Mons - full scale BTEX soil and groundwater remediation

Mons is one of many Greensoils projects at petrol station sites. A combined SVE and P&T system is operated to treat residual BTEX and TPH contamination in saturated soil and groundwater. The residual contamination is mainly present at the site border and underneath the public road.
