Brownfields Redevelopment

In the United States, Brownfields redevelopment is a major focus of the EPA's nationwide cleanup effort. Brownfields cleanup and redevelopment improve commercial company balance sheets through substantial increases in blighted real estate property values.

Brownfields redevelopment is occurring in inner cities, along waterways, even in rural settings. More than half of all cleanup sites include heavy metals contamination found in rail yards, at industrial and chemical sites, metal smelters, steel plants, firing ranges and BRAC sites. Brownfields cleanup involves a broad range of metals contamination from near action levels to extensive hazardous material cleanups involving contaminated waste, soil and sludge. Metals commonly encountered include lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury but many other metals can be encountered.


MT2 provides the following services in support of the EPA’s Brownfields initiative:

• Investigation/feasibility analysis • Technology evaluation • Treatability studies • Treatment cost optimizations • Turnkey in-situ or ex-situ remediation via the company’s proprietary ECOBOND technology • Innovative field analytical methods

The EPA and state regulators have previously approved the ECOBOND technology. The treatment process provides an advanced in-situ or ex-situ approach for a wide variety of metals utilizing innovative methods, converting a RCRA hazardous waste into a non-hazardous material.
