Experts from Vietnam and the US met at a
seminar in Hanoi on May 8 to discuss the use of ‘In-Pile Thermal Desorption’
(IPTD) technology to clean up Agent Orange or Dioxin contamination from the Da
Nang Airport area.
As part
of a joint project between the US Agency for International Development (USAID)
and the Vietnam Ministry of Defence, the ‘In-Pile Thermal Desorption’
technology will clear the Da Nang Airport area of dioxin contamination, said
one US expert.
IPTD is
an advanced technology treatment method that has been used successfully in the
US, EU countries and in Asia to clean up dangerous waste pollutants to make the
environment safe for millions of people and future generations.
Donald
Steinberg, deputy head of the US Agency for International Development, said
that the project to clean up dioxin from the Da Nang Airport area will be very
carefully conducted so as to ensure the safety of both project workers and
local people.
