NRMRL Research Team Tests Alternative Asbestos Control Method

NRMRL researchers recently collaborated with community officials in Fort Smith, Arkansas, to test an experimental method for asbestos removal from several abandoned buildings at a nearby U.S. Army base. The research team compared the alternative asbestos control method (AACM) with conventional removal technology during the demolition of two 60-year-old wooden structures that formerly comprised the Fort Chaffee base hospital. The research is significant because the findings have the potential to influence future EPA regulations on how asbestos should be handled and removed from buildings.
