In Situ Saneren zonder Equipment:Principes

In Situ saneren = processen in de bodem sturen

Processen => omzetting van verontreiniging

Omzetting: Biologisch of ChemischHulpstoffen nodig

Biologisch aeroob: zuurstof en nutrientenBiologisch anaeroob: substraat & nutrientenChemisch: agressieve stoffen / katalisatoren

In Situ Saneren zonder Equipment:Voorbeeld

Concreet voorbeeld: In Situ afbraak Per & Tri (ontvetters)Biologisch: anaeroob afbreekbaar, maar

eist speciale bacterienChemisch: snel afbreekbaar door reactie

EHC is a solid or liquid material that provides:

Controlled-release, hydrophilic carbon source

Micro-scale (5- 50 um) zero valent iron (ZVI) or other reduced metals (Zn, Al), at 5 to >40% weight

Direct Soil Mixing – PRB Applications

Roughly horizontal planes of EHC injected via hydro‐fracturing or pneumatic fracturing.

Biochemical zone of dechlorination created through dispersal of dissolved organic carbon and low redox.

EHC Subsurface Direct Injection Methods

Pressure Activated / Horizontal Injection Tips

Allows for either top‐down or bottom‐up injection and directs the slurry laterally into the subsurface. A key feature of this probe is that it acts as a backflow preventer, keeping injection material IN the ground and not ON the ground!

Reductive Degradation Pathways

• Biological pathway

• Redox down to ‐200 / ‐250 eV

• Risk of stagnation at dichloroethene & Vinyl Chloride

• Reductive Chemical Pathway: β‐elimination

• Two‐step proces:Anaerobic biodegradation to scavenge oxygen and produceenzymesplusZerovalent metals (Iron) reduce eH down to ‐500 eV

ISSUE

Tool & Dye factory, soil and groundwater contaminated by heavy metals and Chlorinated Hydrocarbons

Site in urban redevelopment area

• Development requires source & Plume zone Remediation

• GT requested to address deep & off-site plume

Solution Provider bij bodemsanering

Site Overview

Site

Solution Provider bij bodemsanering

SOLUTION

• Direct injection of a mixture of methanol, lactate and protamylasse leads to biodegradation of the Chlorinateds

• Low redox levels lead to sulphate reduction

• Sulphate reduces to Sulphite

• Sulphite & nickel bond to form NiS

• NiS has very low solubility => NiSprecipitates
