APPLICATION OF FULL SCALE IN SITU OZONATION TO DEGRADE RECALCITRANT PAH COMPOUNDS AT A FORMER MGP SITE

摘要

This paper discusses an innovative strategy for remediating soil and groundwater at the former Long Beach II Manufactured Gas Plant (MGP) site in Long Beach, California. The MGP was owned and operated by Southern California Edison (SCE). The California Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Toxic Substances Control (CAL EPA/DTSC) selected this site as a pilot project in the state's Expedited Remedial Action Program, which was established by California's legislature to test regulatory policies for the remediation of contaminated properties. SCE has worked closely with CAL EPA/DTSC since 1994 to characterize and remediate this site.
