ARCADIS Scientists Publish Comprehensive Guide for the Treatment of Groundwater Contamination.DENVER -- ARCADIS (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :ARCAF)(EURONEXT:ARCAD) announced today that two of its predominant scientists, Dr. Suthan Suthersan, P.E., and Dr. Fred Payne Frederick Thomas Payne (September 2, 1880 - January 16, 1954) was a Major League Baseball player who played 6 seasons in the major leagues with the Detroit Tigers (1906-1908) and Chicago White Sox (1909-1911). , co-authored and published "In Situ In place. When something is "in situ," it is in its original location. Remediation Engineering," the next generation book in the science and application of in-situ environmental remediation Generally, remediation means providing a remedy, so environmental remediation deals with the removal of pollution or contaminants from environmental media such as soil, groundwater, sediment, or surface water for the general protection of human health and the environment or from a . "In Situ Remediation Engineering" is the first literary collaboration by Drs. Suthersan and Payne. Adding to an already impressive list of published material by both Dr. Suthersan and Dr. Payne, "In Situ" outlines and provides an accurate guide for environmental engineers and scientists to deploy cost-effective remedial strategies. The book offers extensive coverage of remedial system operation, including the design and implementation of reactive zone methods for treatment of all major classes of groundwater contamination. "Our latest collaboration is unique in that it provides a detailed study of the chemical and biological treatment mechanisms of in-situ treatment technologies, the patterns of contaminant contaminant /con·tam·i·nant/ (kon-tam´in-int) something that causes contamination. contaminant something that causes contamination. distribution in aquifers and strategies for distributing reagents in the subsurface," said Payne, vice president with ARCADIS. "Most importantly Adv. 1. most importantly - above and beyond all other consideration; "above all, you must be independent" above all, most especially , we were able to draw from ARCADIS' worldwide base of experience in chemical and biological treatment processes," added Payne. In-situ remediation methods are preferable to traditional remedial approaches because they can be applied at a lower cost, while improving predictability and shortening the time required to achieve cleanup objectives. According to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. Dr. Suthersan, the text emphasizes the future direction for the successful implementation of in-situ remediation projects. In addition, the book also deals with both innovative and experimental treatment technologies for emerging contaminants such as radionuclides, explosives, pharmaceutical compounds, perchlorate perchlorate: see chlorate. , chlorophenols and solvent stabilizers. Dr. Suthersan is also the author of "Remediation Engineering: Design Concepts and Natural and Enhanced Remediation Systems" and the founding editor of "The Journal of Strategic Environmental Management."
