Remediation & Redevelopment

Our researchers have a lot of interaction with work taking place in the field, thanks to a variety of regulatory and voluntary programs. We focus on applied research with the goal of translating current research into practical applications for recalcitrant problems and emerging risks, such as methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE). We also address issues related to long-term management and process reliability. Our projects and programs address remediation, redevelopment, and revitalization, including:
