Abstract
In addition to laboratory analysis, rapid on-site analysis might be very useful in investigations of soil contaminations:
-
Rapid monitoring of environmental conditions is necessary for safety measures during site investigation, excavation and remedial actions.
-
In case of excavation, rapid decisions have to be made about the extent to which the soil is contaminated.
-
The extent of the contamination can be determined more accurately in the field, which means better sampling for laboratory analysis and thus lower costs.
