Abstract
A method of immobilizing a contaminant within a component includes identifying the contaminant. The component is thermally processed via a specific thermal cycle related to the contaminant. The specific thermal cycle is performed within an inert environment relative to a substrate. The specific thermal cycle is configured to effect a controlled evaporation of volatiles of the contaminant and a controlled coking of remaining contaminant.
