U.S. EPA Comments

General Comment*

1. The SCOU draft Feasibility Study Report should carry Alternative 1 (No-Action), Alternative V and Alternative VIthrough evaluation against the nine evaluation criteria. These Alternatives were selected because: (a) Alternative 1 is a No-Action alternative and required to be carried through as a baseline, and (b) Alternatives V and VI include active remediation oflandfilled waste in Cells 6 and 12.

RESPONSE: Comment acknowledged.

2. Although costs presented are included for discussion purposes only, costs presented for each alternative inAppendix C should be identical to costs presented for the same alternative In the text. Several discrepancies exist and shouldbe corrected.

RESPONSE:Study (FS).

The costs and backup data (in the appendix) will be consistent in the Draft Feasibility

Specific Comments

Page 8 Paragraph 2, Section 3.2.1.1, Cover A - Synthetic Cover.Alternative V includes the use of Cover A. Cover A does not meet the Wisconsin Administrative Codes [NR 504.07or NR 181.44(13)]. Cover A consists of a 1-foot thick compacted clay layer. The code required a 2-foot clay layer.Alternative V may continue to be considered If the performance of the 1-foot thick compacted clay layer can befurther verified.

RESPONSE: Although Cover A does not meet the minimum requirements of clay thickness for RCRASubtitle D (NR 504.07) or RCRA Subtitle C, the cover may be as effective as the other covers optionsbecause of the efficiency of the synthetic cover. As shown in Table 1 (Tech Memo 9A), Cover A is veryeffective in reducing Infiltration to about 1000 cubic feet per year and is virtually equivalent to Cover Cin terms of infiltration reduction.

P1ILA-Page 10 Table 1, Summary of Cost Effectiveness of the Capping Alternatives.

The U.S. EPA Hydraulic Evaluation of Landfill Performance (HELP) model should be used to estimate the infiltrationrate for the current landfill covers. The Infiltration rate for the current conditions would serve as a comparisonbetween proposed covers and existing conditions. K H were to be determined that a proposed cover provides nomore protection than the current cover, then this would be a basis for eliminating the proposed cover.

RESPONSE: Due to the fact that the existing cover thickness and consistency varies across the site,it is difficult to determine a precise value of current infiltration through the cover. Using extreme cases,the infiltration may vary between 92,000 to 532,000 cubic feet per year. An average value may be460,000 cubic feet per year (Table to follow).

Page 13 Paragraph 2, Section 3.2.5.1, Purpose. jFurther discussion detailing the landfill gas extraction system monitoring program should be Included. For example,sampling intervals, duration of sampling, contaminants to be sampled and the permissible limits./The cost shouldbe calculated and added to all alternatives using the monitoring program.

RESPONSE: Additional details regarding landfill gas extraction system monitoring will be includedin the draft FS. (see Section 5.2.5.1, 3rd paragraph)

Page 26 Paragraph 1, Section 5.1.1, Description.The text states that pulsed extraction of the landfill gas may be effective for approximately two years. Furtherexplanation and/or calculations substantiating this estimate should be included within the document.

RESPONSE: The two year estimate was used because It will take approximately two years for thecombined effects of the cover system and extraction system to dry the waste enough to reduce orhinder methane generation. Further explanation of a two-year demonstration will be provided in thedraft FS. (see Section 7.2.6.4)

page 26 Paragraph 2, Section 5.1.1, Description.The first sentence states that runoff from the landfill drains into nearby ponds or streams. This statement is partiallyIncorrect. Runoff may drain into Badflsh Creek but may not drain into nearby ponds. This statement should becorrected.

RESPONSE: The draft FS will not refer to ponds In Section 7.1.1.

" The leakage fraction allows che model co simulate leaking syntheticliners. Leakage fraction is defined as the fraction of the horizontal area ofsoil through which percolation is. occurring under the leaking synthetic liner.

