Hydrocarbon Bioremediation

By: Battelle Memorial In,Robert E. Hinchee,R.N. Miller,R.E. Hoeppel

With oil spills occurring worldwide, much media and practical attention has been given in recent years to the rapidly maturing field of hydrocarbon bioremediation, particularly with application to marine spills. Hydrocarbon contamination of soil and groundwater, although less visible, is even more widespread and has provided the background for the numerous studies presented in this book, in addition to those devoted to shoreline spills. Chapters address a wide variety of theory and practice and cover important subjects such as biofiltration, natural attenuation, surfactants, and the use of in situ bioventing compared to soil venting. This unique book represents the collective global experience of practitioners and researchers in North America, Europe, Africa, and Asia. It describes experiences in tying laboratory studies to field applications. Nowhere else can anyone involved in hydrocarbon bioremediation find more up-to-date, relevant information on field experience using the various techniques and combinations of techniques in remediating hydrocarbons by biological means.

In Situ Thermal Technologies for Site Remediation

By: Robert E. Hinchee,Lawrence A. Smith

In Situ Thermal Technologies for Site Remediation is a comprehensive volume covering the state-of-the-art in the field. The book begins with a basic review of the thermodynamics of heat transfer and contaminant behavior in soils and is followed by summaries of data on various soil heating technologies. Technologies covered include steam injection, radio frequency (RF), Joule resistance, passive and active solar heating, and hot gas injection. For each technology, actual applications, costs, discussions of advantages and disadvantages, and a thorough literature review are provided. In Situ Thermal Technologies for Site Remediation can help engineers in selecting and implementing the appropriate technologies for specific situations. The book will assist managers in their review and evaluation of technologies. Regulators will gain a better understanding of the applicability of available technologies after reading this volume.

Soil Bioventing

Principles and Practice

By: Andrea Leeson,Robert E. Hinchee

Soil bioventing is one of the most popular modern techniques for removing contaminants from soil. It has recently emerged as one of the most cost-effective and efficient technologies available for vadose zone remediation of petroleum-contaminated sites. This book explains in practical terms how to carry out a bioventing program. It is an interdisciplinary treatment of the subject, covering everything from basic physical and chemical properties of soils to site evaluation, project design, and post-bioventing monitoring.The wide breadth of coverage makes Soil Bioventing useful to a large audience, including consulting firms, students, contractors, environmental managers, and anyone who is responsible for supervision of soil cleanup for regulatory reasons.
