Tributyltin (TBT) removal from shipyard washwaters and sonar dome water has
been studied for over three years using full-scale field treatment, laboratory
bench-top treatment, and both field and laboratory pilot-scale treatment
processes. This work is ongoing and progress and final reports as well as
proceedings papers are provided. Treatment efforts have included coagulation,
