Table of Contents

 

Sites where nonhalogenated SVOCs may be found include burn pits, chemical manufacturing plants and disposal areas, contaminated marine sediments, disposal wells and leach fields, electroplating/metal finishing shops, firefighting training areas, hangars/aircraft maintenance areas, landfills and burial pits, leaking collection and system sanitary lines, leaking storage tanks, radiologic/mixed waste disposal areas, oxidation ponds/lagoons, pesticide/herbicide mixing areas, solvent degreasing areas, surface impoundments, and vehicle maintenance areas and wood preserving sites. Potentially applicable remediation technologies are presented in Table 2-3. Typical nonhalogenated SVOCs (excluding fuels and explosives, which are presented in Subsection 2.7 and subsection 2.10) encountered at many sites include the following:

1,2-benzacenaphthene Benzidine Ethyl parathion
1,2-Diphenylhydrazine Benzo(a)anthracene Fluorene
1-aminonaphathalene Benzo(a)pyrene Indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene
