Title

  • Chemical Oxidation Guidance Leaking Underground Storage Tank Program: Use of In-Situ Chemical Oxidant Compound Injection

Description

  • In-situ chemical oxidation involves the introduction of a chemical oxidant into the subsurface for the purpose of transforming contaminants in groundwater or soil into less harmful species. With sufficient contact time, oxidants are capable of converting petroleum hydrocarbons (fuels, solvents, and pesticides) into carbon dioxide and water. In many cases, chemical oxidation is chosen when bioremediation is not effective due to limited microbial growth, contaminant characteristics, or site conditions.
