Former helicopter fuel storage area overlying saturated shallow sands. Fuel (BTEX) contamination within the soil and dissolved in groundwater. Due to shallow groundwater, depths of impacts, and coarse-grained lithology, a winter injection program was developed.
Conducted a pilot test at the Site prior to full scale to ensure adequate distribution and determine the most appropriate radius of influence (ROI). Full scale in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) program was then conducted based on a 5 meter injection radius of influence. Establish health and safety protocol and site logistics for handling oxidizer.
Installed 42 injection wells and injected 60,000 litres of blended 15% EHP (enhanced hydrogen peroxide) oxidant. Blending is site specific following TRIUM’s ChemOx® process.
A closure-based in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) remediation was conducted at a former gas station in Southern Alberta to address BTEX, F1, F2, and PAH contamination in 6,630 m³ of impacted soil, bedrock, and groundwater, including off-site impacts beneath residential properties. Due to infrastructure constraints and vapour risks, a Remediation Train® approach was implemented, starting with a soil vapour extraction (SVE) and air sparge system, followed by a ISCO program with a 3-meter injection radius. Nested injection wells targeted various depth intervals, with careful scheduling around residential activity. Over 45 days, 1.6 million liters of 10% EHP (enhanced hydrogen peroxide) was injected using TRIUM’s ChemOx® process, achieving daily blend volumes of >35,000 L. The treatment successfully met regulatory groundwater quality guidelines, managed vapour risks, and was recognized as an industry-leading process by consultants, with no negative impact on the community.
