07 June 2002 <br /> AGE-NC Project No. 99-0645 <br /> Page 7 of 9 <br /> The six SVE borings will be advanced utilizing a truck--mounted drill rig equipped with 8-inch <br /> diameter hollow stem augers, the borings will be advanced to depths of approximately 45, 50. 55 or <br /> 70 feet bsg, respective to their completion depth. <br /> The SVE wells will be completed with 2-inch diameter, schedule 40 PVC well casing emplaced <br /> through the hollow stern augers. Each SVE well will utilize slotted well casing (0.030-inch screen <br /> size) from 15 feet to 45 feet bsg or from 25 to 55 feet bsg: the dual-screened well will utilize slotted <br /> well casings from 20 feet to 35 feet and 40 feet to 70 feet bsg. <br /> A #3 Lonestar Lapis Luster sand will be poured down the annulus between the well casing and the <br /> inner wall of the hollow stem auger. The falter pack will be placed adjacent to the screen from the <br /> bottom of the boring to a point approximately 1 feet above the top of the screen. For the dual- <br /> screened well, a due] filter pack will be installed, below and above a bentonite chip seal From 35 feet <br /> to 40 feet bsg. <br /> Following placement of the filter pack. the well will be surged to assist in settling the filter pack. <br /> Additional sand will be added if settling occurs. <br /> A two foot interval of bentonite pellets (annular seal) will be placed above the upper portion of the <br /> filter pack. Portland cement will be utilized to grout from the annular seal to surface grade. A SVE <br /> well construction diagram is depicted in Figure 5 and 5A. <br /> 4.3. SOIL VAPOR EXTRACTION PIPING NETWORK <br /> A network of two-inch diameter, schedule 40 PVC piping will be installed in 6-inch wide by 12-inch <br /> deep trenches at the site. The PVC piping will be routed from each SVE well head to a vapor dropout <br /> drum; the vapor dropout drum will be directly connected to the vapor extraction system. A PVC ball <br /> valve will be installed at each SVE well head so that vapors can be drawn from each well <br /> independently. A plan of the proposed piping system is depicted in Figure 4. <br /> 4.4. SOIL VAPOR EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESIGN <br /> A catalatic destruction process utilizing an electric heated catalatic oxidizer vapor extraction system <br /> (VES) is proposed for extracted hydrocarbon vapors (Figure 6). The VES should be able to operate <br /> between 175 and 200 cubic feet per minute (eft). Soil vapors will be extracted fi•om the proposed <br /> configuration of extraction wells using a vacuum blower and routed to the catalatic oxidizer. <br /> -advanced GeoCnvironmenta4 Inc. <br />
