects. Groups choose to
participate at a level required by the objectives of
the workgroup. Involvement of the workgroups
allows for better planning and exchange of
technical requirement early in the project
planning.
State Interface: Rocky Flats SITE
Demonstration
One example of multistate participation is
the passive barrier technology demonstration at
the DOE Rocky Flats facility. The passive barrier
workgroup attended a technical visitors day
hosted by DOE and EPA. The group lead by
DOE discussed construction, design and
technology implementation. EPA led the
discussion on the approach for testing and
evaluating the demonstration. The ITRC team
also participated in a field tour where they
witnessed sampling procedures related to the
performance demonstration.
Another important workgroup within the
ITRC is the verification team. This team worked
with 11 different verification programs including
SITE in evaluating and documenting technical
and cost parameters that are important to the
different states. The document will be a useful
tool in determining and meeting the technical
information needs of the state regulatory agencies.
The report includes a variety of elements to be
included in verification program reports. The
states participating in the ITRC were encouraged
31
-------
by the willingness of the programs to
accommodate states' needs. This type of
cooperation will enhance states' confidence in the
results of verification and allow them to make
more informed decisions regarding use of
innovative remediation technologies.
Information Transfer
Information transfer is accomplished
through a number of mechanisms. While the
internet information distribution is an effective
mechanism, published documentation, meetings,
and conferences remain an essential part of
technical information dissemination.
Coordination with existing remediation
workgroups and programs is also essential. The
SITE Program continues to work cooperatively
with DOD's ESTCP Program, the Environmental
Council of States (ECOS) sponsored ITRC, and
as stated previously plans a much stronger
technical relationship with the DOE's Office of
Science and Technology.
Internet service allows for quick and
easily accessible information, and saves time and
costs in publication. In FY 98, SITE converted
all earlier publications to electronic format and
has made those documents accessible through the
SITE homepage. General program information
is available as well as quarterly reports, most
recent documents, program highlights and the
technology profiles of the vendors participating in
the program. As a result of the homepage, the
number of documents printed has been reduced by
75%. According to Web Server Statistics, the
monthly average number of hits for electronic
information solicited from the SITE homepage
over the last year was 514. Numerous requests
come from outside the US, reflecting an increased
global interest in the SITE Program.
The program will continue pursuing and
supporting the development of document
summaries in areas where data exists on a variety
of technologies or applications. The information
is useful in providing the user community with
comparative technical information and costs
within an area. Documentation will continue for
some time since many of the technologies are in
situ and highly complex. In situ technology
evaluations are tested over varying lengths of
time, with a minimum time of 3-6 months. Most
are evaluated for one year. In the case of
phytoremediation, growing seasons span 2-3
years. The summaries will need updating as the
technologies mature and information becomes
available.

Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation
(SITE) Demonstration Program. The SITE
Demonstration program was established by EPA's
Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response and
the Office of Research and Development to encourage
the development and implementation of innovative
treatment technologies for the remediation of
hazardous waste sites, and monitoring and
measurement. Through the program, technologies are
field-tested on hazardous waste materials and
engineering and cost data are gathered on the
innovative technology so that potential users can
assess the technology's applicability to a particular site.
Data collected during the field demonstrations are used
D-6
-------
to assess the performance of the technology, the
potential need for pre- and post-processing of the
waste, applicable types of wastes and waste
matrices, potential operating problems, and
approximate capital and operating costs. The
collected information is then provided in a Innovative
Technology Evaluation Report, Technology Capsule,
and Demonstration Bulletin. These reports evaluate
all available information on the technology and
analyze its overall applicability to other site
characteristics, waste types, and waste matrices.
Testing procedures, performance and cost data, and
quality assurance and quality standards also are
presented. The SITE Demonstration program can be

Technology Innovation Office (TIO). The U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) TIO was
created in 1990 to act as an advocate for new
technologies. TIO's mission is to increase the
application of innovative treatment technologies to
contaminated waste sites, soils, and groundwater. To
Meet that mission, TIO has expanded its focus from
treatment technologies to include site characterization
technologies in order to improve the remediation
process. TIO has encouraged and relied on
cooperative ventures with other partners to accomplish
many of its goals. This effort to effectively use
resources has led to numerous joint efforts that have
enhanced the state of both remediation and site
characterization. For additional information about TIO,
contact Jeff Heimerman of EPA's TIO at (703) 603-
7191. TIO can be accessed through the Internet at
