Description:

GLOBALtechs, the Internet site remediation technologies directory, provides detailed technical

and project information on over 600 proven international technologies. Subscribers to

GLOBALtechs can access technology descriptions, project data and results, technology contacts,

and cost information, all on-line. GLOBALtechs, searched via browser, keyword, or problem

solver, enables subscribers to identify technologies for specific site criteria. GLOBALtechs

provides pertinent, current information to both potential users and suppliers of site remediation

services, without vendor or developer bias. GLOBALtechs was created from merging two

databases currently commercially available: SEDTEC and REMTECTM. GLOBALtechs has

also been updated and expanded to provide the latest information and most innovative

technologies in site remediation. Information will occur on a continuous basis to ensure

subscribers access to the newest information.

SEDTEC, the contaminated sediment removal and treatment technologies directory, was created

by Environment Canada's Remediation Technologies Program (RTP) under the Great Lakes

2000 Cleanup Fund. The database contains over 250 international sediment removal and

treatment technologies with detailed information about the technologies and their projects.

SEDTEC is currently available in CD ROM and diskette format.

REMTEC, the site remediation technologies database, produced by Water Technology

International Corporation (WTI), offers a detailed review of over 500 site remediation treatment

technologies from around the world. WTI created this database to assist technology selection for

site remediation projects and it is commercially available in CD ROM and diskette format.
