| Use advice for data set | When using this data set for Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) purposes, ensure that the scope of the LCA includes potential environmental impacts derived from the usage of chemicals and electricity for in-situ groundwater remediation. The data should only be applied to scenarios where in-situ chemical oxidation is feasible and where the contamination characteristics are similar to those described for the site in Quebec. It is essential to consider the geographical location, as it may influence both the environmental impacts and the effectiveness of the remediation process. |
| Technical purpose of product or process | The described industrial process is utilized for the in-situ remediation of contaminated groundwater. The use of acetic acid, ferrous sulfate, and hydrogen peroxide as oxidizing chemicals along with an electricity-driven in situ oxidation system enables the treatment of underground water sources that are polluted. This technology is typically applied in areas where groundwater contamination poses a risk to ecosystems and human health, and is suitable for sites such as the one located 600 m from a river shore in the northern part of Quebec, Canada. |
