PetroFix Eliminates Hydrocarbon Plume Migration

Permeable reactive barrier installed in underground car park in Northern Italy

This case study explains the installation of a PetroFix permeable reactive barrier below a new office building in Northern Italy.

• The barrier has stopped the offsite migration of a petroleum hydrocarbon plume onto a public road and archeological site.

• The in situ remediation has met the stringent cleanup target, positioning the site for regulatory closure, despite the challenges posed by the restricted access onsite.
