Abstract:
Environmental pollution remains one of the most serious world problems. Great efforts are made to limit the release of harmful compounds into the environment, and a variety of methods for remediation of soil, surface water, and groundwater have been developed over the years. Chemical remediation technologies are of great interest since they can remove and degrade pollutants in contaminated sites. This paper focuses on several chemical remediation technologies, such as precipitation, flocculation, adsorption and ion exchange, chemical oxidation, soil washing and flushing, and electrokinetic remediation. Remediation technologies are almost always combined one with another, although they can be used separately. Choosing an appropriate technology will depend on the type of the pollutants and site conditions, and it should be done in such a manner so that the most cost-effective and efficient technology is chosen. Even though some of the technologies are used full-scale, research should be focused on enhancing the existing, and developing new remediation technologies.

Abstract:
Nanotechnology has been widely used in many fields including in soil and groundwater remediation. Nanoremediation has emerged as an effective, rapid, and efficient technology for soil and groundwater contaminated with petroleum pollutants and heavy metals. This review provides an overview of the application of nanomaterials for environmental cleanup, such as soil and groundwater remediation. Four types of nanomaterials, namely nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and metallic and magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), are presented and discussed. In addition, the potential environmental risks of the nanomaterial application in soil remediation are highlighted. Moreover, this review provides insight into the combination of nanoremediation with other remediation technologies. The study demonstrates that nZVI had been widely studied for high-efficiency environmental remediation due to its high reactivity and excellent contaminant immobilization capability. CNTs have received more attention for remediation of organic and inorganic contaminants because of their unique adsorption characteristics. Environmental remediations using metal and MNPs are also favorable due to their facile magnetic separation and unique metal-ion adsorption. The modified nZVI showed less toxicity towards soil bacteria than bare nZVI; thus, modifying or coating nZVI could reduce its ecotoxicity. The combination of nanoremediation with other remediation technology is shown to be a valuable soil remediation technique as the synergetic effects may increase the sustainability of the applied process towards green technology for soil remediation.

Abstract:
Soil is a very vital necessity to the ecosystem and human population. Due to the urbanization and industrialization, the quality and the fertility of soil is deteriorating. This has been a huge concern among countries to discover the suitable yet effective solution to remediate the soil as the contaminated soil may introduce unhealthy and unsafe environment to society. One of the common pollutants in soils are heavy metals and it is very challenging to remediate as it is not biodegradable materials. Remediation methods for metals can be classified to two categories; in-situ remediation and ex-situ remediation. Studies show that chemical remediation the most effective methods used. Chemical remediation and biological remediation are also another two available options. Chemical remediation methods can be categorized into four; chemical leaching, chemical fixation, electrokinetic remediation and vitrify technology. Biological remediation includes phytoremediation, bioremediation and the combination of the remediation are one of the most cost effective methods that can be implemented especially in poor and middle income countries as it involves natures such as plants and animals in the process

Abstract:
The application of persulfate (PS) for the remediation of petroleum hydrocarbon contamination is among the most widely employed in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) techniques, and it has received widespread attention due to its limited impact on soil integrity. This study employed a FeSO4-activated PS oxidation method to investigate the feasibility of remediating soil contaminated with total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs). The factors tested included the TPH concentration, different PS:FeSO4 ratios, the reaction time for remediation, soil physical and chemical property changes before and after remediation, and the effect of soil before and after remediation on soybean growth. The TPH degradation rate in soil was highest for high-, medium-, and low-TPHs soils—81.5%, 81.4%, and 72.9%, respectively, with minimal disruption to the soil’s physicochemical properties—when PS:FeSO4 = 1:1. The remediation verification results indicated that the condition of the soybeans was optimal when PS:FeSO4 = 1:1. Under this condition, the net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, intercellular CO2 concentration, and transpiration rate all remained high. Therefore, the best remediation effect was achieved with PS:FeSO4 = 1:1, which also minimized the damage to the soil and the effects on crop growth.

