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.
A risk-based in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) remediation is ongoing at an urban mall parking lot in Southern Alberta to address a large copper plume in 1,000 m³ of impacted groundwater, with a freshwater receptor located down-gradient. Due to infrastructure constraints, a 5-meter radius injection program using hydrogen peroxide was implemented to catalyze a sequestration reaction and precipitate dissolved copper, forming a permeable reactive barrier to prevent further migration. Over two months, 1 million liters of blended hydrogen peroxide and reagents were injected using TRIUM’s ChemOx® process, ensuring long-term effectiveness with a reactive barrier lasting approximately five years. The remediation has been effective at both the source zone and down-gradient areas, with ongoing injections near the water receptor, achieving results without disrupting shopping center operations.
