Soil Remediation With Ozone

Key Benefits of Soil Remediation with Ozone:

  • Low capital equipment costs
  • Minimal site disturbance during installation
  • Low on-site profile
  • Low operating costs
  • In-situ destruction of targeted components

  • Rapid decrease of contaminant mass and concentration in soil and water - impressive results may be seen in weeks
  • No vapor control necessary - contaminants are destroyed rather than transferred from one phase to another
  • Clean reaction - no hazardous by-product formation. Micro-bubble size and means of introduction into the interstitial spaces of the formation ensures maximum contact with contaminant.
  • Micro-bubbles act to extract VOCs from groundwater and soil pores which reduces soil oxidative demand common to liquid oxidants
  • Contaminants Destroyed by Ozone

    Key Ozone Features:


    12 times more soluble than oxygen in water
    Moves easily through the soil
    Produced on-site, no need for hazardous chemical transportation or storage
    Most powerful oxidizer available
    Complex organics break down to carbon dioxide or less toxic molecules
    Breaks down to oxygen which increases DO levels
