Highlighting Min-Traps: Revolutionizing Monitoring to Document Abiotic Degradation

BlogBy Marshall Ware November 7, 2023

Highlighting Min-Traps: Revolutionizing Monitoring to Document Abiotic Degradation The Min-Trap® sampler passively collects direct mineralogical data using existing monitoring wells. Many in-situ groundwater treatment technologies for chlorinated solvents, as well as many metals and other contaminants, rely upon the formation, dissolution, and/or transformation of target solid-phase minerals either to sequester or degrade groundwater contaminants. However, evaluation of…

In Situ Microcosms: MNA vs Enhanced Aerobic Bioremediation

UncategorizedBy Emily February 11, 2020

• The ISM study conducted at this site provided clear, actionable evidence that increasing the dissolved oxygen concentration at the site would stimulate hydrocarbon biodegradation. Further, this evidence was provided in a significantly more cost effective manner than a bench-scale treatability study or a pilot scale study and in a more timely manner.

• A site impacted by chlorobenzene was managed by MNA.

• The ISM study provided answers to site managers’ questions at a significant cost savings compared to pilot-scale studies and provided sound support for a pathway to reducing time to closure at the site.

ISMs: Cost Effective Remedy Selection at a TCE Impacted Site

UncategorizedBy Emily November 21, 2019

• The ISM study conducted at this site provided clear, actionable evidence that electron donor injection would stimulate reductive dechlorination without the need for expensive bioaugmentation. Further, this evidence was provided in a significantly more cost effective manner than a bench-scale treatability study or a pilot scale study and in a more timely manner.