Brown et al. (1987) conducted laboratory experiments and developed pre-dictive equations to quantify leakage rates through various size holes throughsynthetic liners over soil. They assumed a uniform vertical percolation rateequal to the saturated hydraulic conductivity through a circular cross-sectional area of the soil liner' directly beneath the hole. They developed .predictive equations for the radius of this flow cross section as a functionof hole size, depth of leachate ponding and saturated hydraulic conductivityof the soil. They found that this radius of saturated flow was significantlygreater than the radius of the hole in the synthetic liner. Tor this report,the cross-sectional area of saturated flew was multiplied by the number ofholes per unit area of synthetic liner to compute the synthetic liner leakagefraction. Figure 5 presents these results. This figure provides guidance inchoosing synthetic liner leakage fractions for landfill modelling given a spe-cific level of synthetic liner degradation such as number of openings per unitarea or average spacing between openings.

•. »Dear Mr. Wilk and Mr. Schmoller:

The purpose of this letter is to inform you that in the near future data and information 'will be available which has potential benefits for the City Disposal site and associatedRI/FS. __

Currently, Waste Management of Wisconsin (WMWI) is conducting treatability studiesfor the groundwater operable unit at the Hagen Farm Landfill site in Stoughton,Wisconsin. Hagen Farm is approximately 10 miles southeast of Qty Disposal. Recordsindicate that similar transporters and generators used both City Disposal and HagenFarm. As a result, the contaminants found in the groundwater at both sites are similar.For this reason the conclusions regarding groundwater treatability at Hagen Farm couldpotentially be applied to City Disposal.

WMWI has recently submitted City Disposal groundwater data to the consultantconducting the treatability studies for Hagen Farm. Their review of the data supportsthe premise that the Hagen Farm studies can be applied to City Disposal. If applied,the Groundwater Operable Unit Feasibility Study for City Disposal can be submittedwith a greater certainty that the remedy USEPA and WDNR selects will be effective.

WMWI is hereby requesting that USEPA and WDNR allow the Hagen FarmTreatability Studies to be applied at Ciw Disposal. By doing so, however, it should berecognized that ihe deliverable Technical Memorandum No. 9B, Detailed Analysis of

Alternatives (GCOU) will be delayed until September 1991 (it was originally scheduledfor July 25,1991). *Hie delay is necessary for the Hagen Farm treatability studies to becompleted, the data compiled and the final report issued. However, WMWI feels thatthe benefits to the City Disposal project and subsequent remedy selection warrant tfieschedule delay.

I have attached for your review the Hagen Farm Treatability Study Work Plan. Afteryou review it, please call me at 708--409-0700 with your comments and indicate whetheror not you approve of WMWTs proposal.

Re: City Disposal Corp. Landfill Technical Memorandum 3a| Technical Memorandum 9t>.

Dear Mr. Smith

I The United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) hascompleted its review of Technical Memorandum 3a of the RemedialInvestigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) for the City DisposalCorporation Landfill "Superfund" site.

'Based on the review of Technical Memorandum 3a, the U.S. EPA-finds that the information available for this site is generallysufficient to continue with the drafting of an EndangeraentAssessment, Remedial Investigation Report and Feasibility Reportsfor the site. One aspect of the project that needs furtheranalysis concerns the direction of ground water flow at the easternportion of the site. Specific comments concerning this aspect areincluded in the enclosed comments from our oversight contractor andthe Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. The draft RemedialInvestigation Report should address the enclosed comments.

The u.S* EPA is also in receipt to your June 11, letter concerningthe a treatability study being conducted at the Hagen Farm site andits relevance to this site. Your letter proposes that submittal toTechnical Memorandum 9b be delayed to September 1991 in order toinclude the results of this treatability study in TechnicalMemorandum 9b for this site. The U.S. EPA considers your proposalto hold merit and we shall be discussing your proposal as well asschedule revisions with you shortly.

SUBJECT: CITY DISPOSAL CORPORATION LANDFILL TREATABIIJTY MEMO

jSSS55 c90pggBg$g5Sgqgq$gSSSSSS^

I Per your request, the following memo analyzes treatment alternatives for City DisposalCorporation Landfill (CDCL) located in Dunn, Wisconsin. As pan of the Feasibility Studywork, alternatives for the remediation of contaminated groundwater will be analyzed. This

I memorandum evaluates the available groundwater analytical data and previous RI work to assess• groundwater quality and analyze treatment/remediation alternatives to provide data for use in the

. • Feasibility Study. . •

• !. The technical bases of this memorandum are supplied by the following documents:

I 1. "Technical Memorandum 3A for Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study, City DisposalCorporation Landfill, "P.E. LaMoreaux & Associates, April 1991 (including AppendicesG,H,andI).

