DESCRIPTION
EOx™ is an established in situ technology that enhances the aerobic biodegradation of a wide range of contaminants.
EOx benefits:
• Slowly releases oxygen (typically between 9-12 months) to aid long-term aerobic biodegradation
• Lowest cost calcium peroxide on the market
• Powdered material with no inert fillers
• Increases pH
• Effective for a wide range of hydrocarbons, including BTEX and PAHs
EOx applications:
• Excavations: Evenly disperse powder in the base of excavations and add water to saturate the subgrade and backfill.
• Direct Injection: Mix powder with water (4 parts water: 1 part EOx) and inject through conventional wells or direct push rods.
