RA Capital and Operating Cost Elements
Cost Element
Description
Includes operation (separate items for each subsystem technology) of the plant facility
331XX.13
during the remedial action phase, based on the volume of waste material treated,
Physical Treatment
including portable treatment equipment which is charged on a time basis and can be
used on more than one project (331XX.13.(01.-32.)). Includes a separate item for the
construction of a permanent plant facility, including permanent treatment equipment
which is purchased for one project only (331XX.13.50.). These treatment processes
are the physical separation of contaminants from solid, liquid or gaseous waste
streams.
The treatments are applicable to a broad range of contaminant
concentrations. Physical treatments generally do not result in total destruction or
separation of the contaminants in the waste stream, consequently post-treatment is
often required. Type of physical treatment included in this system are filtration,
washing, and carbon adsorption. Includes process equipment and chemicals required
for treatment. For transportation see "Transport to Treatment Plant" (331XX.05.11,
331XX.06.08, 331XX.08.03 or 331XX.09.04).
Includes operation (separate items for each subsystem technology) of the plant facility
331XX.14
during the remedial action phase, based on the volume of waste material treated,
Thermal Treatment
including portable treatment equipment which is charged on a time basis and can be
used on more than one project (331XX.14.(01.-07.)). Includes a separate item for the
construction of a permanent plant facility, including permanent treatment equipment
which is purchased for one project only (331XX.14.50.). Thermal treatment is the
destruction of wastes through exposure to high temperature in combustion chambers
and energy recovery devices. Several processes capable of incinerating a wide range
of liquid and solid wastes include fluidized bed, rotary kiln, multiple hearth, infrared,
circulating bed, liquid injection, pyrolysis, plasma torch, wet air oxidation,
supercritical water oxidation, molten salt destruction, and solar detoxification.
Includes process equipment and chemicals required for treatment. For transportation
see "Transport to Treatment Plant" (331XX.05.11, 331XX.06.08, 331XX.08.03 or
331XX.09.04).
Includes operation (separate items for each subsystem technology) of the plant facility
331XX.15
during the remedial action phase, based on the volume of waste material treated,
Stabilization/Fixation/
including portable treatment equipment which is charged on a time basis and can be
Solidification
used on more than one project (331XX.15.(01.-07.)). Includes a separate item for the
construction of a permanent plant facility, including permanent treatment equipment
which is purchased for one project only (331XX.15.50.).
Stabilization/fixa-
tion/encapsulation processes attempt to improve the handling and physical
characteristics of the wastes, decrease the surface area, limit the solubility of any
pollutants and detoxify contained pollutants. For transportation see "Transport to
Treatment Plant" (331XX.05.11, 331XX.06.08, 331XX.08.03 or 331XX.09.04).
