The Remediation Technologies Screening Matrix  NOTE: This document can only be accessed by those using Netscape (Version 6 or higher) or Internet Explorer.

A user-friendly tool for screening potentially applicable technologies for a remediation project. The matrix allows you to screen 64 in situ and ex situ technologies for either soil or groundwater remediation. Variables used in screening include contaminants, development status, overall cost, and cleanup time. In-depth information on each technology is also available, including direct links to the database of cost and performance reports written by FRTR members.

The Field Sampling and Analysis Technologies Matrix

The Matrix and its accompanying Reference Guide provide project managers and site stakeholders with information for use in identifying methods involving non-intrusive or minimally intrusive technologies in order to optimize sampling locations and minimize well installation. The Matrix includes techniques and instruments that are (1) fieldable and (2) commercially available. The Reference Guide provides a description and additional background information on each technology.

The Decision Support (Software) Tools (DST) Matrix

The DST Matrix contains publicly-funded decision support software tools for environmental restoration activities from such agencies as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Defense, and Department of Energy. This matrix displays the applicability of each tool to contaminant classes and media types, as well as software types supported for input/output, and potential team members that will maximize the use of each tool. The purpose of the matrix is not to compare the tools against one another, but rather, to provide an evaluation of the capabilities and uses of the tools to help project managers better understand how to select the tools appropriate for their specific site needs. Also included are direct links to the tool software homepages, the matrix-development report, and case studies that show how select tools can be used as part of a cleanup project.
