Contaminated Soil Characterization

Contaminated Soil Characterization is a systematic analytical process in soil remediation by which the type, concentration, speciation, and spatial distribution of contaminants, as well as relevant physicochemical and geotechnical properties of the affected soil, are determined to assess environmental and human health risks and to inform the selection and design of remedial actions.
