Injection Techniques

Since chemical oxidation requires the oxidizing agents to come into direct contact with the contaminants, utilizing a suitable in-situ delivery system is critical to the success of the project. BMS delivers reagents into the subsurface via a closely spaced grid of injection points throughout the full areal and vertical extent of contamination.  Dependant upon site characteristics, reagents may be delivered into the subsurface utilizing our patented high velocity fluid jetting system or with direct push technology.

The Direct Injection Delivery System (DID System)

The DID System uses high velocity/low volume fluids to liquefy the soils in front of the injector probe tip allowing the probe rod to be advanced into the subsurface by hand.  This technique is particularly effective at shallow sites or when treating inside buildings, tank pits, product line trenches and utility corridors.

Injection with Direct Push Technology

For deeper contaminants or sites with gravel or cobble, Direct Push Technology is used to inject BIOX® reagents.  Once the probe has been advanced to the appropriate depth, our DID System is connected to the hollow probe rod and the specified volume of reagents is injected into the subsurface.  This process is repeated at two-foot vertical intervals until the full vertical extent of contamination has been treated.

Our injection procedures maximize dispersion and contact with the contaminants.
