Technical purpose The described industrial process involves the use of a caisson-based gate configured as part of a Permeable Reactive Barrier (PRB) system. This system, incorporating a 2.4 m diameter caisson and a 1.2 m × 1.2 m column of Zero Valent Iron (ZVI), is specifically designed for in-situ groundwater remediation. The funnel-and-gate configuration of the PRB allows for the natural gradient flow of groundwater through the reactive cell, facilitating the degradation or capture of pollutants. This technology is implemented for environmental management and remediation at sites like Dover Air Force Base, where containment and treatment of contaminated groundwater are necessary. |
