Soil and Subsurface Contaminant Sensor System Based on Self-Sensed Microcantilever Arrays

Award Year / Program / Phase: 2005 / SBIR / Phase I
Agency: DOE
Principal Investigator: Ralph Whitten, Mr.
Award Amount: $99,949.00
Abstract:
78644S The widespread use of mercury (Hg) in products, along with the equally widespread release of mercury to the environment as a result of manufacturing operations, presents a serious health risk. Mercury contamination is also a significant issue at several government sites, ranging from trace… More
