BDM
Bortolami - Di Molfetta S.r.l.
The first remediation by a permeable reactive barrier in Italy.
- A 13 meters deep, 120 meters long continuous trench.
- PRB filled with more than 1'700 tons of zero-valent iron.
- Excavation completed in 9 days with 24/7 shift pattern.
The effectiveness of the PRB has been certified by the Regulator in 2015, on the base of the monitoring data collected in a 10 years period after its construction.
Hydrogeology and groundwater modelling.
- 3D lithostratigraphic models.
- Numerical groundwater flow models.
- Numerical contaminant and heat transport models.
Numerical modelling allows a better comprehension of the physical system and can be used to guide the following investigation and remediation actions, in order to optimize time and economic resources.
Laboratory and pilot-scale experiments on innovative remediation technologies
- In Situ Chemical Oxidation/Reduction.
- Reagent distribution by means of Groundwater Recirculation Systems.
- In situ Bioremediation.
Thanks to solid partnerships with research groups, chemical laboratories and soil investigation companies, we support our costumers from the feasibility assessment to the full-scale project.
