Title: | A Nickel-Iron Wall Against Contaminated Groundwater |
Author(s): | Appleton, E.L. |
Citation: | Environmental Science & Technology, 30:12, 536A-539A, 1996. |
Abstract: | This paper describes the planned installation of two permeable zero-valent iron walls or curtains in series within the plume downgradient from the CS-10 source area at the Massachusetts Military Reservation on Cape Cod. The zero-valent iron will enhance abiotic degradation of TCE and PCE. The two walls will be installed in series to guarantee the degradation of the PCE. The walls are to be fifty feet wide, begin 80 feet below the surface, and extend down to 150 feet. They will be installed using a vertical hydrofracture technique. [The treatment wall installation was delayed.] |

Abstract: | This paper examines methods to construct granular iron permeable reactive barriers at depths between 15 and 60 meters using the Otis CS-10 Source Area plume at the Massachusetts Military Reservation, Cape Cod, as the model site. In this case, hydrofracturing is estimated to be the most economical method of emplacing an iron slurry into a permeable reactive wall to treat chlorinated solvents contamination. |
