51²è¹Ý¶ù

51²è¹Ý¶ù has also performed numerous hazardous waste studies under Research, Development, and Demonstration (RD&D) regulations for studies exceeding the treatability study exemption limits.

Our hazardous waste experience includes treating Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) contaminated media, including the following:

• Mercury, lead, arsenic, and other heavy metals
• Semivolatile and volatile organic compounds
• Cyanide
• Petroleum
• Radionuclides

Our treatment technologies include low temperature desorption, pyrolysis, thermal oxidation, vitrification, soil washing, leaching, solvent extraction, gravity separation, and chemical oxidation. All hazardous waste studies performed at 51²è¹Ý¶ù are in full compliance with US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) regulations.

In addition to our RCRA waste treatment capabilities, 51²è¹Ý¶ù is authorized to perform treatment studies of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-, dioxin-, and furan-contaminated media under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) research exemption.

Our Radioactive Materials License (Colo. 77-02), issued by CDPHE, allows 51²è¹Ý¶ù to perform studies on certain radioactive and mixed wastes. 51²è¹Ý¶ù is certified by the EPA and many states for radiochemical analysis.
