Journal ArticleDOI
The application of in situ permeable reactive (zero-valent iron) barrier technology for the remediation of chromate-contaminated groundwater: a field test
TL;DR: A small-scale field test was initiated in September 1994 to evaluate the in situ remediation of groundwater contaminated with chromate using a permeable reactive barrier composed of a mixture of zero-valent Fe, sand and aquifer sediment as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chromium-removal processes during groundwater remediation by a zerovalent iron permeable reactive barrier.
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that secondary iron-bearing mineral products may enhance the capacity of zerovalent iron systems to remediate Cr in groundwater, either through redox reactions at the mineral-water interface or by the release of Fe(II) to solution via mineral dissolution and/or metal corrosion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transport and transformation of hexavalent chromium through soils and into ground water
TL;DR: A detailed characterization of the underlying and adjacent soils of a chrome plating shop was performed to provide information on the extent of soil and aquifer contamination at the site and on the potential for offsite migration and environmental impact as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-layer sampling in conventional monitoring wells for improved estimation of vertical contaminant distributions and mass
Robert W. Puls,Cynthia J. Paul +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare the performance of four different sampling approaches and devices, including electric submersible pumps and bailers, with conventional monitoring well data and a passive multi-layer sampling system (DMLS).
Journal ArticleDOI
Metals in Ground Water: Sampling Artifacts and Reproducibility
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated sampling procedures for determination of aqueous inorganic geochemistry and assessment of contaminant transport by colloidal mobility, and found that those sampling devices which caused the least disturbance (i.e. turbidity) also produced the most reproducible samples irrespective of filtration.
