Thermal Processes: In Situ
Halogenated Alkanes
The 17 chlorinated alkanes covered in this focus area are considered amenable to in situ thermal remediation (USACE 2009). Conductive Heating is discussed in USACE 2009.

This document provides guidance and background for the appropriate screening and selection of in situ thermal remediation technologies, including steam enhanced extraction/injection, electrical resistivity heating, and thermal conductive heating. The document is intended to help distinguish proper applications of the technology and identify important design, operational, and monitoring issues.
