Screening Matrix
• Quick, first-level screening tool for site managers to
increase their awareness of the range of technology
options
• Focus is on on-site and direct analysis tools and
innovative sampling technologies (1 matrix each)
• Evaluates each technology along parameters such as
analytes, media, cost, acceptance, availability, derived
wastes, interferences, turnaround time, etc. Field
Sampling and Analysis Technology Matrix and Reference
Guide
• Currently undergoing a thorough update
Remediation Technologies Screening
Matrix
• Matrix can be used as a screening tool for possible
treatment technologies
• Distinguishes between emerging and mature technologies.
• Qualifies performance based on costs, applicability to
media/contaminant group combinations, commercial
availability and engineering judgment
• Flexible search options to access multiple layers of
information
• Contains detailed information on each technology
