Problem:
Military, industrial and municipal facilities have the potential for heavy metal contamination in soils and buildings caused by a myriad of operations and processes. These include firing ranges, lead based paint, process sludge, smelting, maintenance, electroplating and others. When heavy metals contaminated soils, sediments and buildings are discovered, the challenge is to find a permanent, cost-effective solution to meet government regulations for removal and disposal.

Solution - Chemical Treatment:
AmDyne has licensed the EcoBond™ technology to provide innovative and economical solutions for the treatment and remediation of heavy metals contamination found in soil, sediments and buildings. Working with Metals Treatments Technologies, LCC (MT2), AmDyne has access to a broad portfolio of EPA-approved proprietary and patented chemical treatment additives and processes that permanently stabilizes a wide range of heavy metals, rendering them non-hazardous.

EcoBond™ stabilization process creates safe and stable metal-phosphate complexes that virtually eliminates the leaching of metals. The stabilization process proves its effectiveness by passing the RCRA Toxicity Characteristics Leachate Test Procedure (TCLP).

Applications Include:

	Soils Treatment Contaminated soils can be treated in-situ or ex-situ and within 24 hours of application the metals are stabilized. The volume of waste is typically increased by only 1 to 4%. EcoBond™ can be applied in wet or dry form, therefore allowing flexibility to the type of waste treated.
	Firing Ranges A variety of range residue can be treated with EcoBond™ processes for the maintenance and complete remediation of lead impacted soils, lead particulate and lead dust. The treatment results in non-hazardous materials for disposal.
	Lead Based Paint Lead Based Paint (LBP) can now be treated to chemically stabilize the lead in- place. The EcoBond LBPTM formulations are applied as a paint to either coat, strip or prime the LBP. It can be applied for use in routine maintenance, demolition, and renovation.