^ 2. 'Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study Hagen Farm Site, Technical MemorandumI Number 1, "Warzyn Engineering, March 1989.

3. "Treatability Study Report, Hagen Farm Site", Waste Management of North America,• September 1991.

4. Correspondence with Peroxidation Systems, Inc. concerning chemical oxidation of CDCL

I groundwater, July - September 1991..

The attached Table 1 provides a comparison of groundwater* quality for the CDCL and Hagen

I Farm sites. The geometric means from groundwater/source characterization wells for the twosites are provided for different parameters. The CDCL data presented was determined by takingthe individual geometric averages from shallow groundwater wells in the two zones of

I contamination and taking a flow weighted average of the two zones (based on a 10 percent flowfrom Cell 6 and 90 percent flow from Cell 12). The following can be concluded from Table 1and other available RI/FS information:

Both site groundwaters have volatile organic contaminants with THF, ketones. (acetone, MEK), and toluene or xylehes as the most prevalent constituents.

4

Both site groundwaters have iron and manganese levels that exceed NR 140 PAL.However, the background groundwater at CDCL exceeds NR 140 PAL for ironand manganese.

The Hagen Farm site has substantially more contamination from semi-volatileorganic compounds than CDCL. Also, review of Hagen Farm and COCL RI/FSdocuments indicate that Hagen Farm has a higher concentration of organic* asmeasured by TOC/COD than CDCL.

\*~s Based on the similarities of the CDCL and Hagen Farm groundwater, as well as the similartypes of wastes accepted at the sties, the extensive treatabiiity study performed at Hagen Farmcan be extrapolated for analysis of CDCL. As determined in the Hagen Farm TreatabiiityStudy, there are four practical alternatives for successful CDCL groundwater treatment:

Metals Precipitation (by Chemical Precipitation) + Air Stripping + GACAdsorption

Metals Precipitation (by Air Oxidation) + GAC Adsorption

Metals Precipitation (by Air Oxidation) + Activated Sludge Treatment

Metals Precipitation (by Oxidation) 4- Chemical Oxidation

In the Hagen Farm Treatabiiity Study, all four alternatives were demonstrated to effectively treatthe groundwater. For CDCL groundwater, this also should be the case. However, there arerelative process advantages/disadvantages, as well as secondary process considerations toconsider for each alternative. Activated Sludge treatment of CDCL groundwater will requiresubstrate addition in order to keep the process stable. This is due to the low organic content(TOC) of CDCL groundwater. An activated sludge process would not readily allow pulsed orvariable groundwater pumping schemes. Also, given the complex hydrogeology of the CDCLsite, the secondary advantage of using activated sludge treatment in conjunction with in-situbioremediation is not present at CDCL, as it is with the Hagen Farm Site.

The GAC alternatives and chemical oxidation alternative for CDCL groundwater treatment allowfor use of pulsed or variable groundwater schemes. These processes are stable even with theanticipated reduction of organic constituent levels as site remediation progresses with time. Thepresences of the THF and ketones create process concerns for the GAC options. THF andketones are very weakly adsorbed on GAC due to their high solubility and small molecular size.The high solubility of these constituents limits the efficiency of air stripping. The removedorganics from

the gtoundwater are not destroyed, but rather adsorbed. A residual is .created with GACtreatment that requires off-site management, either by regeneration or land disposal. ChemicalOxidation is a preferred technology because it degrades the organic constituents into mineralizedcomponents (such as carbon dioxide). Although the presence of the THF and ketones affectsthe process, chemical oxidation destroys a very wide range of organic compounds.

Table 2 presents the design basis for CDCL groundwater treatment alternatives, and is based onthe process performance data from the Hagen Farm Study, vendor consultation, and projectedgroundwater quality for the CDCL site. Based on Table 2, preliminary construction andoperating cost estimates were developed for the different groundwater options.

