ISCO TREATMENT PROGRAM: VOCS

Location: Former Distribution Terminal, New Jersey
Contaminants: Methylene Chloride, BTEX, TCE, MTBE, TCA
Geology: Fractured bedrock.
Pilot Program: Modified Fenton’s Reagent (MFR). Two six (6) day injection events. Inflatable straddle packers utilized.
Introduction: The subject site is a former distribution terminal located in New Jersey. Past business activities at the site resulted in groundwater (GW) and bedrock contamination with related volatile organic compounds (VOCs)…

ISCR Treatment Program: Cr (VI) Reduction

Contaminants: Cr (VI) levels between 240‐1,770 mg/kg in site soils. Average Cr (VI) concentration in soils was
estimated to be 100 mg/kg for the design of the ISCR treatment program.
Geology: Site geology consists of fill material to a depth of approximately 5‐12 feet bgs consisting mostly of silty sands underlain by a 0.5‐3.0 feet thick organic peat layer encountered between 6‐12 feet bgs referred to as meadow mat. Depth to water is approximately 4 feet bgs. GW flow is to the west.

ISCO Treatment Program: MGP Related Impacts

Location: Former Manufacturing Gas Plant, Upstate, NY
Contaminants: VOCs/ SVOCs, PAHs, TPH‐GRO, TPH‐DRO, NAPL
Geology: Site geology consists of a very thin coarse gravel and fine sand layer located in between two confining layers of silty clay. Majority of remaining COCs were believed to be present within the thin gravel/sand layer.
Introduction: ISOTEC was retained to implement an In‐Situ Chemical Oxidation (ISCO) treatment program within the downgradient residual plume area of a former Manufactured Gas Plant (MGP) site utilizing…

ISCO Soil Mixing Program: Source Area Treatment

Location: Former Manufacturing Facility (Superfund Site); New Hampshire.
Contaminants: 1,1,1 Trichloroethane (TCA), 1,1 Dichlorethene (DCE). Geology/ Hydrology, Site geology consists of fine sand, underlain by two low permeability layers of clay and silt. Depth to water was approximately 6‐7 feet bgs. GW flow is to the southeast.
Introduction: ISOTEC, along with our teaming partner Lang Tool Company (LTC), were retained to implement an in‐situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) soil mixing treatment program utilizing Modified Fenton’s Reagent (MFR) at a Superfund Site in New Hampshire to address volatile organic compound (VOC) source area soils.
