The 703 Waterloo Emitter, is a cost effective, simple device that has been designed to assist in-situ remedial biodegradation of MTBE, BTEX and other contaminants. It is intended for the controlled and uniform release of oxygen or other bio-enhancing amendments, which encourages and sustains the growth of microorganisms required for in-situ bioremediation of contaminated groundwater.
The 703 uses patented technology enabling a continuous, direct diffusion of oxygen into an aquifer through a pressurized silicone or LDPE tubing. The continuous release of oxygen into the tubing creates the ideal concentration gradient driving this passive system, without bubbling off excess oxygen.
The Waterloo Emitter has silicone or polyethylene tubing coiled around a PVC frame. When fluid enters the tubing it can be pressurized to obtain the desired diffusive transfer of gas making it appropriate for site specific needs. The units can be stacked in a well and joined from one well to another to create a controlled continuous diffusion of gas into the plume. They are suitable for 50, 100, 150mm (2â??, 4â?? and 6â??) wells.