Table 3 provides installed costs for the various options, while Table 4 presents operating costsfor treatment of CDCL groundwater. Activated sludge treatment of CDCL groundwater has thehighest installed capital costs ($2,495,000) with the lowest total operating costs (fixed andvariable) of $717,000 per year. Granular Activated Carbon Treatment has the lowest installedcapital costs of the four options ($ 1,825,700) and a relatively high operating cost ($976,400 peryear). The Air Stripping/Granular Activated Carbon option would have an installed cost of$2,053,000, with a total operating cost of $1,066,000 per year for treatment of CDCLgroundwater. The higher operating cost for the Air Stripping/GAC option is a result of usingvapor phase carbon in conjunction with the air stripper. The .high operating costs for both theGAC and Air Stripping/GAC options are related to the low adsorption capacity of GAC for THFand ketones. Treatment utilizing chemical oxidation would require a facility with an installed.cost of $2,375,000 and a total operating cost of $928,400 per year. As contaminant levelsdecrease over time, the Chemical Oxidation and GAC options develop cost advantages (relativeto Activated Sludge Treatment) because less power and chemical reagents will be necessary.(Reagent and power costs are the highest variable costs for these options.)

Based on process cost and performance concerns, the following conclusion/recommendations aremade regarding treatment of CDCL groundwater:

The Air Stripping/GAC option is not recommended for the CDCL groundwatertreatment due cost and performance issues related to the solubility and lowadsorption tendencies of the principal contaminants of CDCL groundwater(namely the THF, ketones).

Treatment of CDCL groundwater with GAC only is not preferred again due tocost/process concerns related to groundwater contaminants.

Activated Sludge processing may be cost effective; however, process stabilityconcerns remain due to low organic substrate levels. Also, secondary benefits forthe activated sludge process that exist at the Hagen Farm site, such asincorporation of the process into in-situ bioremediation, are not present at theCity Disposal site because of CDCL's complex hydrogeology.

Chemical Oxidation is' recommended for treatment of CDCL groundwaterbecause: it is a destructive treatment technology, it will not be affected by the loworganic concentration in CDCL groundwater, it will reduce in operating costs asthe CDCL groundwater quality improves in time, and it can be operated in anintermittent manner to accommodate variable or pulsed groundwater pumping,

A pilot chenucal oxidation unit should be operated at the CDCL site to developoperating cost and design data. If pilot operation indicates substantially worsethan anticipated results, it is recommended that activated sludge be used atCDCL.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Hagen Farm Superfund Site, located in Stoughton, Wl, is a closed landfill in whichindustrial and municipal wastes had been previously disposed. The site is currentlyundergoing a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (Rl/FS) by Warzyn Inc., ofMadison, Wl, under contract to Waste Management of North America (WMNA).

Based on preliminary information, remediation of the Hagen Farm site would probablyinvolve three areas: the main disposal site; the contaminated groundwater; and soilsin the saturated zone. WMNA has indicated that the remediation of the main disposalarea will involve capping of the area and vapor extraction for the unsaturated (vadose)zone soils and waste for source control. Remediation mechanisms for thecontaminated groundwater and the saturated zone soils were evaluated.

A treatability study was performed by the Department of Research and Developmentof Chemical Waste Management (CWM) to evaluate various treatment technologies

and to assist U.S. EPA and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR)

in the selection of a proper treatment process for the remediation of contaminatedgroundwater and saturated soil at the Hagen Farm site. Two remedial alternativeswere investigated; pump and treat, and in-situ bioremediation.

In the pump and treat alternative, groundwater is pumped to the surface through aseries of recovery wells and is treated in a groundwater treatment plant prior todischarge to a receiving water or a POTW. This method will provide containment ofthe site as well as provide proper treatment and disposal of the contaminatedgroundwater.

In-situ bioremediation is a method involving not only groundwater treatment (pump

and treat) but also re injection of the treated groundwater back into the aquifer toI clean up the contaminated soil and groundwater in the saturated zone. Oxygen,

nutrients, and if necessary, microorganisms are added to the groundwater to promote

biological activity in the saturated subsurface to degrade organics in the soil.

The treatability study for the pump and treat alternative employed conventionaltechnologies used in water and wastewater treatment including metal precipitation,air stripping, aerobic biological treatment carbon adsorption, and UV/chemicaloxidation. The treatability study results from both raw groundwater and groundwaterspiked with various organics indicate that the groundwater can be effectively treatedby a system consisting of metals precipitation and activated sludge treatment. A 100gpm facility consisting of these unit operations, as well as influent/effluent storageand discharge would have a capital cost of $2,359,000, with a total processing costof List/gallon.

