Environmental Remediation
Former Fuel Terminal Soil and Groundwater Treatment System Project
Location: North Carolina
Cost: $3.7 Million
BACK TO PROJECTS
Challenge:
The site was a former bulk fuel terminal that covered 9-acres
Estimated releases of 450,000-gallons of diesel/gasoline over the 25-year operating history
Results:
LWR provided turn-key construction, operation and maintenance activities
Performed site grading, installation of stormwater controls, and operation & maintenance of treatment system services on-site
Construction and installation of an Electrical Resistance Heating (ERH) thermal treatment system
Largest ERH remediation project ever constructed world wide
ERH treatment process includes installation of electrodes, recovery and sensor wells throughout the treatment zone
ERH thermal treatment utilized McMillan-McGee’s patented ET-DSPTM process to heat the groundwater and ground substrate
Site subdivided into 4 treatment areas (1.5-acres each) to maximize effectiveness and more efficient tracking of results
3-phase electrical power is applied to the subsurface electrodes and heat the soil and groundwater to 100
o
C for 5-6 months
Heated groundwater and liquid-phase petroleum hydrocarbons and recovered and treated on-site
Heated soil gas, steam, and gas-phase hydrocarbons are extracted via recovery wells, cooled, treated with thermal & catalytic oxidizers
Zone 1 was proven the most effective and removed 214,000-pounds of hydrocarbon that was sent for recycling
Benefits:
This project was recognized as one of the
National Groundwater Associations Outstanding Groundwater Remediation Projects
Recovered liquids were recycled as fuel and did not create additional waste and liability for the client
