Summary: Traditional methods, such as particle broadcasting, can not accurately deploy thin layers of high sorption materials, such as: soil, coke, or activated carbon. Therefore, the use of a reactive core mat was used to lay down a thin-layer of these materials at the Anacostia field demonstration. Sorption and hydrodynamic properties of the materials were quantified to be applied to sites contaminated with PCBs.
