Natural Attenuation of Chlorinated Solvents Performance and Cost Results from Multiple Air Force Demonstration Sites, Technology Demonstration Slide Presentation

Abstract

This slide presentation summarizes the results of natural attenuation treatability studies at 14 Air Force sites contaminated with chlorinated solvents and their associated biodegradation daughter products (chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons CAHs) or a mixture of solvents and other contaminants (principally fuels). The main emphasis of the work described in this report was to evaluate the potential for naturally occurring degradation mechanisms to reduce the concentrations of CAHs dissolved in groundwater to levels that are protective of human health and the environment, and to limit the migration of CAH plumes in groundwater.
