In-situ Thermal Remediation Under an Apartment Building
This paper presents the implementation and results of ET-DSP, an in-situ electrical soil heating technology, in combination with high vacuum dual phase extraction, to achieve the removal of vapour pressure sensitive BTEX compounds from under an occupied residential apartment building. Operating within several engineering, environmental, and safety constraints, a design was developed in order to ...

Mississauga Case Study (In Situ Gas Thermal Remediation (GTR™))
In Situ Thermal Desorption in conjunction with soil vapor extraction was used to remove volatile organic compounds which contaminated the groundwater and saturated soil areas of a former metal fabricating facility in Ontario, Canada. The site had VOCs detected above the Canadian water standard in various monitoring well locations. The remediation goal was achieved in 84 days and saw a 98% ...

EPA Technology News & Trends - Tacoma “Well 12A” Superfund Site
The U.S. EPA Region 10 office uses an adaptive site management approach that relies on high-resolution site characterization (HRSC) techniques for strategic sampling at the Well 12A project area. This approximate one-square-mile project area is one of three at the 2.5-square-mile Commencement Bay-South Tacoma Channel Superfund site in Tacoma, Washington. The vicinity of Well 12A, one of 13 wells ...

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 ...

Good intentions may result in bad health
President Obama’s stimulus investments in home energy efficiency may have the unintended consequence of increasing future medical costs. The stimulus bill contains $1500 tax credits for homeowners who install energy efficient doors, windows, and/or insulation. Studies in both the United States and England have shown that these home upgrades can reduce air infiltration by 50% in older homes, and ...
