Treatment of FREON and Chlorinated Hydrocarbons Using VeruTEK’s S-ISCO Coelution Technology

Mon, 01 Jun 2009 11:21:08 GMT

Groundwater samples were collected from a former industrial manufacturing facility with moderate FREON-113 and
chlorinated hydrocarbon contamination. These samples were characterized to determine initial FREON-113 and other
volatile compound contamination levels prior to using in three laboratory tests:
• Test 1: No treatment (control)
• Test 2: Alkaline persulfate
• Test 3: Fe-EDTA Catalyzed Persulfate

Treatment of Pesticides/Herbicides Using VeruTEK’s S-ISCO Coelution Technology

Soil samples were collected from a farm with moderate pesticide contamination. These samples were characterized to determine initial pesticide contamination levels prior to using in three laboratory tests:
• Test 1: No treatment (control column)
• Test 2: Alkaline persulfate and VeruSOL™
• Test 3: Iron-activated persulfate with VeruSOL™
Each test contained the same amount of soil and groundwater. Each test also contained approximately the same amount of contaminants initially; the table and graph below demonstrate the effectiveness of S-ISCO in destroying pesticide contamination after just 7 days:

Verutek Technologies Clean Solutions for a Clean Environment

VeruTEK Technologies, Inc. (VTKT.OB) provides proprietary, patent-pending, green nanotechnology solutions for cleaning up the environment. The Company's S-ISCO™ and S-ESCO™ solutions treat soil contamination "in place" eliminating the need for costly excavation and enabling custom remedies for individual sites. VeruTEK works with environmental consulting ﬁrms, government agencies and large corporations such as manufacturers, chemical companies and railroads to implement site-speciﬁc remedies that are environmentally safe and non-intrusive to the nearby community. The Company's mission is to help create a sustainable environment for future generations.

Large-Scale Green Remediation Field Test

Wed, 27 May 2009 11:15:49 GMT

VeruTEK Technologies, Inc. (VeruTEK) performed a large-scale green remediation field test. The test focused on treatment of subsurface coal tar at a former Manufactured Gas Plant with VeruTEK's Coelution TechnologyTM, surfactant-enhanced in-situ chemical oxidation (S-ISCOTM). The test results exceeded expectations. Greater than 4 times the test designed soil contamination was destroyed and the test achieved a sustainable reduction in groundwater contamination.

Innovative Treatment of Non-Aqueous Phase Liquids (NAPLS) Using Surfacant-Enhanced In-Sito Chemical Oxidation (SISCO ®)

Thu, 21 May 2009 11:14:21 GMT

Traditional ISCO methods have had limited success in degrading non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) because of mass transfer limitations controlling the rate of dissolution of NAPL constituents into groundwater. In Situ Chemical Oxidation (ISCO) reactions predominantly take place in the aqueous phase in the subsurface. Treatability studies andfield verification pilot-studies have been conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of a new type of Coelution Technology®, Surfactant-Enhanced.

Surfactant Enhanced In-Situ Chemical Oxidation Treatment of MGP Contaminants

Mon, 18 May 2009 11:11:51 GMT

In-situ chemical oxidation has been shown to be an effective approach for treating volatile organics compounds (VOCs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in lightly contaminated soil and groundwater at former manufactured gas plant (MGP) sites.

Surfactant Enhanced In Situ Chemical Oxidation (S-ISCO)

According to USEPA (2004), Cleaning up the Nation's Waste Sites, an estimated 294,000 contaminated sites will need to be cleaned up. The estimated cost to clean up these sites is about $209 billion. Many of these sites contain Non Aqueous Phase Liquids (NAPLs), which VeruTEK's technology specifically remedies. NAPL may be dense or light with respect to the density of water, approximately 1.0 gm/ml at 25º deg. C.

Green technologies for environmental cleanup

Thu, 14 May 2009 11:08:33 GMT

Green technologies for environmental cleanup provide unique opportunities for green job creation, enhancement of the health and well‐being of the nation. This stimulus would not only provide dollars for cleanup of environmental contamination on federal lands and facilities, but for Superfund Sites, our nation's vast legacy of industrial contamination.

VeruTEK Technologies Completes Another In Place Remediation of Soils, and Groundwater at a Site Contaminated with Chlorinated Solvents

Wed, 13 May 2009 10:56:41 GMT

VeruTEK Technologies Inc. (VTKT.OB), an international environmental technologies company, announced today that it has successfully completed an in‐place remediation of
contaminated soils and groundwater at a legacy site of a Fortune 500 client using its proprietary Surfactant‐Enhanced In Situ Chemical Oxidation (S‐ISCO™).

This environmentally friendly, green and safe remedial approach allows a complete or near‐complete remediation of subsurface soils and groundwater.

Verutek Technologies, Inc. - Green Technologies for Environmental Remediation

Tue, 12 May 2009 10:48:15 GMT

The development of green technologies for environmental remediation has now advanced to a stage where site‐specific solutions are being developed based on contaminant chemistry, geologic particle‐size distribution and stratigraphy, and costs. The theory and practice of plant surfactant‐oxidant chemistry is being used to develop green technologies that compete cost‐wise with excavation/landfilling while providing more complete remediation and safer remedies.
