Approach for On-Site, On-Demand Contaminant-Removal Devices Enabled by Low-Cost 3D Printing

Abstract

The purpose of this technical note is to disseminate methods to design and create a 3D device that could be used to determine relative toxicity potential of existing and emerging contaminants of concern in situ for sediment shoaled in federal navigation channels prior to being dredged. This device has the potential to reduce the cost of conventional sediment evaluations conducted prior to dredging operations.
