Development of Laboratory Procedures to Predict Volatile Losses from Contaminated Sediments

Abstract

This technical note describes the development of laboratory procedures to obtain experimental data on the emission of volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) from exposed sediment. These data are being used to develop and validate predictive volatile emissions models. The information presented herein includes laboratory techniques and some preliminary results obtained during these investigations.