Abstract:
The use of pesticides presents a looming danger to the living elements of our ecological system, crops, and the well-being of our species. As an outcome, various organic contaminants pollute the soil. Different physical, chemical, and biological remediation techniques have been employed for the decontamination of pesticide-polluted soils. Remediation technology should always be affordable, on-site or in-situ, and capable of restoring the soil's natural functionality. The presence of multiple pesticides can pose challenges in effectively remediating them from the soil. The present work examines the scientific literature on the benefits and drawbacks of various existing and emerging soil remediation techniques. Customized technology choices and designs for specific site conditions enhance the effective cleanup of polluted areas. The present study, which evaluates and contrasts various technological approaches, shall serve as an invaluable tool for determining the optimal soil remediation method for a given contamination dilemma.

Abstract:
Abstract In the 21st century, with the progress and development of science and technology, the pollution of water resources has become one of the main concerns. Currently available technologies for the remediation of water pollution are mainly physical and chemical remediation, and bioremediation is used in relatively few places. This paper presents the advantages and disadvantages of phytoremediation of wastewater and the current status of the application. The existing physical remediation methods, chemical remediation methods, and then bioremediation methods of in situ and ex situ remediation are described. Phytoremediation belongs to the in situ remediation method of bioremediation, which refers to the use of green plants and their inter-root microorganisms to work together to fix or decompose pollutants. Different classifications of plants play different roles in remediation, and different kinds of plants of the same classification are applied in different environments. Compared with traditional restoration methods, phytoremediation has the advantages of lower cost, additional effect on the surrounding air and soil removal, improved soil fertility after restoration, improved local landscape, a wide range of adaptation and economic benefits, etc. However, phytoremediation technology also has its shortcomings, we should invest more scientific research efforts in the research of phytoremediation technology in the future, and combine it with practice to strengthen the application of phytoremediation in wastewater treatment and reduce the harm brought to people by polluted water resources.

Abstract:
In metal machining processes, the regulation of heat generation and lubrication at the contact point are achieved by application of a fluid referred to as metalworking fluid (MWF). This has the combined features of the cooling properties of water and lubricity of oil. MWFs inevitably become operationally exhausted with age and intensive use, which leads to compromised properties, thereby necessitating their safe disposal. Disposal of this waste through a biological route is an increasingly attractive option, since it is effective with relatively low energy demands when compared to current physical and chemical options. However, biological treatment is challenging since MWF are chemically complex, including the addition of toxic biocides which are added specifically to retard microbial deterioration whilst the fluids are operational. This makes bacterial treatment exceptionally challenging and has stimulated the search and need to assess technologies which complement biological treatment. In this study the remediation, specifically of the recalcitrant component of a semi-synthetic MWF, employing a novel hybrid treatment approach consisting of both bacteriological and chemical treatment, was investigated. Three chemical pre-treatment methods (Fenton’s oxidation, nano-zerovalent iron (nZVI) oxidation and ozonation) of the recalcitrant components followed by bacterial degradation were examined. The synergistic interaction of Fenton’s-biological oxidation and nZVI-biodegradation led to an overall COD reduction of 92% and 95.5% respectively, whereas pre-treatment with ozone reduced the total pollution load by 70% after a post-biological step. An enhancement in biodegradability was observed after each of the chemical treatments, thus facilitating the overall treatment process. The findings from this study established that the use of non-pathogenic microorganisms to remediate organic materials present in MWF wastewater is a favourable alternative to energy demanding physical and chemical treatment options. However, optimal performance of this biological process may require chemical enhancement, particularly for those components that are resistant to biological transformation.

