This paper discusses approaches to the elucidation of the chemical nature of bound residues formed by pyrene degradation in a landfarming system at the Champion International Superfund site, Libby, Montana. These include the use of Synchrotron-based FTIR spectromicroscopy to study degradation reactions of pyrene on surfaces in a model vadose zone environment. C-13-NMR studies of pyrene degradation in soil samples from the Champion site will also be utilized to characterize bound residues. Chemical data from these studies will provide information necessary to assess the use of landfarming as a tool for sustainable soil use.
