| Abstract: | A systematic method for comparing options for the long-term management of surplus elemental mercury in the US is described in this article, using the analytic hierarchy process as embodied in commercially available Expert Choice software. A limited scope multi-criteria decision analysis was performed. Two general types of treatment tehcnologies were evaluated, 1) stabilization/amalgamation and 2) selenide, combined with four disposal options: 1) hazardous waste landfill, 2) hazardous waste monofill, 3) engineered below-ground structure and 4) mined cavity. |
