What does EAS™ stand for?
EAS™ stands for Electron Acceptor Solution.
Will EAS™ work on gross free product?
EAS™ is not suggested at sites where gross free product is available. EAS™ can be used at sites with residual impact ("sheen" or high dissolved concentrations) and it can be used to polish off sites where gross free product has been removed. Residual soil impact in vadose zone may need to be addressed by other techniques.
Are their any limitiations with the EAS™ Technology?
- The groundwater must be deeper than 5 feet below ground surface
- The distance to residence, surface water or private well must be greater than 100 ft
- Distance to municipal DW well (100s of gpm) > 1250 ft
- The plume should be stable or decreasing
What parameters should I test prior to injection? During? Post?
