Abstract
The continuing challenges associated with the management of hazardous wastes and their impacts on human health and the environment have engaged scientists and engineers in efforts to develop more effective and innovative technologies. As indicated in the introduction to this overview chapter, these efforts have become more organized with expanding emphasis on information retrieval and dissemination, and demonstration of emerging technologies within an applied perspective. Focus on this outcome has been provided by representative examples in this volume of the series. However, while definite progress is being made, additional discovery is needed to further advance the basic science and technology, and to make translation into practice more of a reality.
