Former flare pit area overlying shallow fractured bedrock. Condensate (BTEX) contamination dissolved in groundwater covering 21,000 m2.
Conduct detailed geological/hydrogeological investigation to identify fracture pathways and contaminate transport.
In-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) program based on 15 meter injection radius of influence. Establish health and safety protocol and site logistics for handling oxidizer.
Installed 90 injection wells, and injected over 100,000 litres of blended 17% 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.
An in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) remediation was conducted at a residential property in North Vancouver to address petroleum hydrocarbons (LEPH), phenanthrene, and pyrene contamination in 200 m³ of impacted soil and groundwater following a heating oil UST leak that migrated under the building foundation, causing vapour intrusion and free product in property sumps. A 2.5-meter injection radius was used for targeted treatments within the basement and exterior property foundation, utilizing directional injections and drive-points to reach both saturated and unsaturated zones. TRIUM leveraged the property’s sump system to artificially raise the groundwater level, creating a fully saturated treatment zone. Over seven days, 24 basement injections and 3 exterior injections delivered 20,104 litres of sodium persulfate, blended using TRIUM’s TriOx process with specialized activation products. The treatment successfully met regulatory soil, groundwater, and vapour guidelines, required only six weeks for completion, and allowed the property owner to safely return home with minimal disturbance.
