2019 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Fundamentals and Applications for Hazardous Waste Treatment

This session addresses development and use of integrated/hybrid hazardous waste treatment processes/unit treatment trains to enhance treatment efficiency, rendering the waste stream/contaminants with less toxicity. Treatment performance of hazardous waste contaminants involving laboratory-scale studies, pilot-scale investigations, or full-scale remediation activities, including case histories, are particularly encouraged.
