Scope
Optimal applications of in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO), emerging technologies and approaches, and research needed to enable increased applicability of ISCO and improved outcomes.
Key Concepts
-
ISCO is a viable technology for remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater, but the likelihood of effective application depends on favorable site conditions and contaminant characteristics as well as realistic ISCO treatment goals.
-
Among the numerous applications of ISCO to date, there are examples of what might be considered optimal applications as well as those deemed to be inappropriate or poorly implemented.
-
Emerging technologies and approaches include: combining ISCO with other remedies, enhanced delivery methods, and improved monitoring and assessment methods.
-
Specific research needs and areas for advancements are within ISCO process chemistry, reagent delivery, system design, and process control and assessment.
