Use advice for data set
| When utilizing this LCA data set for the impermeable funnel and PRB system in groundwater remediation, ensure the inclusion of all major raw materials and essential energy consumption in the assessment. Users should consider the system's technological applicability for the specific contamination scenario at the site in question. Accurately include system boundaries and operational data such as longevity, replacement frequency of active materials, and specific site conditions. Recycling of materials within the reactive barrier should be modeled according to the protocol for environmental impact analysis applicable to the specific context. |
Technical purpose of product or process
| This industrial process is designed for in-situ groundwater remediation. The impermeable funnel, constructed of closed sheet piles or mud walls, is embedded within a groundwater barrier layer. It is specifically used to direct or funnel contaminated groundwater flow through a permeable reactive barrier (PRB), where it is treated with active materials to remove or neutralize pollutants. |
