Determining the presence of organic compounds in foundry waste leachates.
Determining the Presence of Organic Compounds in Foundry Waste Leachates Research to determine the extent of contamination of groundwater by organic matter in ferrous foundry wastes is presented. The first of two reports on this significant work focuses on a laboratory study to identify the organic compounds that leach from ferrous foundry waste.
At the request of the American Foundrymen's Society, the Dept of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Univ of Wisconsin-Madison undertook a research program to determine the potential for and extent of contamination of groundwater adjacent to foundry waste landfills by organic matter arising from the wastes. The original impetus for this project and a recently completed similar project emphasizing inorganic constituents[1] were to justify to the ...See the full content of this document
