Use advice for data set
When utilizing this data set for Life Cycle Assessment, it is crucial to ensure the inclusion of all relevant subsystems—extraction wells, air-stripping unit (ASU), catalytic oxidation unit (COU), granular activated carbon (GAC) unit, and treatment facilities. Take note of the electricity source, as the system operates using power from the U.S. grid. The replacement frequency of the GAC filter units, every 10 years, should be factored into the maintenance phase of the lifecycle. Any inputs or emissions not covered in the database should be carefully estimated or calculated using appropriate scientific methods or omitted with justified reasoning.

General comment
PTS removes the contaminated groundwater by pumping and use of aboveground treatment facilities. A PTS provides quick initial reductions in contaminant concentrations, but often results in a slow, steady reduction for the long-term.

Technical purpose
The groundwater pump and treatment (PTS) process described is intended for the remediation of contaminated groundwater. It is applied in settings such as military bases, industrial sites, or any location where groundwater has been polluted. This process is particularly relevant for sites requiring both immediate and long-term reduction of pollutant concentrations in groundwater.
