In situ remediation techniques have experienced a boom over the last few years, thereby producing a wide range of valuable experiences. Their results have demonstrated that in situ techniques are a mature alternative to conventional remediation techniques. Irrespective of future policy developments, it is impossible to imagine future remediation practice without the use of in situ techniques. The book presents an overview of recent developments in the field of in situ soil remediation. The book is unique in that it is not a compilation of unrelated case studies. A conceptual approach has been chosen; remediation models described in this book are illustrated from a practical point of view. The authors present the Dutch way of treating contaminated land; The Netherlands is renowned for being at the forefront of remediation techniques as a result of the country's progressiveness and experience in this area.

From supertanker oil spills to leaking underground storage tanks, contamination from petroleum hydrocarbon fuels and other organic compounds is a problem throughout the world. A considerable body of experience has been built up over the past two decades in applying in situ bioremediation to a variety of contaminants in all media. This volume provides a comprehensive guide to the latest technological breakthroughs in both the laboratory and the field, covering such topics as air sparging, cometabolic biodegradation, treatment of MTBE, real-time control systems, nutrient addition, rapid biosensor analysis, multiphase extraction, and accelerated bioremediation.

Written by internationally eminent experts in cardiovascular imaging, this volume provides state-of-the-art information on the use of MRI and CT in the assessment of cardiac and vascular diseases. This third edition, now in four-color, reflects recent significant advances in cardiovascular MRI technology and the continuing emergence of multi-detector CT as an important diagnostic modality, particularly for ischemic heart disease. Seven new chapters have been added including chapters on anatomy, cardiovascular MR in infants/children, assessing myocardial viability, risk assessment in ischemic heart disease and MR guidance.
The symposium included 600 presentations in 50 sessions on bioremediation and supporting technologies used for a wide range of contaminants already in, or poised to invade, soil, groundwater, and sediment. Three hundred and fifty-two papers were selected and organized into ten volumes. Volume six's articles address the ex situ treatment of contaminated soil, including ex-situ bioreactors, land treatment and farming, biopiles, and composting for the treatment of petroleum-contaminated soil; energetic and phenolic compounds, and amine wastes from the gas industry; and organophosphorus pesticides. Articles average eight pages, and contain abstracts and references. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR.

Three hundred and fifty-two papers were selected and organized into ten volumes. Volume seven's articles examine the use of enhanced anaerobic biotransformation processes for treatment of chlorinated solvents in soil and groundwater. Electron donors used to stimulate reductive dechlorination processes in lab- and field-scale demonstrations are also presented. Articles average eight pages, and contain abstracts and references.
