Environmental Chemistry II
Brownfields are previously developed lands that may be contaminated with hazardous substances, pollutants, or other environmental concerns but have the potential for reuse or redevelopment. These sites often present unique challenges due to the need for environmental assessments and clean-up efforts before they can be safely occupied or developed. The existence of brownfields can hinder urban revitalization and economic development, making their remediation an important focus in managing soil contamination.
