A CLEANUP YEARS IN THE MAKING
At a former pharmaceutical manufacturing site in the United States, decades of industrial activity left behind significant environmental concerns. Even after manufacturing at the facility had ceased several years earlier, impacted groundwater and soil remained, requiring extensive remediation efforts.
Remediating this property involved several corrective actions to address contaminated groundwater and other similarly affected areas. Groundwater treatment would also continue well after cleanup efforts were completed as part of long-term stewardship of the site.
In one portion of the project, the challenge became even more significant: affected groundwater and NAPL needed to be removed through a specialized horizontal well at a low pumping rate. That meant finding the right equipment suited to the precise well configuration and capable of delivering the steady, controlled pumping the application required.
