In situ sanering van grondwater verontreinigd met PFAS – Internationale case studies

Oorspronkelijke uitzenddatum: 16 Juni 2020  | Taal: Nederlands | Kosten: Gratis

In deze webinar bespreekt Kris Maerten verscheidene case studies waarbij PlumeStop®, vloeibare (colloïdale) actieve kool, is gebruikt om grondwater verontreinigd met poly- en perfluoralkylstoffen (PFAS) succesvol in situ te saneren.

PFAS-verbindingen, waaronder PFOS en PFOA, zijn wijdverbreid in het milieu. Ze zijn persistent, toxisch, mobiel en bioaccumulerend; zozeer zelfs dat ze in verschillende landen zijn gereguleerd met grenswaarden voor het grondwater van minder dan 50 ng/L.

Momenteel wordt voor dit soort verontreiniging vaak een beheersmaatregel uitgevoerd door middel van Pump & Treat. Deze gebruiken veel energie en moeten doorgaans decennialang actief blijven. Bovendien is de verwerking van de gebruikte actieve kool moeilijk en duur.

De in situ  behandeling van het grondwater door middel van injectie met PlumeStop is een bewezen alternatief voor P&T. Deze oplossing beheerst op een passieve en duurzame manier het risico dat gepaard gaat met de PFAS-verbindingen in grondwater. Door de behandeling wordt de bodem als het ware ‘gecoat’ met een dun laagje colloïdale, actieve kool. Hierdoor onstaat een soort ondergrondse actieve koolfilter die snel de PFAS-verbindingen sorbeert. De doeltreffendheid van de behandeling is geïllustreerd door de presentatie van een vijftal pilootproeven en full-scale toepassingen: 2 in de VS, 1 in Canada, 1 in het Midden-Oosten en 1 in Zweden.

Traitement in-situ d’aquifères impactés par des PFAS – Cas d’études à travers le monde

Première diffusion: 23 Avril 2020
Langue: Français

Dans ce webinaire, Aurélien Triger, Représentant Technique France, a discuté de plusieurs études de cas de traitement in situ de PFAS durant lesquels PlumeStop® Charbon Actif Liquide TM a été utilisé pour traiter avec succès des contaminants poly et perfluoroalkyles (PFAS) dans les eaux souterraines.

Les composés PFAS, y compris le PFOS et le PFOA, sont répandus dans l’environnement, récalcitrants et bio-accumulatifs, à tel point que dans plusieurs pays ils ont été réglementés avec des valeurs limites pour les eaux souterraines inférieures à 50 ng / L. Traditionnellement, les aquifères impactés sont gérés avec des systèmes Pump & Treat (P&T) à haute intensité énergétique, qui nécessitent un fonctionnement actif pendant des décennies et avec des problèmes importants pour l’élimination des résidus de traitement.

L’injection in situ de charbon actif colloïdal PlumeStop est une alternative éprouvée au P&T. Cette solution gère de manière passive et durable le risque associé aux composés PFAS dans les eaux souterraines. Lors de l’injection, PlumeStop recouvre la matrice solide de l’aquifère de charbon actif colloïdal. De cette façon, une zone d’adsorption in situ perméable est créée dans le sous-sol. Elle élimine rapidement les contaminants PFAS présents dans la phase mobile dissoute.

L’efficacité du traitement sera illustrée au cours du webinaire à travers la présentation de tests pilotes et de projets à grande échelle à travers le monde entier, dans lesquels des applications individuelles de PlumeStop ont conduit à une diminution des concentrations dans les eaux souterraines en dessous des limites de détection.

La présentation comprend des données de:

  • Données d’un projet de réhabilitation sur un grand site Superfund (US)
  • Test pilote sur un site militaire (États-Unis)
  • Réhabilitation à grande échelle dans un ancien site industriel (Canada)
  • Traitement à grande échelle dans une installation de stockage en vrac (Moyen-Orient)
  • Projets récents et en cours (Europe)
