Air Force Center for Engineering and the Environment Source Zone Treatment Web Site
The AFCEE Source Zone Treatment technology roadmap is intended to assist Air Force environmental managers in identifying and applying more effective methods for remediating and managing sites with contamination source zones. The web site offers a background on source zone remediation, the relevant issues, 'how-to' tools and knowledge, resources, links, and timely state-of-the-art technology reviews.

EPA's Office of International Affairs Organized the Forced Air Remediation Workshop in Taipei to deliver expert training based on slide presentations to the Environmental Protection Administration in Taiwan. The workshop focused on the correct and effective application of forced-air technologies for the removal of vapor-phase contaminants. The first three training modules discuss technology selection, sampling and monitoring considerations, and how to make the cleanup more environmentally friendly. Five technology-specific modules address applicability, configurations, design considerations and data needs, operating principles, operational strategies, limitations, cross-sections and schematics, and construction and startup/operation.
