Treatability Study Report for Remediation of Chemical Warfare Agent Contaminated Soils Using Peroxysulfate Ex-Situ Treatment.

Abstract

This laboratory scale study examines the feasibility of using peroxysulfate based oxidants to remediate soils contaminated with GB, Hi), and VX. The project was conducted with chemical warfare agent simulants. The study concludes that peroxysulfates, and particularly peroxydisulfate, can degrade chemical warfare agent simulants in soil and recommends continuing research.
