| Abstract: | The design, installation, and preliminary field results for a reactive barrier designed to treat Cr(VI), and trichloroethylene (TCE) and its degradation products dichloroethylene (DCE), and vinyl chloride (VC) are described in this paper. The reactive barrier is comprised entirely of zero-valent iron, in the form of iron filings. Iron filings have been shown to reduce aqueous Cr(VI) and degrade TCE, DCE, and VC. The reactive barrier was installed at a U.S. Coast Guard Support center, near Elizabeth City, NC, in June 1996. |
