Use advice for data set
| When utilizing this life cycle assessment data, the user should consider the geospatial relevance of the process to ensure applicability to the specific site being studied. It is important to pay attention to the details of the construction method and the materials used as they impact the assessment's results. Furthermore, the user should account for any additional infrastructure required for the pump and treat system and should also consider the operational lifetime of the wells in relation to the technological feasibility and intended duration of groundwater remediation projects. |
Technical purpose of product or process
| The constructed pumping wells utilizing polyvinyl chloride (PVC), quartz sand, bentonite, and concrete are designed for groundwater ex-situ remediation. This process is particularly applied to treat contaminated groundwater through extraction, followed by treatment. Such installations are typically used in environmental engineering projects aimed at the restoration of groundwater quality, often required in areas impacted by industrial pollution. |
