The use of vetiver (Vetiveria zizanioides L.) for the remediation of wastewater discharged from tapioca factories
Three experiments were conducted to study the potential use of vetiver (Vetiveria zizanioides L.) to remediate wastewater discharged from a tapioca factory. Two experiments studied the tolerance of vetiver to grow in wastewater, and the other studied the factors influencing the effectiveness of vetiver for the remediation of the wastewater. Vetiver grew well in all wastewater preparations and was ...

Mechanisms and strategies of microbial cometabolism in the degradation of organic compounds – chlorinated ethylenes as the model
The universal microbial cometabolism provides us with an effective approach to remove man-made xenobiotics. However, the cometabolic bioremediation of toxic organic compounds has not been widely initiated due to the obscure underlying fundamentals in the studies or applications of microbial cometabolism. This review summarizes the current research trends in mechanistic understanding of ...

Redeveloping Brownfields case study
Challenge: A property owner sought the services of Antea Group to assist in the Brownfield redevelopment of a 17-acre former railroad depot located in a high-profile urban area. The extent and magnitude of known soil and groundwater impacts combined with the time required to remediate the site was a major obstacle to the successful sale and subsequent development of the site. Antea Group ...

Loveland Case Study (In SItu Gas Thermal Remediation (GTR™))
The Loveland Sinclair gasoline station was selected for In-Situ Thermal Remediation (ISTR) using Gas Thermal Remediation (GTR) technologies. The GTR remediation system was designed to target a treatment area of approximately 14,000 square feet and includes a treatment volume of approximately 3,100 cubic yards. Vadose and saturated zone impacts, including a thin layer of light non-aqueous phase ...

Fiction EHC fluid resistivity
Since the mid 1960's turbine hydraulic fluid systems have been using Fire Resistant Fluid (FRF) to control their turbine inlet valves. It is a known “FACT” that low fluid resistivity adversely affects the internal components of servo valves within the hydraulic fluid system. Root cause analysis studies conducted by numerous agencies have determined that acids, conductive water and ...

Pump-and-Treat Ground-Water Remediation - A Guide for Decision Makers and Practitioners
Pump-and-treat is one of the most widely used ground-water remediation technologies. Conventional pump-and-treat methods involve pumping contaminated water to the surface for treatment. This guide, however, uses the term pump and treat in a broad sense to include any system where withdrawal from or injection into ground water is part of a remediation strategy. Variations and enhancements of ...

Case study – benzene contamination retail gas station, Colorado
Introduction The scope of work for this site included an expansion of an existing soil venting system to remediate impacted soil and injection of a carbon-based petroleum degrading product to remediate long-term groundwater impacts. By using a combination of remediation technologies, including LT Environmental’s (LTE) TerraCert™ program, the overall goal of a cost effective cleanup ...

Presumptive Remedies
A presumptive remedy is a technology that EPA believes, based upon its past experience, generally will be the most appropriate remedy for a specified type of site. EPA is establishing presumptive remedies to accelerate site-specific analysis of remedies by focusing the feasibility study efforts. EPA expects that a presumptive remedy, when available, will be used for all CERCLA sites except under ...

First State-funded cleanup using electrical resistivity heating technology
The Remediation and Redevelopment Division (RRD) completed remediation at a former dry cleaning facility in the city of Owosso using electrical resistivity heating (ERH) technology. Electrical resistivity heating is an insitu electrical heating technology that uses electricity and applies it into the ground through electrodes. The resistance of the electricity traveling through the ground ...

Landfarm Remediation: The Ancient Art of Healing the Earth
For centuries, humans have used the land to grow crops, build homes, and extract resources. However, these activities have left behind a legacy of pollution and contamination that threatens the health of our planet and its inhabitants. In recent years, a new approach to healing the land has emerged, known as landfarm remediation. Landfarm remediation is a process of using natural ...

Thermally Enhanced Soil Vapor Extraction
Introduction Thermally enhanced SVE is a full-scale technology that uses electrical resistance/electromagnetic/fiber optic/radio frequency heating or hot-air/steam injection to increase the volatilization rate of semi-volatiles and facilitate extraction. Thermally enhanced SVE is normally a short- to medium-term technology. Electrical Resistance Heating Electrical resistance heating uses an ...
