The soil washing process sepa- rates the contaminated fine soil (silt and clay) from the coarse soil (sand and gravel). When completed, the smaller volume of soil, which contains the major- ity of the fine silt and clay particles, can be further treated by other methods (such as incineration or bioremediation) or disposed of according to state A Citizen’s Guide to Soil Washing EPA uses many methods to clean up pollution at Superfund and other sites. Some, like soil washing, are consid-ered new or innovative. Such methods can be quicker and cheaper than more common methods. If you live, A Citizen’s Guide to Soil Washing United States Solid Waste and EPA 542-F-96-002 Environmental Protection Emergency Response April 1996 Agency (5102G) A Quick Look at Soil Washing • Separates fine-grained particles (silt and clay) from coarse-grained particles (sand and gravel). • Significantly reduces the volume of contaminated soil. The time it takes to clean up a site using soil washing depends on several factors: • amount of silt, clay, and debris in the soil • type and amount of pollution in the soil • size of scrubbing unit (The largest units can clean up to 100 cubic yards of soil per day.)
