Using Electrical Resistivity Imaging to Evaluate Permanganate Performance During an In Situ Treatment of a RDX-Contaminated Aquifer

Abstract

This project dovetails with an EPA-funded project (Field scale Demonstrations of Innovative Remediation Technologies for Contaminated Soil and Water, S. D. Comfort, granted 2005) designed to assess the efficacy of in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) using permanganate to remediate RDX contamination. The ESTCP-funded project was undertaken in a cooperative, combined effort to demonstrate the utility of electrical resistivity imaging (ERI) as a geophysical tool to characterize the effects of the ISCO remediation effort. This cost report focuses primarily, but not exclusively, on the ESTCP-funded ERI demonstration (i.e., Costs of ERI).
