Third-party research article: In situ treatment of TCE and PFAS in groundwater within a silty sand aquifer near Shanghai, China

Authored by Rick McGregor, President, InSitu Remediation Services Ltd

This article published in Wiley’s Remediation Journal reviews a case study of in-situ treatment of TCE and PFAS in groundwater at an industrial site within a silty sand aquifer. Using a combination of adsorption, biotic, and abiotic degradation in-situ remedial approaches, the chemicals of concern were targeted for removal from the groundwater with adsorption being utilized for PFAS whereas adsorption, chemical reduction, and anaerobic biodegradation were used for the chlorinated ethenes.
