ISOTEC is a full-service environmental remediation firm
pioneering in situ chemical treatment techniques including
persulfate, permanganate and our patented Modified Fenton's
Reagent. A wide range of contaminants including BTEX, MTBE,
PAHs (e.g. naphthalene), chlorinated alkenes (e.g., PCE, TCE, DCE, VC), chlorinated
alkanes (e.g., 1,1,1-TCA, carbon tetrachloride), chlorophenols (e.g. pentachlorophenol),
and pesticides (e.g. lindane, chlordane) can be treated cost effectively in a short
timeframe using the ISOTEC treatment approach. ISOTECs persulfate technology
uses sodium persulfate catalyzed by heat, hydrogen peroxide or patented chelated iron
complex to produce sulfate free radicals that attack contaminants. ISOTEC's patented
Modified Fenton's Reagent technology uses chelated iron catalysts and stabilized hydrogen
peroxide, which are injected into the contaminated subsurface at neutral pH to produce
hydroxyl and superoxide free radicals to oxidize and reduce organic contaminants. The
reaction by-products include carbon dioxide, water, and chloride ions (if chlorinated
contaminants are present). ISOTEC also specializes in combined or sequential application
of Fentons, persulfate, or permanganate to achieve optimal treatment results. Whether it
is soil or groundwater remediation, bedrock, or vadose zone treatment, ISOTEC has an
ISCO approach to satisfy your remedial needs. www.insituoxidation.com
Kerfoot Technologies, Inc. is an acknowledged leader in
groundwater remediation and characterization equipment.
For over 25 years, KTI has invented and manufactured
innovative instruments and methods to obtain fast, effective,
accurate, and efficient results. KTIs products include its
microbubble air/ozone chemical oxidation sytems (C-Sparger ® and Perozone),
heat-pulse groundwater flowmeters (GeoFlo®), and soil gas push-probe samplers.
KTIs processes and systems have been used on hundreds of remediation sites in the
United States, Canada, and Europe. Minimal site disruption, low profile, and rapid site
closure are the hallmarks of our C-Sparger® and Perozone systems. The technology
is particularly effective on petroleum and chlorinated solvent spills, substituting for
costly and time-consuming dig-and-haul or pump-and-treat. www.kerfoottech.com
