  1. 1. Interpretation of geophysical and geochemical data in a 3D geological model construction of a contaminated site

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Haoyu Wei; [2018]
    Keywords : Halogenated hydrocarbon; Geophysics; DCIP; GeoScene3D; Groundwater chemistry; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The Alingsås dry-cleaning facility is one of the heavily halogenated hydrocarbon contaminated sites in Sweden. The source of contamination dates back to the 1970s when a large scale tetrachloroethylene leakage outbroke inside the dry-cleaning building. READ MORE

  3. 2. Multidisciplinary perspectives on a natural attenuation zone in a PCE-contaminated aquifer

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Robin Jansson; [2018]
    Keywords : DCIP; groundwater chemistry; Tetrachlorethene; PCE; natural attenuation; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The old dry-cleaner in Hagfors, is one of the most seriously tetrachloroethene (PCE) contaminated sites in Sweden. Ever since the pollution was discovered in the groundwater in the 1990s, the site has undergone remedi-ation two times with limited success. READ MORE

  4. 3. Application of ERT and IP for localisation of chlorinated hydrocarbons at a former dry-cleaning facility

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Hedda Jönsson; Anna Wiberg; [2017]
    Keywords : Chlorinated hydrocarbons; PCE; Hagforstvätten; Geophysics; Resistivity; Chargeability; Geological features; Man-made structures; Technology and Engineering; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : At Hagforstvätten a dry-cleaning facility operated 1970 – 1993 and leached huge amounts of tetrachloroethene (PCE) to soil and groundwater. This study was conducted at the contaminated site and focused on applying the geophysical methods Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) and Induced Polarization (IP) to investigate if it was possible to locate source zone, degradation zones and groundwater plumes of PCE.

  5. 4. Biodegradation of Aliphatic Chlorinated Hydrocarbon (PCE, TCE and DCE) in Contaminated Soil.

    University essay from Institutionen för tema

    Author : Aloysius Tibui; [2006]
    Keywords : Aerobic biodegradation; Anaerobic biodegradation; Inorganic fertilizers.; Chlorinated compounds; Tetrachloroethene PCE ; Trichloroethene TCE ; Dichloroethene DCE ; Mico-organisms; Methane; basis mineral medium; Gas Chromatography GC ;

    Abstract : Soil bottles and soil slurry experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of some additives on the aerobic and anaerobic biodegradation of chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons; tetrachloroethylene (PCE), trichloroethylene (TCE) and dichloroethylene (DCE) in a contaminated soil from Startvätten AB Linköping Sweden. For the aerobic degradation study the soil sample was divided into two groups, one was fertilised. READ MORE
