Title: Computer methodology for transportation agencies to screen technologies for hazardous waste remediation. Technical report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:189870

The objective of this study was to develop a user friendly computerized methodology for screening out the most inappropriate treatment technologies for a specific waste at a specific site. The STEP model was developed for this purpose using knowledge-base expert system techniques. Object oriented programming was used to interface multiple rule-bases, databases, and a simulation model. The STEP model was applied to a case study involving the spillage of 27,000 gallons of JP-4 jet fuel, due to the failure of an automatic shut-off valve, at an air facility.
