TRACE-METAL MOBILITY DURING IN SITU CHEMICAL OXIDATION (ISCO) OF TCE BY MnO4: COLUMN EXPERIMENTS
نویسنده
چکیده
Two series of column experiments were designed to investigate the mobility of trace metals during ISCO of TCE by MnO4 in the presence of MnOx and Fe oxyhydroxides. Results indicated that despite variable pH, concentrations of Mo, Pb, Cu, Cd and Ni are rapidly attenuated from the aqueous phase. In contrast, Zn concentrations were not significantly attenuated, except in the presence of Fe oxyhydroxides, and Cr behaved conservatively under all conditions. The results of extractions and Analytical Electron Microscopy (AEM) analyses indicated that the trace metals are associated with the precipitates formed during ISCO. RÉSUMÉ Deux series d’ expérimentations ont été crées pour investiguer la mobilité des métaux en traces pendent la oxidation chimique in situ de trichloroéthylène (TCE) par le permanganate de potassium (MnO4) en presence d’oxyhydroxydes de MnOx et Fe oxyhydroxides. Les résultats ont indiqué que malgré une variation de pH, les concentrations de Mo, Pb, Cu, Cd et Ni se sont atténués rapidement de la phase aqueuse. Contrairement, les concentrations de Zn ne sont pas atténués significativement, sauf en presence d’oxyhydroxydes de Fe. Le Cr a agit de facon conservateur sous toutes les conditions. Les resultats de les extractions et de la exoscopie analytique ont indiqué que les métaux en traces sont associés avec les précipités qui ont été formés pendent l’ oxidation chimique in situ.

Role of diffusion in chemical oxidation of PCE in a dual permeability system.
The effect of in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) with permanganate (MnO4-) on tetrachloroethene (PCE) in a dual permeability system consisting of low permeability clay with high permeability sand lenses was investigated by two-dimensional laboratory experiments. The experiments imitate a field remediation at a former dry cleaning facility in Denmark. Results from laboratory experiments and field...
متن کاملOxidation of Nonaqueous Phase Trichloroethylene with Permanganate in Epikarst
In situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) is one of the effective technologies used for source zone remediation of dense nonaqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs) such as chlorinated solvents in the subsurface environments. In karst systems, DNAPL source zones reside in epikarst where the contaminant is generally trapped in the soil or at the carbonate bedrock contact. The efficiency of oxidation of residual t...
متن کاملOxidation of volatile organic vapours in air by solid potassium permanganate.
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) may frequently contaminate groundwater and pose threat to human health when migrating into the unsaturated soil zone and upward to the indoor air. The kinetic of chemical oxidation has been investigated widely for dissolved VOCs in the saturated zone. But, so far there have been few studies on the use of in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) of vapour phase contami...
متن کاملImproving the sweeping efficiency of permanganate into low permeable zones to treat TCE: experimental results and model development.
The residual buildup and treatment of dissolved contaminants in low permeable zones (LPZs) is a particularly challenging issue for injection-based remedial treatments. Our objective was to improve the sweeping efficiency of permanganate into LPZs to treat dissolved-phase TCE. This was accomplished by conducting transport experiments that quantified the ability of xanthan-MnO4(-) solutions to pe...
متن کاملEvaluation of reverse osmosis and nanofiltration for in situ persulfate remediated groundwater
Sodium persulfate is a common oxidant used for in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) remediation of ground water contaminants (e.g., trichloroethylene (TCE)). Following ISCO unused persulfate and oxidation by-products such as sulfates remain within the groundwater at elevated levels. In this laboratory study the performance of three membranes: one nanofiltration (NF) membrane (designated DK) and tw...
