  2. Aluminum building wiring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminum_building_wiring

    Proper torque on the connectors set screws is critical to having an acceptable repair. However, use of the Alumiconn connectors is a relatively newer repair option for older aluminum wiring compared to other methods, and use of these connectors can have some of the same or similar problems with limited enclosure space as the COPALUM connectors.

  3. In situ chemical oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_situ_chemical_oxidation

    This poses a problem in ground water remediation, because the chemical must be able to mix with water to remove the contaminant. Fortunately, ozone (O 3) is about 12 times more soluble than O 2 [5] and, although it is still comparably insoluble, it is a strong oxidant. [3] The unique part of ozone oxidation is its in-situ application.

  4. In situ bioremediation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_situ_Bioremediation

    The Sun Oil pipeline spill in Ambler, Pennsylvania spurred the first commercial usage of in situ bioremediation in 1972 to remove hydrocarbons from contaminated sites. [6] A patent was filed in 1974 by Richard Raymond, Reclamation of Hydrocarbon Contaminated Ground Waters, which provided the basis for the commercialization of in situ bioremediation.

  5. Remediation of contaminated sites with cement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remediation_of...

    In situ is a Latin phrase meaning “in the place”. When referred to chemistry or chemical reactions it means “in the reaction mixture”. In situ S/S, accounting for 20% of S/S projects from 1982–2005, is used to mix binding agents into the contaminated material while remaining on the site.

  6. Electrokinetic remediation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrokinetic_remediation

    Electrokinetic remediation, also termed electrokinetics, is a technique of using direct electric current to remove organic, inorganic and heavy metal particles from the soil by electric potential. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The use of this technique provides an approach with minimum disturbance to the surface while treating subsurface contaminants .

  7. Environmental remediation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_remediation

    Environmental remediation is the cleanup of hazardous substances dealing with the removal, treatment and containment of pollution or contaminants from environmental media such as soil, groundwater, sediment. [1] Remediation may be required by regulations before development of land revitalization projects.

  8. Air sparging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_sparging

    Air sparging, also known as in situ air stripping [1] and in situ volatilization is an in situ remediation technique, used for the treatment of saturated soils and groundwater contaminated by volatile organic compounds (VOCs) like petroleum hydrocarbons, [2] a widespread problem for the ground water and soil health.

  9. Remedial action - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remedial_action

    Brodex Water - Environmental remedial action is often undertaken by water specialists in the case of infected supply. Some, such as UK Company Brodex Water Treatment Specialists, advertise what services the company provides in the event of Legionella disease being discovered in a local supply, such as tank chlorination and equipment replacement.
