KEYWORDSsurface water and groundwater, Quality of natural systems 
KEYWORDS TYPEMethodology 
MARKET NEED TAILORED
  • Environment protection policies
  • Protection of water resources
  • Rehabilitation of contaminated areas
 
OUTPUT DESCRIPTION

Direct quantifiable results:

• a coherent and rigorous characterization and assessment system of groundwater quality;

• define the parameters that determine vulnerability to pollution of groundwater resources;

• establish parametres, ranking their importance, needed to characterize polluted aquifer layers: hydrogeological, hydraulic, chemical, biological;

• establish feasibility criteria to define levels and techniques of remediation;

• define the criteria necessary in selecting and sizing a local system of addressing groundwater quality to reduce chemical consumption by using modern new methods, of biotechnology and bioremediation, of natural attenuation of hazardous chemical compounds concentrations present in the groundwater

 
STATE OF DEVELOPMENT
  • Small scale pilot stand (laboratory)
  • Feasibility study
 
INNOVATIVE ASPECTS AND ADVANTAGES
  • Solutions for water protection is contaminated with oil products
  • Economic partnership using the results to ensure reduction of groundwater pollution within the studied sites
  • Application of technically and economically efficient Solutions
 
INTELLECTUAL/INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
  • Shared between partners.
  • Opportunities for collaboration on a contract basis within the Technical University of Civil Engineering Bucharest.
 
TRANSFERABILITY

The results are applicable in any area where groundwater is contaminated with oil products

 
POTENTIAL USERS/CLIENTS
  • Environmental authorities
  • Water Management Administrations
  • Economic units related to contaminated aquifer with oil products
 
 Estimation of risks
EVALUATION OF RISKS FOR OUTPUT USERS

Low risks because the output it is a methodology which identifying the appropriate solution for remediation of historical pollution

ECONOMICAL RISKS? ?
TECHNICAL RISKSApplication on other sites involves analysis of the compatibility parameters involved in remedial process
