In Situ Product Transportation

Enhanced in situ bioremediation involves the delivery of organic substrates into the subsurface to stimulate anaerobic degradation of contaminants in groundwater. Delivering these substrates is an intricate dance to say the least. Insufficient loading rates or uneven delivery can result in areas where complete dechlorination fails to occur. Too much substrate causes fermentation reactions. In this class, you will learn about the technology and methods that can allow you to see successful remediation in a cost-effective and timely fashion.

Dr. Robert “Bob” Borden is the Principal Engineer at EOS Remediation, LLC and Professor Emeritus at North Carolina State University. He has over thirty years’ experience in the development and implementation of technologies for in situ remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater. Bob has developed technologies for in situ bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbons, chlorinated solvents, explosives and propellants, and 1,4-dioxane. With his students, he developed the use of emulsified vegetable oil (EVO) as a slow-release, sustainable technology for in situ bioremediation.
