- W337091390 abstract "Decontamination methods tested on hard surfaces include vacuuming, high-pressure hosing with water, high-pressure hosing with water followed by scrubbing, high-pressure hosing with water detergent, high-pressure hosing with water detergent followed by scrubbing, sandblasting, and steam cleaning. Hard-surface areas include concrete, asphalt, plate steel, aluminum, galvanized roofing, tar-paper roofing, unpainted wood, painted wood, glass, brick, stucco, wood shingles, and asbestos shingles. Flats of grass were also exposed. The effectiveness of decontamination methods for large land areas was determined by air sampling during resuspension of the contaminant before and after the decontamination operation and by soil sampling. Decontamination methods tested on land areas included plowing, disking, oiling, soaking with fire foam, sprinkling with water, sprinkling with a water--Alconox solution, flooding with water, and wetting with aqueous ferric chloride solution. Present data available indicate that surface monitor readings decrease with time after the shot. Similarly, air concentration decreased rapidly after cloud passage and varied thereafter according to existing weather conditions; i.e., wind and rain. The most effective means of hard-surface decontamination are listed in order of efficiency as follows: sandblasting, water-detergent scrubbing, water-detergent hosing, water hosing, water scrubbing, steam cleaning, and vacuuming. Effectiveness varied from 98.3 to 66.4%. Operationally, the simplest method formore » pad decontamination appears to be water-detergent hosing. The most effective means of large land-surface decontamination are listed in order of efficiency as follows: plowing, oiling and scraping, scraping, leaching with 0.3 in. of water and scraping, oiling, leaching with 1 in. of water, leaching with 0.3 in. of a water--FeCl/sub 3/ solution, disking, and leaching with 0.3 in. of a water--Alconox solution. Efficiencies varied from 98.3 to 3.0%.« less" @default.
