SUCCESSFUL BIOSTIMULATION AND BIOAUGMENTATION TREATMENT OF DNAPL
Shore, J. | Institute of Environmental Sciences Webinar, 12 August 2019.
An active industrial site polluted with high concentrations of DNAPL, TCA, and TCE in groundwater in Scotland was being addressed using a dual-phase vapor extraction (DPVE) system that was unsuccessful in meeting the remediation goal of a 75% reduction in chlorinated solvent mass. A supplementary membrane interface probe investigation discovered contamination deeper than the maximum treatment depth of the DPVE system (> 6 m). An alternative combined remediation method using biostimulation and bioaugmentation treatment was designed using direct push co-injection at 3-9 m across a 1,200m2 area of a high volume, micellar electron donor and a microbial consortium specifically designed to degrade both chlorinated ethenes and ethanes.
