Funded Activity Summary

Remediation of groundwater using permeable reactive barriers. Permeable reactive barriers are passive subsurface installations that remove contamination from groundwater as it flows through a reactive substrate. This project will develop new permeable reactive barriers that will benefit the nation by building skills and knowledge in an area of growth in Australian industry, namely the rehabilitation of industrial lands and the protection and remediation of Australia's critical groundwater sources. The project is aimed at remediating an industrially contaminated site in the Hunter Valley, New South Wales, thereby contributing to the environmental improvement of that region. The technology developed will have wide application to other sites, both nationally and internationally.
