1 In-Situ Thermal Treatment of Fractured Rock Ralph S. Baker, Ph.D. Chairman and Chief Scientist Gorm Heron, Ph.D. Chief Technology Officer TerraTherm, Inc.
2 About TerraTherm, Inc. TCH at a recently completed site in USEPA Reg. 2 TerraTherm, a US-based company, is the only thermal vendor offering all 3 of the major methods of subsurface heating, TCH, SEE and ERH/ET-DSP. At > 35 consecutive projects since 2002 on four continents, TerraTherm has met all remedial goals upon completion. 2
3 TerraTherm What We Do Sites with environmental liability and NAPL source zones Pioneer Midler Ave. Site, Syracuse, NY 3
4 Cleanup Standard (mg/kg) PCE < 5.60 TCE < 2.80 VC < 0.80 t-1,2-dce < 1.20 TVOC <10.40 ALL ACHIEVED Largest of the 3 Target Treatment Zones (TTZs) 11/28/2007 Home Improvement Store built adjacent to the TTZ 4
5 Contaminant Mass Removal Mass removal from thermal sites (by TerraTherm staff): >1,340,000 kg contaminants: Chlorinated solvents Creosote/PAHs Coal tar Oils PCBs Dioxins
6 Example Source Area DNAPL and VOC Distribution Fill Sand/silt Clay or Till Gravel/weathered rock aquifer, v>0.3 m/d (>1 ft/d) Fractured bedrock 6
7 Heating Methods Thermal Conduction Heating* (TCH)/In Situ Thermal Desorption* (ISTD) - Heating governed by thermal conductivity Comparison ElectroThermal-Dynamic Stripping Process * (ET-DSP )/Electrical Resistance Heating (ERH) - Heating governed by electrical conductivity Steam-Enhanced Extraction* (SEE) - Heating governed by hydraulic conductivity *Offered by TerraTherm 7
8 Applicability TCH* - Heating governed by thermal conductivity (f~3); Wide range of target temperatures; Low to moderate permeability settings Comparison ERH* - Heating governed by electrical conductivity (f~200); B.P. of water; Low to moderate permeability settings SEE* - Heating governed by hydraulic conductivity (f~10 6 ); B.P. of water; High permeability settings *Offered by TerraTherm, Inc. 8 8
9 Vapor Pressure vs. Temperature ERH, SEE, TCH TCH 500 Vapor Pressure (mm Hg) Temperature ( C) Vapor pressures increase exponentially during heating 9
10 TCE Volatilization, Pore Scale 700,000 ppm TCE possible in vapor phase in pore spaces near NAPL at >80 C 700,000 ppm TCE (LaChance 2014) 10
11 Applicable Technologies in Each Zone SEE/TCH/ ERH/ET-DSP Fill Sand/silt TCH/ERH/ET-DSP Clay or Till SEE TCH, ERH, ET-DSP? Gravel/weathered rock aquifer, v>0.3 m/d (>1 ft/d) Fractured bedrock 11
12 Challenge of Removing CVOCs from Fractured Rock COCs present in matrix Advection-Dispersion Mass In Fracture distribution: C T S = ρ Diffusion into Matrix g.w. velocity ( Kd b w a b ρ + φ + H ' φ )? Fracture-dominated flow Unknown maximum depth 12
13 Thermal in Rock Heat matrix and fractures to boiling temperatures Ensure steam capture and extraction co-located heating and extraction wells Match heating technology for matrix with rock properties Porosity, permeability Resistivity Ensure heating of fracture zones 13
14 SEE at Edwards AFB Site 61, CA Fractured granite (quartz monzonite) 14
15 SEE at Edwards AFB Site 61, CA 15
16 Edwards AFB Electrical Resistance Tomography (ERT) Data Planes during SEE VEA-4 VEA-2 VEA-5 VEA-3 VEA-1 It is difficult to heat fractured rock with steam alone 16
17 Is Resistivity Low Enough for ERH/ ET-DSP to be Applicable in Rock? 600 Volt limit for low voltage permits Typical applied voltages V Near surface step potential limitations (Health & Safety) For deep sites, can apply higher voltages Each site has a maximum voltage which can be safely used and permitted Most sites: 600 V Required soil resistivity: < 500 & m 17
18 Electrical Resistivity Palacky (1987) Implications: Solid bedrock in itself cannot be heated using ERH it is too resistive More porous rock need to be wet 18
19 TCH: Thermal Conduction Heating Applicable to Virtually All Rock Types 400 C C 100 t 2 t 1 Heater Distance t 1,2 = temperature progression over time Heater 19

31 Summary, SC Case Study Rock heats even easier than overburden (less water and porosity) Extremely low post-tch concentrations TCH effective in heating and treating DNAPL in crystalline rock 31
32 Data Needs: Collection and Analysis of Rock Samples Ascertain pre- vs. post-thermal COCs in rock matrix, with distance from fractures ESTCP Project ER200715, NAWC, E. Trenton, NJ 32

34 TCH at SRSNE Superfund Site, Southington, CT 0.7 ha (1.7 acres) 36,000 m3 (47,000 cy) Overburden and upper 1.5 m (5 ft) of fractured rock, in operation Co-Located heater and vacuum extraction borings 34
35 Conclusions Fractured rock sites are very different Select thermal technology based on site conditions TCH is the most reliable technology for heating fractured rock Use TCH in combination with SEE when necessary (high groundwater flux) ERH may also work in wet porous rock Ensure that vapors are captured 35
