Bioventing Test Work Plan and Interim Results Report for Four Bioventing Sites Hill Air Force Base, Utah

Abstract

This test work plan presents the scope of in situ bioventing pilot tests for treatment of fuel and solvent contaminated soils at four sites on Hill Air Force Base (AFB), Utah. The pilot tests have three primary objectives: 1) to assess the potential for supplying oxygen throughout the contaminated soil depth, 2) to determine the rate at which indigenous microorganisms will degrade fuel when stimulated by oxygen rich soil gas, and 3) to evaluate the potential for sustaining these rates of biodegradation until fuel contamination is remediated below regulatory standards. If bioventing proves to be feasible at these sites, pilot test data can be used to design a full-scale remediation system and to estimate the time required for site cleanup.
