1. 1. Haga Företagscenter - historical and preliminary technical investigation of a contaminated site in Anderstorp, Småland, Sweden

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Max Boestam; [2022-12-21]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The Haga Företagscenter site in Anderstorp, Sweden has a long industrial history, which include the extensive use of chlorinated solvents. Trichloroethene (TCE) was used in large quantities here but the release to the environment has not been previously investigated. READ MORE

3. 2. Modelling of Fluid Flow and Contaminant Transport in Fractured Rock : Case Study

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Ebba Pegestam; [2022]
   Keywords : Contaminant transport; Discrete Fracture Network; Geology; Geohydrology; Groundwater transport; Fracture; Drinking water; Contamination; Föroreningar; flödestransport; spricknätverk; geologi; geohydrologi; grundvattentransport; sprickor; dricksvatten;

   Abstract : Drinking water contamination is a big concern in Sweden and is commonly traced back to being waste from former manufacturing industrial sites. Pollutants in the topsoil can be remediated by several techniques, such as decontamination or excavation but the toxins already enclosed in the bedrock cannot be treated the same and is harder to track possible contaminant pathways.

4. 3. Evaluation of stimulated reductivedechlorination in situ of chlorinatedsolvents at a site in Huddinge : using principal component analysis, partialleast square regression and degradation

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Karin Ljungberg; [2018]
   Keywords : Reductive dechlorination; DNAPL; stimulated bioremediation; chlorinated solvents; Reduktiv deklorering; DNAPLS; stimulerad biologisk behandling; klorerade lösningsmedel;

   Abstract : The method of using stimulated reductive dechlorination when remediating sites contaminated with chlorinated solvents is not unusual, but not many studies have been done on the overall process outside of a controlled environment. In order to investigate the process, principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least square (PLS) regression was used to identify the most important parameters for the degradation of the chlorinated solvents.

5. 4. 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.

6. 5. The application of resistivity and IP-measurements as investigation tools at contaminated sites : a case study from Kv. Renen 13, Varberg, SW Sweden

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

   Author : Sofia Åkesson; [2015]
   Keywords : geophysics; resistivity; induced polarization; contaminated site; hydrogeology; trichloroethene; TCE; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : An old industry estate, Kv. Renen 13, is located in central Varberg, southwest Sweden, and is known from previous investigations as highly polluted. READ MORE
