European soil remediation for contaminated sites is extensive in some countries and modest in others. Governments of European countries fund substantial research efforts in this field. Their objectives are (1) development of new concepts to achieve lower costs and greater availability of technology and (2) reduction of the differences generally perceived between soil concentration standards and the capability of available technology to meet such standards. Information on soil remediation research was gathered from four countries (Germany, the Netherlands, U.K., and Italy) and the European Union to provide the reader with better insights and opportunities to pursue further areas of joint interest. Four foci for critical soil remediation research in Europe were identified for this review. The first was the availability of individual chemical constituents to respective site cleanup technologies and to underlying mechanisms for remediation. Enhancement of the range of biological treatment potential (within the limits of availability of contaminant substrates) was the second central research area in Europe. The third soil remediation research area focused on cleanup standards. Finally, the fourth broad research topic actually consists of two related issues. One is the need for an overall analysis of net waste from cleanup technologies. The second is whether soil resulting from cleanup still has significant environmental risks. In addition, this review includes recommendations to enhance the U.S. research effort in soil remediation. |
