MERCURY SAMPLING and REMEDIATION

Introduction. The objective of this project was to determine the extent of mercury contamination inside a
34,000 sq ft military instrumentation building and to develop remedial techniques to remove that mercury.

Operations. Evangelista:

  • established sampling, analysis, and quality assurance/quality controls goals and methods
  • researched the site background
  • enacted decontamination procedures
  • described planned activities in a Sampling and Analytical Plan and a Health and Safety Plan
  • performed a physical and chemical hazards evaluation
  • established personal protection via monitoring oxygen, explosivity, radiation, mercury, and volatile organic compounds
  • evaluated building components to establish the extent of mercury contamination
  • carried out treatability tests to determine the feasibility of mercury decontamination
