| The MTBE Treatment Profiles provide information about completed and ongoing applications of treatment for methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) in drinking water and media at contaminated sites by describing sites using in situ and ex situ technologies to treat MTBE in drinking water, groundwater, and soil. While the focus of the profiles is on sites with treatment of MTBE, some of these sites also were contaminated with benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX), other oxygenates such as tert-butyl alcohol (TBA), or other compounds such as chlorinated solvents or polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The MTBE treatment profiles provide a summary of relevant site information, contaminants and media, technology design and operation, and cost and performance results, as well as a point of contact and references. The technologies (both in situ and ex situ) presented in the profiles include: air sparging, bioremediation, drinking water treatment, chemical oxidation, multi-phase extraction, phytoremediation, product recovery, pump-and-treat, and soil vapor extraction. |
