The above examples are listed only to serve as what can happen if proper attention is not devoted
to up-front development and is not intended to be all-inclusive.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The major conclusions to be drawn from the literature search are: (1) much development effort has
been devoted to tixing a variety of waste in a cement-based matrix, and (2) each waste stream must
be carefully characterized prior to any successful development effort.
The following recommendation is germane: a well defined technology development effort that starts
with lab scale, progresses through pilot scale, and ends in full scale testing and demonstration is
necessary to assure successful plant design and operation.
It is recommended that the Shred-grout development effort in support of WRAP start in FY-1992
to assure that adequate information in process development and equipment selection be available
when needed.
It is recommended-that a team be-organized consisting of at least the following persons: (1) a R&D
manager. ( 2) a R&D engineer. (3) a QA specialist, and (4) a compliance specialist.
The manager should be the point of contact for information flow and should be dedicated full-time
to the effort. The (project) engineei should be responsible for any design, construction, or
--- -- - engir:eering-work-needed to support development work. l}te engineer should also be responsible for
costs and budgets. The QA specialist will be necessary to insure quality is "built in" throughout the
development effort. The compliance specialist will assure that the end product meets or exceeds
regulatory requirements. The compliance specialist will be responsible for assuring that all activities
are carried out in compliance with federal, state, and local regulations, laws, and standards for
protection of the environment and the safety and health of involved employees and the public.
