Main Applications
- Effective and immediate immobilization of contaminant plumes
- Suitable for organic and heavy metal plumes
- Field-tested in large EU projects
- Adjustable for each site
Target contaminants
Groundwater plumes need to be effectively and quickly contained to prevent further spreading. This process applies to both organic pollutants and heavy metals.
Benefits
With intragreen®, we can create sorption barriers to quickly control plume migration for almost every contaminant. Our innovative nanomaterials are completely adapted to the properties of the target contaminants and site hydrochemistry.
For organic pollutants such as PAHs, we have developed intragreen®AC, a completely new colloidal activated charcoal.The intragreen® AC suspension shows a superior subsurface mobility and adsorption capacity.
For heavy metals, such as zinc, nickel, lead or arsenic, we use intragreen® IO, an innovative colloidal iron oxide with a high specific surface. The iron oxides form a stable adsorption barrier, where the heavy metals are retained and the groundwater flow is cleaned.
