The client was generating sixty (60) tons of lead (Pb) and barium (Ba) contaminated slag per day that failed the TCLP and was transporting the hazardous slag to a Part B permitted TSDS.
An optimization study was conducted to determine the TerraBond®-TS dose rate necessary to lower the leachability concentration of Pb (<0.75 mg/L) and Ba (20mg/L) as required to meet the LDR standards.
Currently the client is saving in excess of $1,000,000 by treating the slag on-site with TerraBond®-TS and transporting the slag off-site as a non-hazardous industrial waste for disposal into a Subtitle D land disposal facility.
