In-Situ Thermal Remediation This course provides guidance and background for the appropriate screening and selection of in situ thermal remediation (ISTR) technologies, including steam enhanced extraction injection, electrical resistivity heating, and thermal conductive heating. It is intended to help distinguish proper applications of the technology and identify important design, operational, and monitoring issues relevant to…
In-Situ Air Sparging In-situ air sparging (lAS) is now an established remediation technology. This course provides the information designers and decision makers need to determine the necessary site characterization information needed, and to use that information to evaluate the potential effectiveness of lAS on their sites. This course provides guidance for evaluation of the feasibility…
Evaluating the Progress of Natural Attenuation in Groundwater This course presents a simple, statistically based approach for evaluating the progress of natural attenuation from the data collected during site characterization and long term monitoring. The course also provides an approach to establish the time that should be required to attain the cleanup goals, and an…
Protocol for In-Situ Bioremediation of Chlorinated Solvents Using Edible Oil This course was developed to presents a technical protocol for designing and implementing in-situ bioremediation cleanup strategies at chlorinated solvent sites using edible oil. Management of groundwater contaminated with chlorinated solvents is one of the Department of Defense’s (DoD’s) greatest environmental challenges. Because of their…
