Rehabilitation of Solid Industrial Wastes Disposal Sites C. S. GROVE, JR., Professor MARK L. KESTNER, Research Associate N. L. NEMEROW, Professor Department of Civil Engineering Syracuse University Syracuse, New York INTRODUCTION Solid industrial wastes arise from many different sources in a large variety of industries. As such they vary in quantity, physical and chemical properties, methods of disposal and potential re-uses. The major objectives of this research are 1) to determine the quantities, physical and chemical properties of major solid industrial wastes and 2) to study modifications of these properties that will permit useful byproduct recovery or rehabilitation and beautification of the presently barren land areas covered by deposition of these wastes. To meet these objectives the following coordinated program is being carried out: 1) collect and collate the available information and data concerning quantities, characteristics, methods of disposal and potential re-uses of various solid industrial wastes; 2) determine common physical and chemical properties and variants of the categorized wastes; 3) project total national industrial solid waste production for selected groups of industries; 4) study methods and rates of infiltration, percolation and leaching, under simulated and natural conditions, for removal of valuable by-products and harmful or undesirable constituents which at present render the land areas covered by deposition of these wastes barren and unproductive. METHODS FOR COLLECTION OF INDUSTRIAL SOLID WASTES INFORMATION The methods used for collecting industrial solid wastes information include: 1) Letters of inquiry; 2) Personal interviews; and 3) Literature survey from 1960 to date. The letters of inquiry were circulated to various industries, universities, and state and federal agencies. Personal interviews were conducted to obtain more detailed information concerning quantities of solid waste production for particular manufacturers or processes. A personal interview of the industrial waste hauler was conducted to provide additional information and a check on the accuracy of the information obtained from the industry. The literature survey is concentrated on articles abstracted in Engineering Index, Chemical Abstracts and Purdue Industrial Waste Conference Proceedings. Letters of Inquiry The initial work associated with this project involved an effort to acquaint the staff with the total industrial solid wastes problem. This phase of the industrial solid waste project was performed by the use of letters of inquiry. These letters were de- - 1072-
