Navy Report Documents Feroxsm Success at Hunters Point Naval Yard
As mentioned in our last newsletter (http://www.ifracture.net/vol5iss3/index.html), ARS conducted an expanded treatment in a TCE-contaminated area within Hunters Point Shipyard in 2004 after a successful technology demonstration in 2001. Recently a technical report was produced for the Navy reporting results of our work at Hunters Point Shipyard. The title of the report:
Cost and Performance Report: Nanoscale Zero-Valent Iron Technologies for Source Remediation
A. Gavaskar, L. Tatar, and W. Condit.
Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center, Port Hueneme, CA. CR-05-007-ENV, 54 pp, 2005.
Key cost and performance report is the result of a comparative evaluation of the performance of zero-valent iron injections at three Navy sites: Hunters Point Shipyard (micron-scale particles), Naval Air Station Jacksonville and Naval Air Engineering Station Lakehurst (nanoscale particles).
