Abstract

The objective of this work was to field-demonstrate the Min-Trap® sampler technology, a new in-situ passive monitoring tool that offers distinct advantages for collecting mineralogical data. The Min-Trap consists of a solid porous medium (e.g., silica sand) contained within a water-permeable mesh and support housing that is deployed inside a monitoring well. The porous medium serves as a solid substrate upon which target minerals passively form. Analysis of the sample medium using chemical, microscopic, spectroscopic, or other techniques can provide direct evidence of geochemical conditions and the formation of target minerals in-situ. The abiotic degradation of chlorinated volatile organic compounds via the reducing power stored in reactive minerals (e.g., iron sulfides) is a recognized important process, and Min-Traps are well suited to document the formation of these minerals during remediation. Min-Traps were tested in multiple wells at two field sites undergoing active remediation where reactive iron sulfide minerals were expected to be actively forming. Min-Trap samples were analyzed by a variety of analytical techniques, including total iron, acid volatile sulfide (AVS), chromium extractable sulfide (CrES; also known as chromium reducible sulfur; CRS), weak acid soluble (WAS) iron, strong acid soluble (SAS) iron, and scanning electron microscopy–energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). The results provided direct verification of iron sulfide minerals in all cases (n = 9) where they were expected or interpreted to be possibly present based on groundwater data. Min-Traps offer the potential for lifecycle cost savings because they do not require the collection of soil core samples, they can aid in better remedy implementation and performance, and they can potentially support earlier transition from active to passive remedy phases.

Min Trap®采样器,用于被动监测氯化溶剂处理的现场硫化铁矿物形成
这项工作的目的是现场演示Min Trap®采样器技术,这是一种新的现场被动监测工具,为收集矿物学数据提供了独特的优势。Min Trap由一种固体多孔介质(如硅砂)组成,该介质包含在透水网和支撑外壳中,支撑外壳部署在监测井中。多孔介质是目标矿物被动形成的固体基质。使用化学、显微镜、光谱或其他技术对样品介质进行分析可以提供地球化学条件和目标矿物原位形成的直接证据。通过储存在活性矿物(如硫化铁)中的还原力对氯化挥发性有机化合物进行非生物降解是一个公认的重要过程,Min Traps非常适合记录修复过程中这些矿物的形成。在两个正在积极修复的油田现场的多口井中测试了最小陷阱,预计活性硫化铁矿物将积极形成。Min-Trap样品通过多种分析技术进行分析,包括总铁、酸挥发性硫化物(AVS)、铬可提取硫化物(CrES;也称为铬可还原硫;CRS)、弱酸溶性(WAS)铁、强酸溶性(SAS)铁以及扫描电子显微镜-能量色散X射线光谱(SEM-EDS)。该结果提供了在所有情况下硫化铁矿物的直接验证(n = 9) 根据地下水数据,它们被预期或解释为可能存在。Min Traps具有节省生命周期成本的潜力,因为它们不需要收集土壤核心样本,有助于更好的补救措施实施和性能,并且有可能支持早期从主动补救阶段过渡到被动补救阶段。
