- Rapidly reduced 2-PCl concentrations in a fractured bedrock aquifer, with no rebound observed during one year of monitoring.
- Successfully treated both source areas and downgradient plume migration pathways using PetroFix® in multiple pilot configurations.
- Validated PetroFix for full-scale remediation, providing the performance data needed to develop a cost-effective site-wide treatment strategy.
A former chemical manufacturing facility in Swords, Ireland, faced groundwater impacts from 2-chloropyridine (2-PCl), a pharmaceutical and specialty chemical intermediate. Following source area soil removal, residual contamination remained in the underlying fractured limestone aquifer, prompting evaluation of PetroFix as a long-term remediation solution.
