In Situ Chemical Oxidation for Remediation of Contaminated Groundwater. Frequently Asked Questions

Abstract

This document contains a set of frequently asked questions (FAQ) along with short answers concerning the application of in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) for remediation of contaminated groundwater. This FAQ guide is designed to provide an overview of the principles and practices of in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) for remediation of groundwater. The intended audience includes DoD Remedial Project Managers (RPMs), but the document is also well suited for site owners/managers in general. Readers are assumed to have a general understanding of site characterization/assessment and remediation technology selection and applications (i.e., this FAQ guide is not intended for someone new to the field of contaminated sites and remediation). This FAQ guide was prepared as part of ESTCP Project ER-0623: In Situ Chemical Oxidation for Groundwater Remediation Technology Practices Manual . The goal of ER-0623 is to help advance the standard-of-practice of ISCO and enable more predictable, cost-effective application at DoD sites by providing knowledge and know-how within a comprehensive technology practices manual (TPM).
