National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

Environmental Fate Studies on Certain Munition Wastewater Constituents - Literature Review.

ADA082372

Publication Date	1980
Personal Author	Spanggord, R. J.; Mill, T.; Chou, T. W.; Mabey, W. R.; Smith, J. H.
Page Count	88
Abstract	The objective of this study was to perform a literature review on the transport and transformation processes that may affect the environmental fate of 11 munition wastewater constituents. Estimates of kinetic rate constants for volatilization, sediment adsorption, biodegradation, photolysis, chemical oxidation were made from available literature data. Recommendations for the further elucidation of environmental fate are made to fill the gaps identified in the literature review. (Author)