Abstract:
There is an increasing demand for the provision of cleaner safer water. In the last 5 years, the global water supply industry has spent > £57 billion on purification treatments. With an increasing population and energy costs, investment is predicted to increase over the next 10 years. Moreover, the industry is attempting to move towards more efficient and sustainable processes for the treatment of a wide range of contaminants. This project focuses on two novel sustainable technologies for remediation of common waste water contaminants: photoelectrocatalysis (pathogens and 2,4-DCP) and biosorption (heavy metals - HMs). The application of semiconductor photocatalysis in waste water treatment has been intensively investigated over the past decade. These studies mainly involve nano dimensional titanium dioxide as a photocatalyst using ultra-violet light as an energy source. However, practical applications are still limited by its poor visible light activity. In this study a photoelectrocatalytic batch cell (PECB) and photoelectrocatalytic fuel cell with a flow through configuration (PECFC) containing a visible light active tungsten trioxide (W03) photocatalyst have been optimised and assessed for contaminant remediation. The potential for the PECB to disinfect a surrogate human pathogen, the lux-marked E. coli HE 101 pUCD607, is investigated in Chapter 3. Disinfection experiments indicated that a > 99 % decrease in CFU/rnl occurred within 15 min. Although, this experiment showed that bacterial disinfection can be achieved by light alone (photolysis), the results indicated that disinfection rates were enhanced considerably by using the immobilised thin film W03 photoelectrocatalyst. This alternative catalyst was further assessed in a flow through PECFC system. The combination of the visible light enhanced W03 and the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) technology to remediation of 2,4-DCP in waste waters is investigated in Chapter 4. Degradation of 2,4-DCP was monitored over a period of 24 hrs. A total decrease of 74 % in 2,4-DCP concentration was observed, from which ea. 54 % were accountable to photoelectrocatalytic degradation processes and 20 % due to losses by adsorption or volatilisation. This decreased further to > 98 % removal over 6 days. A combination of chemical (HPLC) and bacterial biosensor (lux-marked Escherichia coli HB101 pUCD607) toxicity responses confirmed degradation of the parent compound with a concomitant increase in toxicity due to formation of intermediates, respectively. The reduction in 2,4-DCP concentration was observed to follow first order kinetics assuming a perfect flow model for the PECFC. However, more work is required to improve sustain ability of this technique as reduced efficiency of the PECFC occurred with prolonged use of the MEA (potentially due to occlusion of the catalytic sites), leading to loss of membrane conductivity. A major constraint with PECFC is the presence of eo-contaminants such as HMs that limit the efficiency of the MEA. Therefore, Chapter 5 assesses the efficacy and mechanisms for a sustainable biosorbent (distillery spent grain - DSG) to remove HMs from contaminated waters. A batch system was employed to determine the sorption of five different HMs from aqueous solution to DSG. Adsorption occurred up to a saturation point of 11.8, 14.1, 11.2, 38.1 and 14.6 mg of Co, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn / g DSG, respectively. Adsorption for all HMs conformed to the Freundlich isotherm model, indicating heterogeneity of the DSG surface. The sorption of HM followed the pseudo- second-order kinetic model, indicating that the rate-controlling step in the process was chemical interaction between the HM ions and the functional groups on the DSG surface. An increased sorption efficiency of the DSG occurred with increased storage time as decomposition of the organic matrix resulted in increased number of active sorption sites. However, deterioration in the aesthetic quality of the DSG meant that a balance was required between optimum performance and ease of handling in the application of this material; an optimum storage period of 3 months has been proposed. The batch equilibrium sorption experiments estimated sorption under optimal conditions where there was no limiting rate of interaction between HM and DSG active sites. A leaching set up more reminiscent of a 'real life' in-stream remediation scenario is assessed in Chapter 6. Successful sorption of all five HMs was observed but this was significantly reduced compared to batch equlibia. Moreover, an assessment of the effect of competing ions (NaCl) on HM sorption efficiency of the DSG indicated that increasing the ionic strength of the HM solution generally resulted in a decrease in HM sorption capacity of DSG at lower initial HM concentrations but the opposite effect was observed at the highest initial HM concentration. Sequential extractions, carried out on the BM-laden DSG after leaching experiments indicated that all five HMs studied were strongly bound within the organic matrix of the DSG as < 10 % of the sorbed HMs were loosely bound on labile or exchangeable sites. A preliminary investigation of DSG as a potential sorbent for 2,4-DCP is described in Chapter 7. For two concentrations (16.3 and 40.75 mg/l) , 66.0-68.9- % and 39.6-44.3 % of the 2,4-DCP was removed in batch and leaching experimental set-ups, respectively. The W03 photoelectrocatalytic fuel cells (batch PECB and continuous flow PECFC) and waste-derived biosorbent investigated during the course of this study are both promising emerging technologies for sustainable waste water treatment technologies. Moreover, there is potential for both technologies to act as complementary systems in a treatment train with the DSG deployed upstream of the PECFC (Chapter 8). This DSG- PECFC arrangement could potentially improve the efficiency of the PECFC to degrade organic contaminants, as the DSG will sorb both HM and organic pollutants, thereby reducing the contaminant concentration load stream entering the PECFC. This proposed set-up could in principle be adapted for application in-line of existing waste water treatment systems.

