Initial filter testing was conducted under a joint effort between the Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management and EPA’s Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response with respect to the proposed Hazardous Waste Combustor Maximum Achievable Control Technology. Work has since been conducted for various DOE sites and also for the National Nuclear Security Administration. Dr. Waggoner served as a member of the ASME CONAGT Main Committee, Filtration Subcommittee, Technology Subcommittee, and several project teams.
