Abstract

The U.S. Departments of Energy (DOE) and Defense (DOD) generate hazardous wastes as a result of routine operations. Waste types range from solvents, fuels, lubricants, and sludges to streams containing mixtures of these and other inorganic and organic compounds, along with potentially radioactive materials. Many of these compounds are amenable to treatment by electrochemical processes that destroy hazardous organic contaminants in aqueous streams at ambient temperatures and pressure. It is also possible to separate the radioactive components of these wastes from solution using electrochemical processes.

In this article, we discuss the environmental factors and issues associated with electrochemical waste treatment processes. We summarize the federal regulations that compel government agencies to conduct environmental management activities. Applications of electrochemical processes to waste treatment and waste minimization at DOE and DOD sites are presented, and issues associated with acceptance of these processes are addressed.

电化学处理与国防相关废物的最小化
美国能源部(DOE)和国防部(DOD)在日常操作中产生危险废物。废物类型包括溶剂、燃料、润滑剂和污泥,以及含有这些和其他无机和有机化合物混合物的流,以及潜在的放射性物质。这些化合物中的许多都可以通过电化学过程处理,在环境温度和压力下破坏水溶液中的有害有机污染物。也可以用电化学方法从溶液中分离这些废物的放射性成分。在本文中,我们讨论了与电化学废物处理过程相关的环境因素和问题。我们总结了强制政府机构进行环境管理活动的联邦法规。介绍了电化学过程在美国能源部和国防部的废物处理和废物最小化中的应用,并讨论了与接受这些过程相关的问题。
