Since its inception, IET has developed and patented in-house technologies where appropriate, licensed outside technologies when needed and worked with a variety of product vendors in its effort to offer its clients the best and most efficient remedial options. IET has designed, fabricated and built equipment, tooling, and remedial systems that integrate these technologies such that the consulting engineering companies we contract to are assured that they are providing their customers with appropriate and proven integrated remedial solutions.

Direct Push Injections

IET delivers patented injection techniques that are field proven and results driven.  Our injection tooling is designed in-house and has been field tested by 15 years of injection experience. The benefits of a direct push treatment option include: no waste streams, flexible design and accelerated reduction of target compound concentrations.  Direct push techniques can target a variety of formations and conditions including: sand, silt, clay, glacial till, high and low water tables, etc.

Permanent Well Injections

IET has the ability to inject into permanent wells that have previously been installed in order to streamline the implementation process of the remedial design.  This includes the application of material into: well manifold systems, abandoned SVE systems, and open rock wells.  We also have the ability to inject through single or straddle packer assemblies in order to isolate subsurface intervals for the introduction of remedial materials. In the case of injecting into a fractured rock formation, our pneumatic fracturing capabilities may be necessary. Pneumatic fracturing involves compressed gas injections with pressures ranging from 20 psi to 1000 psi in order to open existing fractures in the contaminated bedrock to introduce remedial materials. The advantage of pneumatic fracturing is it allows for the treatment of contaminants in a bedrock formation via permanent well injection that would normally not be accessible.

In-Situ Soil Mixing

Soil mixing can be used for the in-situ treatment of soils contaminated with volatile organic compounds (VOC’s).  It offers an alternative to excavation and the high costs associated with the transport and disposal of soil classified as “hazardous waste”.  This treatment method is typically applied to shallow contamination in both saturated and unsaturated zones.  Read more about the process.

CASE STUDY

Cleveland Development Project
solbox

The remediation site is located in Cleveland, Ohio. The site contained soil and groundwater impacted by trichloroethene (TCE), cis-1,2-dichloroethene (cis-1,2-DCE), vinyl chloride, and hexavalent chromium. The in-situ injection program targeted these compounds through the use of compressed nitrogen and a solution of EHC-M, calcium propionate, and an oxygen scavenger. Read more…
