Current Status and Prospects of Remediation Technology for POPs Contaminated Sites

Abstract:

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) has the typical features of persistence, long-range transport, biological accumulation and high toxicity, so that POPs contaminated sites have posed much risk to human health and environment, which is in urgent need of improvement. At present, there are many international advanced remediation methods and engineering practices, but it has not formed the mature remediation technology system in China. Through studying the international concrete examples of remediation technologies, the paper completely reviews the attributes and characteristics of various technology methods, puts forward preliminary technology management system for the remediation of POPs contaminated sites, then provides methodology process for screening the treatment technologies for POPs contaminated sites in China.
