Application of oxidants in in-situ chemical oxidation remediation of underground water
According to the data published by Ministry of Land and Resources in 2015, 61. 3% of China''s groundwater are poor to very poor in quality, and the trend tends to worsen in future. Therefore, it is urgent to remediate groundwater and improve its quality in China. However, groundwater remediation in China is still in its infancy. Among many repair techniques, in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) technology has been widely used for its economic benefits, rapidity and high efficiency. This study systematically introduces ISCO technology, with emphasis on (1) groundwater remediation steps, mainstream technology; (2) oxidant selection. In order to advance the development of groundwater remediation technologies suitable for China, more researches are needed, besides learning experiences from advanced developed countries such as USA and European countries.
