Short description: DNAPL Website. EPA's Office of Superfund Remediation and Technology Innovation has released a website that compiles available information related to the cleanup of dense nonaqueous-phase liquids (DNAPLs) at hazardous waste sites. This initial phase addresses the most common DNAPL contaminants: chlorinated ethenes (e.g., tetrachloroethene and trichloroethene) and multi-component wastes (creosotes, coal tars, and heavy oils). Future expansion may include ethers, halogenated alkanes, polychlorinated biphenyls, and other chemicals that form DNAPLs. With the primary focus on source zone cleanup, information is provided for available remediation technologies, such as bioremediation, in situ flushing and oxidation, and thermal processes. EPA will maintain the website by adding new resources as they become available.
