Model assessment of reductive dechlorination as a remediation technology for contaminant sources in fractured clay: Modeling tool

Delrapport II

Abstract
A better understanding of reductive dechlorination as a remediation technology in fractured clay systems is achieved by development of a numerical model characterizing the main processes and assessing the clean up times. These can be significantly reduced when dechlorination is enhanced. However the remediation action can increase the contaminant flux to the aquifer by the formation of daughter products. The results are sensitive to porosity, sorption coefficient, net infiltration and fracture spacing.

The Danish Environmental Protection Agency will, when opportunity offers, publish reports and contributions relating to environmental research and development projects financed via the Danish EPA.

Please note that publication does not signify that the contents of the reports necessarily reflect the views of the Danish EPA.

The reports are, however, published because the Danish EPA finds that the studies represent a valuable contribution to the debate on environmental policy in Denmark.