To evaluate the possibility of in-situ bioremediation for the Hagen Farm site, soil fromthe site was characterized for various physical, chemical and biological parameters toprovide background soil information since none was available. At the same time, bothsoil bioreactor and soil column studies were conducted to evaluate the biodegradabilityof the organic contaminants in the Hagen Farm soil and to develop correlation on therate and the extent of biodegradation between a bioreactor condition and a subsurface

(column) environment.

'The characterization results for the saturated zone soil sample used for the treatabilitystudies showed little or no contamination with any of the 126 compounds on theTarget Compound List. Although this soil sample may or may not be representativeof the site soils, the results indicate that little or no water-insoluble and recalcitrantorganics are present. Most of the organics in soil are probably the ones found in thegroundwater which are biodegradable.

tf saturated zone soils are not contaminated, then only groundwater would needremediation. However, if the site saturated zone soils are contaminated, thenbioremediation is a potential methodology for soils treatment based on the followingobservations: the oxygen uptake rate (OUR) was high for the reactor receiving

1.0 INTRODUCTIONb

The Hagen Farm Superfund Site, located in Stoughton, Wisconsin, is owned by WasteManagement of Wisconsin, Inc (WMWI). The site is now undergoing RemedialInvestigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) for remediation and eventual closure. WarzynInc., of Madison, Wl, is conducting the RI/FS.

The main disposal area of the Hagen Farm site is a 5.5 acre landfill which disposal ofa variety of industrial and municipal wastes including paint sludge, grease, and plasticsheeting. The site is located in an area composed primarily of silty sand and gravelwith a zone of clay-like material in the southeastern area of the site. Bedrock islocated at depths between 46 and 80 feet below the surface. The minimumseparation between refuse and the groundwater was observed to be 5 feet.Groundwater appears to be primary transport media for contaminants at the site.

Based upon information prepared by Warzyn Inc., in the June 1990 Conceptual SiteModel RI/FS report, it appears that contaminants in the wastes disposed of on-site

have already migrated to the underlying site soils and groundwater. The reportindicates that organic compounds (primarily petrochemicals and tetrahydrofuran) arethe dominant contaminants found in the groundwater, with a smaller number of

. inorganics (metals) also present.

The Remediai Design/Remedial Action (RD/RA) for the Hagen Farm site source controlhas begun and involves waste consolidation; capping of the landfill, and in-situ vaporextraction. Remediation mechanisms for contaminated groundwater and saturatedzone soils have yet to be determined. At the request of WMNA and the approval ofUSEPA and WDNR, the Department of Research and Development (R&D) of Chemical

Waste Management, Inc. (CWM) investigated the feasibility of various treatmentoptions to remove the contaminants of concern in the groundwater and in thesaturated zone soil. WMNA personnel have indicated that two remedial alternativesare to be considered for the remediation of groundwater and saturated zone soil at

the Hagen Farm site. They are:

1. Groundwater pump-and-treat method2. In-situ bioremediation

In the pump-and-treat method, groundwater is pumped to the surface through a seriesof recovery wells and is treated in a treatment plant prior to discharge to receivingwaters or a Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) (see Figure 1.1). Theadvantages of pump-and-treat include containment of the site and proper treatmentand disposal of the contaminated groundwater. However, in many cases, this methodmay not treat the soil if that soil contains insoluble organics. Generally, the treatmentprocess employs conventional technologies used in wastewater treatment, such asair stripping, aerobic biological treatment, granular activated carbon (G AC) adsorption,UV/chemical oxidation.

The second remedial alternative, in-situ bioremediation, would involve reinjection ofthe treated groundwater back into the aquifer in order to remediate the contaminatedsoil and groundwater in the saturated zone (see Figure 1.2). Oxygen, nutrients, andif necessary, microorganisms, would be added to the groundwater to promote the

biological activity and degrade the insoluble organic contaminants in the soil.

In-situ bioremediation has the advantage of being able to treat the subsurface soilwithout excavation. However, its success depends not only upon the biodegradability

of the organics in soil, but also upon the site hydrogeology. In fact, the sitehydrogeology will significantly influence the oxygen and nutrient availability to themicroorganisms, and is thus important to the success of the project. Therefore, fieldtesting of this alternative is a necessary step prior to full-scale implementation.

