Remediation System Design & Implementation Presented by
2
For the purpose of this presentation, remediation is assumed to be any mechanical means of removing or reducing petroleum hydrocarbon mass in the subsurface.
3
is a means to an end
4
is the process by which an NFA is achieved
5
is the “end” is No Further Action
6
Prerequisites for a comprehensive remedial system. Site Conceptual Model Feasibility Study Pilot Test Design and Construction
7
Critical to effective system design, installation and operation Minimum data package: Source area definition Geologic and groundwater framework Historic liquid level data Soil and groundwater concentration data; with vertical, horizontal and temporal coverage Boring logs and well diagrams Cross sections
8
Additional model data should include: Summary of receptors State regulatory compliance targets Risk-based clean up concentrations
9
Definition of remedial goals Set remedial technology target concentrations for: Source zone, with respect to horizontal and vertical profiles Down-gradient locations; i.e. property lines, water wells, other receptors
10
Define source area and required treatment zones
11
Minimum elements Survey all potentially applicable technologies Include preliminary cost comparisons over life-cycle Evaluate impact on site features Evaluate with respect to remedial goals
12
The purpose of a pilot test is to generate sufficient high-quality data around which to design an efficient remediation system.
13
Example Pilot Test Flow chart
14
System Design & Construction
15
Inspect system construction details prior to delivery
16
Logistics to complete include power drops
17
Subgrade infrastructure – extraction piping details
18
Subgrade infrastructure – should provide sufficient control for air flow liquid flow
19
Subgrade infrastructure – extraction wellhead assembly; adjustable drop-tube
20
Subgrade infrastructure – extraction wellhead assembly; adjustable drop-tube advantages
21
Site-Specific Issues Overhead Utilities System Enclosure Locations Site-specific application Infrastructure additions: Extraction wells Sparge points Observation points
22
Equipment break in Process “debugging”
23
Adjustments for site specific factors Post pilot test findings System balancing Flow rates: liquids, vapors, hydrocarbons
24
Vital Elements for Successful Remediation Effective performance Run Time Common causes of system shutdowns - Power outages Simple fix: add alarm callout routine to PLC after power is restored
25
Vital Elements for Successful Remediation Effective performance Run Time Common causes of system shutdowns – Sediment filters Simple fix: install additional filter housings
26
Vital Elements for Successful Remediation Effective performance Run Time Common causes of system shutdowns – Pump failure Simple fixes: add wye strainer (sediment filter) to pump inlet. Clean float control switches
27
Vital Elements for Successful Remediation Targeted application SCM Treatment zone Vertical extent of remediation Horizontal extent of remediation
28
Vital Elements for Successful Remediation Effective monitoring; timely & accurate Run Time Mass Removal ROI Quarterly Groundwater Sampling Results Confirmation Soil Sampling Results