Abstract:
Wastewater treatment is not a new concept as water bodies around the world have been polluted since the dawn of industrialisation. With the increase in human activities, including domestic, industrial, and commercial practices, water pollution levels continue to rise due to aqueous contaminants. In addition, rapid industrialisation and recent human progress have given rise to a new form of pollution - emerging contaminants (ECs) - which are highly resistant to biodegradation and can travel across the world. While traditional wastewater treatment methods, such as adsorption, can combat these chemicals, their production of sludge is a major drawback that leads to secondary contaminants. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have emerged as a prominent choice among other wastewater remediation technologies owing to their ability to convert emerging organic pollutants to less toxic compounds through complete oxidation, such as mineral salts, CO2, and H2O. AOPs rely on the generation of reactive radicals to attack pollutants, however, the performance of AOPs for environmental remediation depends on the availability of a suitable catalytic material that can provide sufficient active sites for completing the redox reactions and can be efficiently recovered and reused. Recently, graphene and its derivatives, such as reduced graphene oxide (rGO), have demonstrated high efficiencies for the catalytic oxidation of aqueous pollutants, thanks to their extremely large specific surface area, superior interfacial charge transfer properties, and excellent functional chemistry. The self-assembly of rGO into three-dimensional (3D) macrostructures further enhances its catalytic properties, making it a promising candidate for large-scale operations. Taking advantage of 3D graphene-based materials, this thesis presents novel remediation technologies for wastewater treatment. Macroscopic graphene-based materials were fabricated and modified through various techniques, such as structural manipulation, heteroatom doping and integration with other carbonaceous materials, to enhance their catalytic activity in AOPs. Different facile techniques such as coagulation and cross-linking, freeze-casting and annealing, and hydrothermal and hydraulic pressing were employed to fabricate 3D macrostructures. The physical and chemical properties of the prepared materials were characterised using advanced techniques such as Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, among others. The catalytic activity of the prepared materials was evaluated by applying them in AOPs using peroxygens (peroxymonosulfate - PMS and peroxydisulfate - PS) to remove 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (HBA) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) from wastewater. The primary performance indicator in this thesis was the extent of modification, where optimal modification conditions were identified to maintain the best catalytic properties. The influence of various reaction parameters on the reaction kinetics was investigated, and electron paramagnetic resonance coupled with selective radical quenching was used to identify the radical and free radical species generated during the AOPs. The mineralisation ability of the prepared materials was evaluated using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography. The results showed that the prepared macroscopic graphene-based materials exhibited excellent catalytic activity for the removal of ECs from wastewater using AOPs. This PhD study provides a fundamental basis for the development of efficient and sustainable graphene-based materials for real-world applications in wastewater treatment.

Abstract:
Industrial processing of ores and minerals may result in naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM) becoming concentrated in wastes and installations. These radioactive materials are a potential health hazard, therefore, waste needs to be disposed of responsibly. This consigns the industry to costly disposal initiatives under the current directives. This study, scale deposits were collected from a decommissioned phosphoric acid processing plant, in order to determine the nature and concentration of NORM retained in process installations. The scale samples predominantly comprise the following: fluorides (e.g. ralstonite); calcium sulphate, and an assemblage of mixed fluorides and phosphates (e.g. iron fluoride hydrate, calcium phosphate).

