X-625 Groundwater Treament Facility: A Field-Scale Test of Trichloroethylene211 Dechlorination Using Iron Filings for the X-120/X-749 Groundwater Plume

摘要

Because of its successful application in the laboratory and other field sites,211u001ethe X-625 Groundwater Treatment Facility (GTF) was constructed to evaluate 211u001ereactive barrier technology for remediating trichloroethylene (TCE)-contaminated 211u001egroundwater at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PORTS). The X-625 GTF was 211u001ebuilt to fulfill the following technical objectives: (1) to test reactive barrier 211u001ematerials (e.g., iron filings) under realistic groundwater conditions for long 211u001eterm applications, (2) to obtain rates at which TCE degrades and to determine by-211u001eproducts for the reactive barrier materials tested, and (3) to clean up the TCE-211u001econtaminant water in the X-120 plume. This report describes start up and 211u001eoperating results through mid-August, 1996.
