Multi-Phase Pilot Test Technology Evaluation Report

Abstract

This report presents the results of the TPE pilot test conducted at Ellsworth AFB in May 1996. It compares the pilot test results to PREECA's remedy profile for TPE and demonstrates that TPE is an effective technology for use at Ellsworth AFB. In addition, it presents data on additional objectives for the pilot test, which were to: (1) Demonstrate the contaminant removal effectiveness of the TPE technology; (2) Determine the feasibility of installing a full-scale system; (3) Collect sufficient engineering data to facilitate the design, installation, and operation of a full-scale extraction and treatment system; and (4) Assist in the prevention of contaminant migration, thereby minimizing the threat of exposure to human health and the environment.