Abstract:
This thesis evaluated the feasibility and performance of electrode‐based technologies for managing environmental contaminants. Specifically, research presented here focuses on the use of electrodes for in situ sediment remediation, and for the selective removal of bromide from brines produced in hydraulic fracturing. Sediment capping is an in situ remediation strategy to contain contaminants. Compared to traditional sand and sorbent‐amended caps, reactive caps capable of transforming contaminants may improve the remediation efficiency. However, few materials that can provide long‐term contaminant degradation are available for use in sediment caps. An electrode‐based reactive cap using carbon electrodes as the reactive capping material is proposed in this study to stimulate abiotic and biotic contaminant degradation in situ. A thorough understanding of factors affecting cap performance is essential to apply such reactive caps in the field. The primary objectives of study presented here for reactive sediment capping are to demonstrate the ability of an electrode‐based reactive cap to degrade sediment contaminants, to identify factors affecting contaminant degradation, and to investigate the impact of powered electrodes on contaminant biodegradation. Preliminary results in this study demonstrated a laboratory scale simulated sand cap containing carbon electrodes connected to a DC power supply induced and maintained redox gradient in Anacostia River sediment for more than 100 days. Hydrogen and oxygen were produced by water electrolysis at the electrode surfaces and may serve as electron donor and acceptor for potential contaminant degradation. The hydrogen production rate was proportional to the applied voltage between 2.5 and 5 V, and not greatly affected by pH or the presence of metal cations. Increasing ionic strength and addition of natural organic matter promoted hydrogen production. Complete nitrobenzene (NB) degradation was achieved in batch reactors with graphite electrodes. NB was stoichiomtrically reduced to aniline (AN) at the cathode with nitrosobenzene (NSB) as an intermediate, followed by rapid oxidization of AN at the anode. The reduction rate of NB and NSB were enhanced by increasing the applied voltage between the electrodes from 2V to 3.5V, but diminishing returns were observed above 3.5 V. NB and NSB reduction rate constants were faster at lower initial NB concentrations. Humic acid and simulated Anacostia River sediment porewater both affected the degradation rate, but only to a limited extent (~factor of 3). The effect of powered electrodes on contaminant biodegradation rates was investigated in sediment slurry using 2,4‐dichlorophenol (DCP) as a probe compound. DCP was reductively transformed to 4‐chlorophenol in sediment slurry with powered or unpowered electrodes. Graphite felt electrodes did not change DCP removal rates in nutrient‐amended sediment slurry and carbon paper electrodes decreased DCP removal rate in unamended sediment slurry. The observed negative effect of powered electrodes on DCP biodegradation rate may be caused by hydrogen production and increase of sediment pH near the cathode, since an increase of either hydrogen concentration or pH was found to depress the dechlorination rate in unamended sediment slurries without electrodes. Another application of electrode‐based contaminant removal technology evaluated in this study is selective bromide removal from mining brine produced in hydraulic fracturing of shale gas. Such brine (referred as “flowback” and “produced” water) has raised a number of environmental and human health issues. An important health concern associated with the brine is its high bromide concentration (~1g/L). If the brine is discharged to receiving waters that serve as drinking water sources, the bromide in it can lead to the formation of carcinogenic brominated disinfection byproducts (DBPs) during water treatment. However, the co‐existence of other ions in the mining brine, especially chloride as high as 30‐200 g/L, makes selective bromide removal technically challenging.

Abstract:
Contaminated sites in low prioritized regions demand remediation technologies that are cost- and energy-effective and locally adapted. Parameters such as the time frame during which bioremediation degradation needs to occur may not be as restraining as in urban environments. This licentiate project aims to explore opportunities and constraints for appropriate soil remediation based on organic by-products in tropical developing countries and sparsely populated areas in industrial countries. Ecological Engineering and the Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development were explored as planning tools to steer bioremediation methods towards sustainability. The use of the five concepts of Ecological Engineering within the Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development can steer bioremediation in low prioritized regions towards sustainability. Pilot-scale and laboratory experiments were undertaken to evaluate the feasibility of such bioremediation methods. Experiments carried out at the experiment station in Chontales, Nicaragua showed some promising results, but also revealed problems associated with the clay rich soils, which are typical for tropical regions. Treatment of diesel contaminated ultisol with 6 mL whey kg-1 dw in a pilot-scale experiment considerably increased the degradation rate of diesel constituents, but no effects on the degradation rates were observed after treatment with compost tea or pyroligneous acid.The soil columns study suggests that despite a favorable particle size distribution for microbial transport, the sandy loam retained a greater fraction of the microorganisms present in the ACT in the top 10 cm than the clay loam, presumably because the lower bulk density and higher SOM in the clay loam aided transport and growth of microorganisms.

