Abstract: | A permeable reaction wall consisting of a porous medium containing an iron-based catalyst that degrades halogenated organic compounds as they pass through it is being pilot tested at the Canadian Forces Base, Borden site. Monitoring results indicate TCE concentration has been reduced by 95% and PCE by 91%. This paper briefly describes the wall's installation. |
Title: | Long-Term Performance of an In Situ 'Iron Wall' for Remediation of VOCs |

Abstract: | The first field demonstration of granular iron used for in situ degradation of dissolved chlorinated organic compounds took place at Canadian Forces Base, Borden, Ontario. A mixture of 22% granular iron and 78% sand was installed in a continuous trench across the path of a contaminated plume. Of the two major contaminants, approximately 90% of the trichloroethene (TCE) and 86% of the tetrachloroethene (PCE) was removed by reductive dechlorination, with no measurable decrease in performance over five years. If a more reactive iron material or a higher percentage of iron had been used, complete removal of the chlorinated compounds might have been achieved. Trace amounts of precipitate detected in core samples collected four years after wall installation suggest that the barrier should perform for at least another five years. |

Abstract: | At Canadian Forces Base Borden, a pilot-scale demonstration to evaluate the performance of previously developed technologies combined in sequence for in situ remediation of ground-water plumes containing a mixture of contaminants has been in progress since October 1996. A plume containing BTEX, toluene, carbon tetrachloride, and PCE flows through a series of three treatment gates. Gate one holds four removable cassettes of treatment media: 1) zero-valent iron filings and sand; 2) iron filings; 3) sand and crushed limestone; and 4) oxygen release compound (ORC), respectively. Gate two is a control gate, and gate three uses nutrient flush and oxygen sparging systems to test anaerobic and aerobic biodegradation in sequence. |

Abstract: | The Advanced Applied Technology Demonstration Facility (AATDF) has funded a controlled field experiment at Canadian Forces Base Borden to assess the efficacy of combined passive, in situ remedial technologies to treat mixed chlorinated solvents and aromatics in ground water. The system involves a series of three treatment gates. Gate one holds four removable cassettes of treatment media: 1) zero-valent iron filings and sand; 2) iron filings; 3) sand and crushed limestone; and 4) oxygen release compound (ORC), respectively. Gate two is a control gate, and gate three uses nutrient flush and oxygen sparging systems to test anaerobic and aerobic biodegradation in sequence. |
