From operational challenges to success: Remediating diffuse chlorinated solvent contamination at a waste management site

Webinar Highlights

Language: English

In this webinar recording, first broadcast 12/11/2025, guest speakers Christian Nielsen of Tauw and Alberto Cicognani of A2A Ambiente showcase the successful remediation of a large, complex site contaminated with a variety of chlorinated solvents, using a combined in situ approach.

Joined by Paola Goria of REGENESIS, they discuss the design implementation and validation of the complex remediation work across the 20,000m2 site at a waste treatment and management facility owned by A2A Ambiente.

Learn how collaboration, innovation, and adaptive fieldwork led to a successful outcome in a demanding remediation project!

What You’ll Learn:

  • Site Conceptual Model: Understanding the complex contamination profile and risk assessment.
  • Remedial Design: How from a successful pilot test Tauw informed a full-scale strategy using three in situ technologies from REGENESIS:
    • Enhanced Reductive Dechlorination (ERD)
    • In Situ Chemical Reduction (ISCR)
    • In Situ Sorption and Bioremediation (ISSB) with PlumeStop colloidal activated carbon
  • Details on operational execution and site specific challenges overcome, including:
    • Challenging geology
    • Integration with pump & treat system
    • Limited time frame
  • Results:
    • Two orders of magnitude reduction in contaminant concentrations
    • Compliance with stringent regulatory limits
    • Full-scale validation and monitoring success
