This book was released on 1995 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work plan, prepared by Parsons Engineering Science, Inc. (Parsons ES), formerly Engineering-Science, Inc. (ES), presents the scope of work required for the collection of data necessary to develop a treatability study (TS). The TS will address remediation of ground water contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons at Sites OT-1 and SS-42 (near Building 5009) at Wurtsmith Air Force Base (Base), in Oscoda, Michigan. This work plan is oriented toward the collection of hydrogeologic and chemical data that will be used to document the occurrence of intrinsic remediation of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (BTEX) dissolved in ground water. Intrinsic remediation is a risk management strategy that relies on natural attenuation to control the risks associated with exposure to contaminants in the subsurface. However, data collected under this program will also allow for the evaluation of several remedial options, such as free product removal; bioventing for source removal; air sparging; and intrinsic remediation with long-term monitoring (LTM). This work plan was developed based on discussions among representatives from the Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence (AFCEE) Technology Transfer Division, Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), Wurtsmith AFB, and Parsons ES at a meeting at the Base on August 24, 1994.

Several groundwater remedial options will be evaluated as a part of the TS report, including: bioslurping; groundwater extraction, treatment, and disposal (i.e., pump and treat); biosparging; and natural contaminant attenuation (intrinsic remediation) with long-term monitoring. Hydrogeologic and groundwater chemical data necessary to evaluate the various remedial options will be collected under this program; however, this work plan is oriented toward the collection of hydrogeologic data to be used as input into groundwater flow and solute transport models in support of intrinsic remediation for restoration of groundwater contaminated with benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX). As used in this report, the term "intrinsic remediation" refers to a management strategy that relies on natural attenuation mechanisms to remediate contaminants dissolved in groundwater and to control receptor exposure risks associated with contaminants in the subsurface. "Natural attenuation" refers to the actual physical, chemical, and biological processes that facilitate intrinsic remediation. Mechanisms for natural attenuation of BTEX include advection, dispersion, dilution from recharge, sorption, volatilization, and biodegradation. Of these processes, biodegradation is the only mechanism working to transform contaminants into innocuous byproducts. Intrinsic bioremediation occurs when indigenous microorganisms work to bring about a reduction in the total mass of contamination in the subsurface without the addition of nutrients.

(Parsons ES), formerly Engineering-Science, Inc. (ES), presents the scope of work required for the collection of data necessary to conduct a treatability study (TS) for remediation of groundwater contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons at Building 1212 located at Fairchild Air Force Base (AFB), 12 miles west of Spokane, Washington (the Base). Hydrogeological and groundwater chemical data collected under this program can be used to evaluate various remedial options; however, this work plan is oriented toward the collection of hydrogeological data to be used as input into groundwater flow and solute transport models in support of remediation by natural attenuation (RNA) with long-term monitoring (LTM) for restoration of groundwater contaminated with benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX). As used in this report, RNA refers to a management strategy that relies on natural attenuation mechanisms to remediate contaminants dissolved in groundwater and to control receptor exposure risks associated with contaminants in the subsurface. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) Office of Research and Development (ORD) and Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER) define natural attenuation as: The biodegradation, dispersion, sorption, volatilization, and/or chemical and biochemical stabilization of contaminants to effectively reduce contaminant toxicity, mobility, or volume to levels that are protective of human health and the ecosystem. As suggested by this definition, mechanisms for natural attenuation of BTEX include advection, dispersion, dilution from recharge, sorption, volatilization, and biodegradation. Of these processes, biodegradation is the only mechanism working to transform contaminants into innocuous byproducts.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intrinsic remediation is an innovative remedial approach that relies on natural attenuation to remediate contaminants dissolved in groundwater. Mechanisms for natural attenuation of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (BTEX) include biodegradation, advection, dispersion, dilution froin recharge, sorption, and volatilization. Of these processes, biodegradation is the only mechanism working to transform contaminants into innocuous byproducts. Intrinsic bioremediation occurs when indigenous microorganisms work to bring about a reduction in the total mass of contamination in the subsurface without the addition of nutrients. Patterns and rates of intrinsic remediation can vary markedly from site to site depending on governing physical and chemical processes. The main emphasis of the work described herein was to evaluate if natural attenuation mechanisms would be sufficient to reduce concentrations of dissolved fuel- related compounds in groundwater to levels that meet federal and state groundwater protection standards. The potential for these mechanisms to effectively reduce the concentrations of chlorinated solvents at the site, which is ancillary to the scope of this program, also was qualitatively considered. This study is not intended to be contaminant assessment report, a remedial action options evaluation, or a remedial action plan; rather, it is provided for the use of the Base and its prime environmental contractor(s) as information to be used for future decision making regarding this site.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results of an intrinsic remediation treatability study (TS) performed by Parsons Engineering Science, Inc. (Parsons ES) at Site OT 24, MacDill Air Force Base (AFB, the Base), Tampa, Florida to evaluate the use of intrinsic remediation (natural attenuation) with long-term monitoring (LTM) as a remedial option for dissolved benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (BTEX) contamination in the shallow saturated zone. Soil and groundwater contamination is documented for the site, with contamination being present in the aqueous (i.e., dissolved) and gaseous phases and as residual light nonaqueous-phase liquid (LNAPL) within the aquifer matrix. The presence of mobile LNAPL (free product) in the immediate vicinity of the contamination source area is also indicated at this site. This study focused on the impact of dissolved BTEX on the shallow groundwater system at and downgradient from the site. The impact of dissolved chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs) such as vinyl chloride on the shallow groundwater system is also discussed. Site history and the results of soil, groundwater, and sediment investigations conducted previously are summarized in this report.

Download or read book Natural Attenuation written by Patrick V. Brady and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1997-09-24 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural Attenuation: CERCLA, RBCAs, and the Future of Environmental Remediation presents the concept of "natural attenuation"-the tendency of soils to severly limit the toxicity of many types of hazardous waste. It reviews and updates the most recent findings from the field and lab and shows how natural attenuation is rapidly changing the direction and focus of environmental remediation. Outlining the legal and regulatory framework that has made waste remediation so costly, this book shows how applying an understanding of natural attenuation can decrease cleanup outlays while lowering risks to human health. Natural Attenuation: CERCLA, RBCAs, and the Future of Environmental Remediation makes it clear why natural attenuation will be relied upon more and more in the future.

Download or read book Natural Attenuation for Groundwater Remediation written by Commission on Geosciences, Environment, and Resources and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-08-31 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade, officials responsible for clean-up of contaminated groundwater have increasingly turned to natural attenuation-essentially allowing naturally occurring processes to reduce the toxic potential of contaminants-versus engineered solutions. This saves both money and headaches. To the people in surrounding communities, though, it can appear that clean-up officials are simply walking away from contaminated sites. When is natural attenuation the appropriate approach to a clean-up? This book presents the consensus of a diverse committee, informed by the views of researchers, regulators, and community activists. The committee reviews the likely effectiveness of natural attenuation with different classes of contaminants-and describes how to evaluate the "footprints" of natural attenuation at a site to determine whether natural processes will provide adequate clean-up. Included are recommendations for regulatory change. The committee emphasizes the importance of the public's belief and attitudes toward remediation and provides guidance on involving community stakeholders throughout the clean-up process. The book explores how contamination occurs, explaining concepts and terms, and includes case studies from the Hanford nuclear site, military bases, as well as other sites. It provides historical background and important data on clean-up processes and goes on to offer critical reviews of 14 published protocols for evaluating natural attenuation.
