great post

worth another read

then

yet another read



Obtained a Copy of the MSE-TA Presentation Abstract...

The WM2013 MSE-TA presentation, "Strategies for Treating and Dewatering
Contaminated Soils and Sediments Simultaneously," reviews the initial go/no-go MSE-TA laboratory testing of, specifically, Molecular Bonding System (MBS) and Waste Lock 770 (Waste Lock) to simultaneously treat and dewater soils and or sediments. In the laboratory, MSE-TA simulated contaminated soil by spiking soil with lead, mercury, cadmium, and chromium.

The abstract's "Results/Lessons Learned" indicates, “Follow-on treatability testing… ,” or, additional testing needed, of this MBS with Waste Lock combination, for repeatability. See Below. GTGP's promotion of this presentation as being an avenue for near-term shareholder reward, implying 2013 monetary income, appears deceptive.

"Go/No-Go" testing method... From Wikipedia: "In general go/no go testing refers to a pass/fail test (or check) principle using two boundary conditions. The test is passed only when the Go condition is met and also the No go condition fails. The test gives no information as to the degree of conformance to, or deviation from the boundary conditions."

Results/Lessons Learned, typed word for word from the Abstract: "The small scale go/no-go testing proved that MBS and Waste Lock can be added simultaneously to dewater and treat metals contamination to TCLP levels below regulatory standards for the simulated soil samples. Follow-on treatability testing will consist of testing soils spiked with mercury, cadmium, chromium, lead, nickel, and zinc because these metals were routinely used in industry and represent current treatment needs. The testing will be performed later this year using MBS and Waste Lock to obtain repeatable results."

Recap: Presentation is about go/no-go testing in the laboratory...
Specifically, testing of MBS and Waste Lock 77 under lab conditions...
Results indicate additional lab testing for repeatability needed.


Will try and locate a link as time permits.

Wow great DD. More testing needed it seems. Shocker...

Very interesting.
