Abstract This paper provides a summary of the physical and chemical characteristics of plutonium contaminated soils from the Nevada Test Site (NTS). The NTS desires to decrease the amount of plutonium-contaminated soils that must be transported and disposed at the burial site. Volume reduction of these plutonium-contaminated soils has been attempted using various physical, chemical and biological treatment processes. Results of these trials are presented.
