Abstract |
The Fry Canyon site in southeastern Utah was selected in 1996 as a long-term field demonstration site to assess the performance of selected permeable reactive barriers for the removal of uranium (U) from groundwater. Permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) are permeable walls that are installed across the flow path of a contaminant plume. The wall is designed to be at least as permeable as the surrounding aquifer material. The PRBs contain a zone of reactive material that is designed to act as a passive in-situ treatment zone for specific contaminants as groundwater flows through it. The use of PRBs for remediating organic-contaminated groundwater is fairly well documented. This project demonstrates one of the first uses of PRBs for remediating uranium contaminated groundwater. A series of laboratory experiments were conducted on three classes of potential PRB materials (phosphate, zero valent iron, and ferric iron) to determine uranium removal efficiencies and hydrologic properties. A PRB material from each class was selected for field demonstration. The selected materials had suitable hydraulic conductivity, high U removal efficiency, and high compaction strengths. |
