Enhanced Oxidation. Employed on-site pilot-scale technology that combined the oxidative powers of UV light, ozone, and hydrogen peroxide as an alternative to off-site disposal of toxic leachate.

Reverse Osmosis. Ran pilot-scale reverse osmosis to separate noxious compounds from the leachate's water.

Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) with Microfiltration (MF). Operated PAC-MC pilot-scale technology to explore leachate decontamination.

Leachate Pretreatment. Designed and built a pilot-scale system in the field for the precipitation, flocculation, clarification, and filtration of an industrial landfill leachate prior to reverse osmosis and enhanced oxidation treatments.

Interceptor Trench (French Drain). Designed a trench-drain to capture renegade contaminated groundwater.

Soil Washing to Remove Lead. Designed and executed engineering experiments using a chelating agent to wash out soil-bound lead.

Soil Vapor Extraction (SVE). Evaluated pilot-scale soil vapor extraction to remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from soil.

Low Temperature Thermal Treatment (LT3). Assessed pilot-scale low temperature thermal treatment to remove VOCs from soil.

Biodegradation. Created biodegration soil columns to establish the efficacy of biodegradation in removing phenol and cresols.

Passive Evaporation. Devised bench-scale passive evaporation of contaminated soil to test its efficacy in removing phenol and cresols.

Soil Washing to Remove Phenol and Cresols. Oversaw bench-scale soil washing to test its ability to remove phenol and cresols from soil. Then co-designed the full-scale treatment that successfully removed phenol and cresols from soil.

Mercury Extent of Contamination and Remedial Design. Determined the extent of mercury contamination in a 34,000 sq ft instrument building and developed a cleanup technique to remove the mercuy.

Encapsulation. Immobilized creosote and pentachlorophenol in wood treatment facility soil to minimize contaminant mobility.

Steam Injection.  Developed a site selection process to best location an innovative in-situ technology that removes soil contaminants. 

Site Closure.  Reduced the risk of exposure to nearby residents by finding overlooked toxics during a site closure.

Sampling & Preliminary Economic Analysis.  Evaluated the site-specific environmental, logistical, and cost aspects of various on-site and off-site treatment alternatives.
