Technical Report · Tue Oct 01 04:00:00 EDT 1991

OSTI ID:5220814

The bulletin presents an overview discussion on the importance of and methods for controlling emissions into the air from materials handling processes at Superfund or other hazardous waste sites. It also describes several techniques used for dust and vapor suppression that have been applied at Superfund sites. The bulletin provides information on the applicability of air emission controls for materials handling at Superfund sites, limitations of the current systems, a description of the control methods that have found application to date, site requirements, a summary of the performance experience, the status of the existing techniques and identification of future development expectations, and sources of additional information.
