Groundwater Injection Process Filters Out Contaminants

of remediation, the barrier remains effective for up to 30 years.

"Monitoring of test results at Hanford will continue because groundwater moves slowly, and the remediated groundwater won't reach the river for about another two years," Fruchter said.

ISRM also has been field tested at the H-reactor on the Hanford Site. It is scheduled to be field tested this year at an Army base in Ft. Lewis, Wash., and a Navy base, Moffitt Field in Mountain View, Calif., to remediate chlorinated hydrocarbons. Chlorinated solvents have been used as degreasers and super cleaners in military maintenance operations.

Pacific Northwest is one of DOE's nine multiprogram national laboratories and conducts research in the fields of environment, energy, health sciences and national security. Battelle, based in Columbus, Ohio, has operated Pacific Northwest for DOE since 1965.
