Down The Memory Lane 20 Years Ago: Case Study 10

Application of VaporRemed at a Residential Spill in Virginia

VDEQ Pollution Complaint No. PC 2003-3187 Corrective Plan

Laboratory analysis of soil samples showed high values of TPH/DRO showing an initial value of 18,800 and 8,300 ppm and the samples of soil analyzed after treatment with VaporRemed showed a value of 290 ppm and 210 ppm. Both these values are below the stipulated 500 ppm of TPH/DRO. After flushing with the product, the TPH in the drain water showed values below the detection levels. The project was recommended for closure as No Further Action was...

Down the Memory Lane: Case Study 9

VaporRemed was used to treat more than 200 gallons of home heating oil spilled in a garage in Virginia. The environment company treated it with VaporRemed and measured the odor with a Photo Ionization Detection (PID) meter. Carbon dioxide levels were also determined simultaneously in the injection wells to determine the activity of the bacteria in VaporRemed. It was seen that VaporRemed reduved the odor at the rate of at least 15% per everyday.
