A pilot-scale field test of in situ alcohol flushing for enhanced solubilization and extraction of a PCE source zone was conducted at the former Sages Dry Cleaner site located in Jacksonville, FL. Alcohol flushing successfully removed a substantial volume (62-65%) of the DNAPL, although evidence indicated that continued alcohol flushing would have resulted in a greater NAPL removal effectiveness.
