Chemical Oxidation for Soil RestorationAt CD BioSciences, we understand the critical importance of restoring contaminated soils to their natural, healthy state. As a leading provider of environmental remediation services, we have honed our expertise in the field of chemical oxidation - a powerful technique that harnesses the power of reactive compounds to transform and eliminate a wide range of soil pollutants.
Chemical oxidation, also known as in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO), involves the strategic injection or mixing of powerful oxidizing agents directly into the affected soil and groundwater. These highly reactive compounds, such as hydrogen peroxide, potassium permanganate, and sodium persulfate, undergo chemical reactions that break down and destroy contaminants, converting them into less toxic and more benign substances like carbon dioxide and water.
The key to the success of our chemical oxidation approach lies in our deep understanding of the contaminant profiles, soil characteristics, and hydrogeological conditions present at each unique site. Our team of seasoned experts meticulously analyzes the site data, utilizing advanced analytical techniques like GC-MS, AAS, and XRF, to develop tailored ISCO treatment strategies that maximize the destruction of the target pollutants.
The versatility of chemical oxidation makes it a valuable tool in CD BioSciences' comprehensive toolkit for soil restoration services. We have successfully implemented ISCO programs to address a wide range of contaminants, including:
One of the key advantages of ISCO is its ability to effectively treat contamination in hard-to-access areas, such as beneath buildings or infrastructure. By directly injecting the oxidizing agents into the subsurface, our team can reach and neutralize pollutants that may have been previously inaccessible using other remediation methods.
Moreover, the chemical oxidation process can also contribute to the physical stabilization of the soil matrix, improving its geotechnical properties and suitability for various construction and infrastructure applications. This multi-faceted approach to soil restoration sets CD BioSciences apart as a comprehensive environmental solutions provider.
At CD BioSciences, we offer a comprehensive suite of chemical oxidation technologies to address the diverse range of soil contaminants encountered at various sites:
Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2)
Hydrogen peroxide is a versatile oxidizing agent that can effectively break down a wide variety of organic pollutants, including petroleum hydrocarbons, chlorinated solvents, and PAHs.
Potassium Permanganate (KMnO4)
Potassium permanganate is a powerful oxidizing compound that is particularly effective in treating chlorinated organic compounds, such as PCE and TCE, which are common groundwater contaminants.
Sodium Persulfate (Na2S2O8)
Sodium persulfate can generate highly reactive sulfate radicals, enabling it to oxidize a broad spectrum of organic contaminants, including BTEX and PAHs, often found in soil and groundwater.
Ozone (O3)
Ozone is a highly reactive gas that can effectively oxidize a wide range of organic contaminants, including PCBs and petroleum hydrocarbons, making it a valuable tool for comprehensive soil restoration.
Our team of experts at CD BioSciences carefully selects the most appropriate oxidizing agents and application methods based on the unique characteristics of each project, ensuring the most efficient and effective treatment outcomes for our clients.
