Aerobic Bioremediation Application and Reaction <br /> ORC Advanced(M is usually delivered to the subsurface by pressure injection using direct push <br /> methods. Injection of ORC Advancedg through wells may be achieved, however the well may <br /> experience residual product and required cleaning. ORC Advanced® is supplied to the environment <br /> (soil and ground water) as liquid slurry which interacts with ground water and then releases a <br /> patented formulation of phosphate-intercalated magnesium peroxide . <br /> The phosphate-intercalated magnesium peroxide release supplies up to 17% of its weight as <br /> molecular oxygen. The available oxygen is then utilized by indigenous microbial populations to <br /> naturally degrade contaminants into harmless end products such as carbon dioxide and water. <br /> According to the Regenesis MSDS, ORC Advanced® has the degradation product of calcium <br /> hydroxide, an inorganic compound that does not cause biotic degradation or have a potential for <br /> bioaccumulation. However, the weak soluble precipitates carbonate and sulfate may be produced <br /> through abiotic degradation, pH in the injection area is typically raised above 10, but is rapidly <br /> neutralized in dilution. The ORC Advancedg MSDS also includes information regarding the <br /> breakdown and reactivity of ORC Advanced® is included in Appendix C. <br /> 2.2.2 . Aerobic Bioremediation Reduction Feasibility and Background Sample Collection <br /> Existence of a microbial population at the site is currently unknown. AGE proposes to collect <br /> representative soil samples from proposed RegenOxTM injection borings near wells MW-9 and <br /> VEW-2 and analyzed by a CDPH-certified laboratory for microbial and physicochemical properties <br /> as follows: <br /> • pH and SC; <br /> • Chloride, phosphate, nitrate, nitrite, sulfate, dissolved iron (soluble iron), manganese, <br /> potassium calcium, sodium, sulfide and carbon dioxide; <br /> a Alkalinity including carbonate, bicarbonate and hydroxide; <br /> • Total organic content (TOC), chemical oxidation demand (COD), biological oxygen demand <br /> (BODS) and total oxygen demand (TOD); <br /> • Methane and ethane/ethene; <br /> • Oxygen reduction potential (ORP), dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, electrical conductivity, total <br /> hardness ; <br /> • Heterotrophic organisms and selective (gasoline/diesel) degrader organisms; <br /> Advanced GeoEnvironmental, Inc. <br />
