Assessment
of
the
Remediation
Alternatives
In
a
partnership
with
international
companies,
we
developed
a
feasibility
study
for
several
remediation
alternatives,
considering
each
alternative's
performance,
reliability,
ease
of
implementation,
occupational
safety,
costs,
operation
schedule,
and
monitoring.
Pilot
Test
Based
on
the
local
characteristics,
the
selected
alternative
was
butane
biostimulation.
Prior
to
the
implementation
of
the
full-scale
system,
a
pilot
test
is
being
conducted
to
assess
the
use
of
the
technique
for
the
specific
site
conditions,
with
promising
initial
results.
Following
StagesSteps
The
next
stages
consist
of
the
full-scale
implementation
of
the
butane
biostimulation
technology,
and
of
the
operation
and
monitoring
of
the
remediation
system.
The
schedule
anticipated
for
the
conclusion
closure
of
the
case,
with
the
reduction
in
the
contaminant
concentrations
to
acceptable
risk
levels,
is
between
1.5
and
2
2
years.
