Abstract

This study was conducted to document, summarize, and evaluate cost and treatment effectiveness data for air stripping and carbon adsorption systems designed to remove dissolved petroleum hydrocarbons from groundwater. The compounds of primary interest were benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene isomers (BTEX) as well as the oxygenates methyl-tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE) and isopropyl ether (IPE). Operating data were gathered from 57 field sites throughout the United States, and treatment system profiles were generated for each site. The data will be used to assist companies in planning pump-and-treat remediation systems for removal of BTEX and oxygenates from groundwater.
