8.Treatment
of contaminated soil
|
| Soils contaminated with chemicals and even radioactive wastes
have long polluted Japanese rivers and tributaries. Since the famous " itai-itai"(pain,
pain) case over 30 years ago where rice fields were contaminated by a large
chemical plant, the scale of the problem in Japan has continued to escalate. |
| Research work on plasma arc technology at GIT and in numerous
field tests have documented that plasma torches can effectively and successfully
remediate soils contaminated with toxic materials including radioactive wastes.