Full text
Abstract:
Since the end of the Cold War, the combined influence of audiovisual media, modern urban conflicts and asymmetric enemies has generated a new kind of military live training simulation to prepare soldiers for future combats. These novel hybrid exercise battlefields are situated in artificially constructed urban spaces and integrate real physical training with techniques and imagery inspired by the fields of cinema and media. This thesis critically examines this convergence of entertainment practices and images in military training and the resulting, potentially negative, impacts on the execution of warfare and perception of urban spaces and populations. The thesis begins by tracing the evolution of terrain representations in wargames – from black and white squares, painted landscape elements and actual maps, to virtual environments, miniature houses and real-scale architectures. The historical relationship between the film industry and military training is analysed in order to explore the emergence of cinematic components in simulated combat training landscapes that brought the flat world of wargames to its real third dimension. The mock urban training space is then investigated as a “meta-cinematic city” – a city created through cinematic tools, including set and sound design, which portrays a cinematic city (a city as represented through a filmic medium). This analysis focuses on how cinematic elements, such as creative geographies and architectural sequences, are created in order to train for the subversion of traditional conceptions of urban spaces and architectural elements in urban combats. Furthermore, the examination reveals how the sensory qualities of moving image technologies are employed to generate a multi-sensory “hyperrealism” and “hyperimmersion” to train physical and emotional reactions and engrain military responses to combat stimuli. The analysis furthermore excavates both the conscious and unconscious remediation of media imagery and practices in the creation of the artificial “human terrain”. The mise-en-scène of the enemy population is investigated in order to uncover how the simulation of “foreign” and “alien” identities is increasingly based on the media coverage of these population groups. The analysis critically considers how the resulting role-play reproduces self-perpetuating stereotypes that pre-shape the soldiers’ perception of populations. Lastly, the thesis explores how artificial media cycles are generated as part of the combat training to prepare soldiers’ self-representation and communication skills under unpredictable, straining circumstances and to effectively communicate the army’s message to the world. This section especially focuses on the growing military “weaponisation” of the media, which has now begun to market the military training itself as an entertainment attraction to worldwide audiences – thus closing the circle between entertainment and military practices and subsuming the population in the war preparation. With entertainment and marketing imagery, technologies and concepts now at the core of military preparation, stereotypes of population groups and urban spaces and a “de-realization”, “gamification” and “sanitisation” of warfare are increasingly carried over into real conflicts, thus affecting critical decisions as a result of entertainment-based conditioning. Furthermore, to ensure public support, the general population is turned into an indispensable part of military training through participatory video games, social media and training centre visits and consequently becomes increasingly complicit in the merging of entertainment and military practices and subject to the same remediated preconceptions.

Abstract:
In 2015 we celebrated the 750th anniversary of Dante Alighieri’s birth. In light of the popularity of Dante’s imagery, channelled through a variety of the arts and across national contexts for more than seven centuries, this study explores practices of adaptation and remediation of Dante’s Inferno through the cinematic screen in 2005-2015 as well as its relationship with digital technologies. Despite our understanding of Dante and the screen being enriched by the contribution of several scholars such as Antonella Braida, Luisa Calé, Dennis Looney and Nick Havely, amongst others, very little has been written about the aesthetic, social and political impact of digital technologies on cinematic adaptations of the infernal imagery. In order to fill this gap in knowledge, this study investigates the remediate power of digital technology by simultaneously exploring its involvement and its impact. This includes an examination of film production, conservation, circulation and reception. In order to do so, I scrutinise the following three key case studies: Milano Film’s Inferno (ITA,1911), Pier Paolo Pasolini’s Salò – 120 Days of Sodom (ITA, 1975) and David Cronenberg’s Cosmopolis (CAN, FR, ITA, POR, 2012). This multi-disciplinary approach offers a theoretical revision of the theory of adaptation, shifting from the enduring centrality of the ‘reference text’ to a more intermedial awareness of the pivotal role played by the cinematic screen. This enables an exploration of the cultural, political and social impact of Dante’s inspired infernal imagery in the 21st century.

