Innovative Remedial Solution

Senversa is working with a commercial dry cleaning operation in Sydney, to control residual contamination from a source zone associated with a historical chlorinated solvent plume. The source zone has been successfully contained using the sustainable remediation approach of enhanced in-situ bioremediation (EISB) coupled with hydraulic containment. This is one of the largest and most successful applications of EISB in Australia and while this approach is more usually applied to dissolved phase plumes this is also one of a few successful examples of DNAPL source zone remediation globally. This approach has, in a sustainable and cost-effective manner, successfully remediated off-site contamination issues and one on-site source zone whilst allowing a commercial scale laundry to keep operating.
