PRB Treatment for Contaminated Groundwater

摘要

The Permeable Reactive Barrier (PRB) concept for treating contaminated ground water in situ is a lexicon in the area of ground water remediation. Using chiefly natural materials, PRB has developed a track record for being among the most sustainable and effective groundwater remediation methods since its formal introduction at a pilot test site in the early 1990s. Implementing these treatment materials within a hydraulically passive to semi-passive in situ treatment zone, PRB is consistent with a growing demand to use "green" or sustainable approaches.