Abstract:
Abstract Many gas pipelines in operation in the United States today were constructed prior to coating and cathodic protection (CP) current practices. A number of these vintage pipelines had no coating and had CP installed long after their construction thus allowing initial corrosion growths. With continual public and industrial growth and development on and around these pipelines, plus normal maintenance, there is a need to conduct periodic integrity assessments to insure public safety and maintain pipeline efficiency. One of the best tools currently available to measure or gauge pipeline integrity is the intelligent or smart pig. While there are various technologies offered by In line inspection (ILI) vendors, magnetic flux leakage (MFL) is the one most commonly utilized for in-line inspections of natural gas pipelines. Over the years there has been much speculation over the ability of an MFL tool to clearly define corrosion magnitudes on uncoated pipelines because the MFL signals are distorted by the external corrosion “crust “ or growth. In addition, many of the uncoated lines constructed utilized seamless pipe which compounds the problem with uneven wall thickness’ common with seamless pipe. Also, the irregular internal surfaces produce additional distortions or “noise" in the MFL signal. Analysis of the smart pig results are quite difficult when evaluating an uncoated seamless pipeline. However, with the latest advances in MFL smart pigs it is possible to accurately analyze corrosion on uncoated seamless steel pipelines. The ability to accurately identify corrosion on such structures provides the mechanism to evaluate the pipeline’s integrity with analytical tools such as RSTRENG, (remaining strength). From that a successful remediation program can be developed which will save the pipeline operator millions of dollars when compared to the expensive alternative of replacing the pipeline.

Abstract:
The Savannah River Site (SRS) Figure 1 is a 310-square-mile United States Department of Energy nuclear facility located along the Savannah River near Aiken, South Carolina. During operations, which started in 1951, hazardous substances (chemicals and radionuclides) were released to the environment. The releases occurred as a result of inadvertent spills and waste disposal in unlined pits and basins which was common practice before environmental regulations existed. The hazardous substances have migrated to the vadose zone and groundwater in many areas of the SRS, resulting in 515 waste units that are required by environmental regulations, to undergo characterization and, if needed, remediation. In the initial years of the SRS environmental cleanup program (early 1990s), the focus was to use common technologies (such as pump and treat, air stripping, excavation and removal) that actively and tangibly removed contamination. Exclusive use of these technologies required continued and significant funding while often failing to meet acceptable clean-up goals and objectives. Recognizing that a more cost-effective approach was needed, SRS implemented new and complementary remediation methods focused on active and passive technologies targeted to solve specific remediation problems. Today, SRS uses technologies such as chemical / pH-adjusting injection, phytoremediation, underground cutoff walls, dynamic underground stripping, soil fracturing, microbial degradation, baroballs, electrical resistance heating, soil vapor extraction, and microblowers to more effectively treat contamination at lower costs. Additionally, SRS’s remediation approach cost effectively maximizes cleanup as SRS works proactively with multiple regulatory agencies. Using GIS, video, animation, and graphics, SRS is able to provide an accurate depiction of the evolution of SRS groundwater and vadose zone cleanup activities to convince stakeholders and regulators of the effectiveness of various cleanup technologies. Remediating large, complex groundwater plumes using state of-the art technologies and approaches is a hallmark of years of experience and progress. Environmental restoration at SRS continues to be a challenging and dynamic process as new cleanup technologies and approaches are adopted.
