Geo-Cleanse Completes Successful Pilot-Scale Treatment Program in Belgium

摘要

During site investigation activities at a former industrial drycleaner located in Flanders, Belgium, chlorinated volatile organic compound (CVOC) contamination, including tetrachloroethene (PCE) dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL), was discovered across an approximate 1-acre area. The CVOC source area is primarily located beneath the former drycleaner, which presents several challenges from a remediation standpoint including limited access and the presence of a concrete cap. Average depth to groundwater is 8 feet below ground surface (ft bgs), and the geology in the treatment area consists of silty sands with a confining clay layer at approximately 15 ft bgs.
