Hazardous Waste Stabilization and Solidification (Webinar)
Credit: 2 PDH
Subject Matter Expert: M.A. Karim, P.E., PhD, Fellow ASCE
Type: Live Interactive Webinar
In Hazardous Waste Stabilization and Solidification, you'll learn ...
- The definitions of stabilization and solidification as they are used in hazardous waste (HW) management and treatment
- The related regulations and applications of stabilization and solidification when managing HW
- The different mechanisms used in HW stabilization and solidification
- Various technologies using reagents to HW stabilization and solidification, and the different types of testing that ensure compliance with federal guidelines
- The implementation of HW stabilization and solidification in the field, including a visual representation of a system design stabilization flow-chart
Overview
In this webinar, we will define stabilization, solidification, and the related terms used in hazardous waste management and treatment. We will also cover the regulations and applications of stabilization and solidification when managing HW. The different mechanisms of HW management will be elaborated, including microencapsulation, absorption, adsorption, precipitation, and detoxification.
We will also discuss various technologies that use reagents in HW stabilization and solidification, including cement, pozzolans, lime, soluble silicates, and many others. The different types of testing that ensure compliance with federal guidelines will also be explained, which will include, in part, extraction and leaching tests, paint filter tests, liquid release tests, and extraction procedure toxicity tests.
Finally, real-life field implementation of HW stabilization and solidification will be covered in methods such as In-Drum Mixing Alternatives, In-Situ Mixing Alternatives, Plant Mixing Alternatives, followed by an explanation of a system design stabilization flow-chart.
