Abstract
Volatile organic compounds (trichloroethylene and tetrachloroethylene) were discovered in a shallow groundwater zone. A three-phase program was implemented to systematically address the problem. Principal sources and location of the contaminants were identified along with appropriate remedial action technology. A pilot air stripping column was installed to evaluate air stripping. A 50-gpm production unit is being built and will be followed by a 400-gpm production unit.
