Download or read book Multi Phase Extraction State of the Practice written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EPA has estimated that more than 200,000 sites remain to be remediated in the United States, including Superfund, RCRA Corrective Action, Underground Storage Tank, Department of Defense (DoD), Department of Energy (DOE), civilian federal agency, and state sites. About 70 percent of Superfund, RCRA, DoD, and DOE sites have contaminated soil or groundwater, or both (EPA, 1997a). Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including chlorinated solvents, are a frequently-occurring type of contaminant at these sites. This report provides an overview of the state-of-the-practice for multi-phase extraction (MPE). MPE involves simultaneous extraction of soil vapor and groundwater to remediate both types of contaminated media. MPE has seen an increase in use at Superfund and other sites for cleanup of soil and groundwater impacted with halogenated VOCs, and also has been used frequently for cleanup of petroleum-hydrocarbon sites. This report focuses primarily on the applicability and use of MPE at sites with halogenated VOCs. Section 2 of this report provides a description of MPE technology, including the various configurations used for this technology. Section 3 describes the types of site conditions to which MPE would be applicable, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of using MPE at these types of sites. Section 4 summarizes information about attributes of MPE vendors and examples of sites where these vendors have applied their technologies. Information about these vendors was obtained from EPA REACH IT, an extensive database of information about characterization and treatment technologies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive overview of remediation and rehabilitation techniques and strategies for contaminated and anthropogenically disturbed land. Rehabilitation approaches in the urban environment, such as brownfield redevelopment and urban mining, are discussed. In relation to contaminated land, techniques for soil containment and decontamination of soil, soil vapour and groundwater are comprehensively and systematically presented. Complicated treatment techniques are schematically depicted and can be readily understood. Agricultural, silvicultural and environmentally sustainable rehabilitation strategies for reclaiming disturbed land/terrain in former mining or natural-resource extraction areas, such as open-cast mines, quarries, harvested peatlands, and subsided mining terrain (sinkholes), are introduced. This book will be a useful tool for students, researchers, private consultants and public authorities engaged in the treatment of contaminated or disturbed land.

Download or read book Remediation of Petroleum Contaminated Soils written by Eve Riser-Roberts and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-11-25 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book combines the results of current research with essential background material to provide complete, in-depth coverage of every aspect of in situ and ex situ bioremediation, as well as an extensive overview of the physical and chemical processes currently available for treating petroleum-contaminated soils. Critical information has been collected and assembled under one cover to provide a convenient reference for anyone who must contend with this worldwide problem. Remediation of Petroleum Contaminated Soils: Biological, Physical, and Chemical Processes describes how to optimize the biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in soil-water systems. It reports on the susceptibility of various petroleum components to biodegradation by microorganisms, and considers all groups of microorganisms for their potential contributions. The book also deals with problem areas such as the transport of organisms, oxygen, or nutrients throughout the subsurface, as well as biodegradation of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPLs). In addition, the book presents a variety of methods for monitoring bioremediation. This reference discusses current soil remediation processes and includes many innovative approaches. It also investigates means of controlling volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and leachate, and addresses methods for collecting and treating these secondary waste streams. The expansive coverage of this book will furnish readers with a wide range of options for developing treatment strategies and for customizing procedures for specific requirements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition discusses chemical and engineering principles as they apply to the cleanup and removal of hazardous chemicals from soil and groundwater. There is emphasis on environmental chemistry, soil science, microbiology, and plant science. The first part of the book provides an overview of the recent history of environmental contamination and the formulation of relevant regulations for hazardous waste site remediation. This part also provides a background for several salient aspects of site remediation (e.g., soil science, the site assessment process). The second part of the book examines field remediation technologies, including phytoremediation, bioremediation, and several chemical and physical technologies. Theory of operation, practical considerations, and possible environmental impacts and other consequences of their use are discussed. Covers both metal- and hydrocarbon-based contamination and remediation Many competitors only address one industry, or source, of contamination—this title provides an overview of all of the sources. Presents both the assessment of contaminated sites and the technologies currently available for environmental cleanup Effective for use in field situations and for academic (i.e., university course) use. Two new chapters: (i) the use of nanomaterials for remediation of contaminated soil and water; and (ii) revegetation of severely disturbed sites.
Download or read book Electrochemically Assisted Remediation of Contaminated Soils written by M. A. Rodrigo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the current development status of remediation technologies involving electrochemical processes, which are used to clean up soils that are contaminated with different types of contaminants (organics, inorganics, metalloids and radioactive). Written by internationally recognized experts, it comprises 21 chapters describing the characteristics and theoretical foundations of various electrochemical applications of soil remediation. The book’s opening section discusses the fundamental properties and characteristics of the soil, which are essential to understand the processes that can most effectively remove organic and inorganic compounds. This part also focuses on the primary processes that contribute to the application of electrochemically assisted remediation, hydrodynamic aspects and kinetics of contaminants in the soil. It also reviews the techniques that have been developed for the treatment of contaminated soils using electrochemistry, and discusses different strategies used to enhance performance, the type of electrode and electrolyte, and the most important operating conditions. In turn, the book’s second part deals with practical applications of technologies related to the separation of pollutants from soil. Special emphasis is given to the characteristics of these technologies regarding transport of the contaminants and soil toxicity after treatment. The third part is dedicated to new technologies, including electrokinetic remediation and hybrid approaches, for the treatment of emerging contaminants by ex-situ and in-situ production of strong oxidant species used for soil remediation. It also discusses pre-pilot scale for soil treatment and the use of solar photovoltaic panels as an energy source for powering electrochemical systems, which can reduce both the investment and maintenance costs of electrochemically assisted processes.