Although site information indicates that two classes of spent nonhalogenated solventwastes (F003 and F005) were disposed on site, the U.S. EPA has indicated that the

groundwater will not be considered hazardous by the multi-source hazard code F039(See Appendix A for correspondence regarding this matter). Therefore, residuals fromany treatment or remediation will not be classified as hazardous by the F039 code.

This report describes the potential treatment processes for remediation of Hagen Farm11 groundwater and saturated zone soil, justifies and selects the processes analyzed for' the treatability study, and discusses the procedures and results of the treatabilityI study.

3.0 TREATABIL1TY STUDY APPROACHThis section analyzes potential treatment options for contaminated groundwater andsaturated zone soils, and provides the basis for unit operations studied in theTreatability Study.

3.1 Pump-and-Treat (Groundwater Treatment)Based on the initial groundwater characterization provided by Warzyn Inc., (see Table3.1), the contaminants potentially requiring treatment in the groundwater are generallycharacterized as organiccompounds (volatile organic compounds [VOCs], semi-volatileorganic compounds) and metals.

3.1.1 Organic Compound Treatment Processes DescriptionThe most commonly used processes for the treatment of organic compounds includeair stripping, granular activated carbon (GAC), ultraviolet (UV)/chemical oxidation, andbiological treatment. Each of these processes will be discussed in the following

paragraphs.

[I 3.1.1.1 Air StrippingRemoval of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is usually accomplished by air

I K_ stripping. In air stripping, organic compounds dissolved in the liquid phase aretransferred to the vapor phase by the increase of the contact area between liquid and

| stripping gas, which is generally air. This process is most effective for compoundsthat are volatile and can be stripped into the vapor phase easily. The counter-current

I packed column is the most common type of air stripper. In the counter-current

r packed column, contaminated groundwater is pumped to the top of the column,I. distributed across its diameter and allowed to flow downward, while air is

I simultaneously forced upward through the column. The exhaust air from the process-i. may require treatment with vapor phase carbon or catalytic oxidation prior toi discharge.

Air stripping cannot remove nonvolatile organic compounds or volatile compounds that

are very water soluble. For example, volatiles such as toluene and xylenes are easilystripped while 2-butanone (MEK) and tetrahydrofuran (THF) are not. Other treatmentprocesses, such as GAC adsorption, are generally used in conjunction with airstripping for removal of these compounds.

3.1.1.2 Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) AdsorptionGAC is an effective treatment process for removing organics from various waste-waters because GAC adsorbs a wide variety of organic compounds. Many of thevolatile and semi-volatile organics in Table 3.1 are adsorbable by GAC. However, thetwo main constituents, 2-butanone (MEK) and tetrahydrofuran (THF), are not asreadily adsorbable as other constituents like phenol. Adsorbability is related to thecompound's solubility, molecular size, and affinity for the carbon. Thus, the costeffectiveness of GAC depends on its adsorption capacity of the specific organiccompounds such as THF. GAC column testing of actual waste-water is necessary toevaluate the efficiency of the process to develop design parameters.

*

3.1.1.3 Chemical Oxidation

Chemical oxidation uses strong oxidizing agents to react and destroy organics in

groundwater. Among the generally considered oxidizing agents are chlorine, ozone,hydrogen peroxide, chlorine dioxide, and potassium permanganate. In most cases,ultraviolet (UV) light is used in conjunction with the oxidizing agents (such as

hydrogen peroxide and/or ozone) to improve the oxidation process efficiency.

Recent technological innovations have increased the applications for chemicaloxidation. However, chemical oxidation/UV treatment still has several limitations.

The process is very slow on alcohols, ketones and aliphatic compounds and saturatedvolatiles. In addition, the high cost of the chemicals used and the problems withscaling and blinding of the UV lamps have yet to be resolved. The groundwater atHagen Farm contains 2-butanone (MEK), phenol and benzyl alcohol which are difficult

to treat by UV, and also contains considerable amounts of iron, calcium, andmagnesium which can cause scaling on the lamps. A treatability will evaluate thefeasibility of UV/H2O2 treatment.

3.1.1.4 Biological TreatmentBiological oxidation processes are widely used in the treatment of municipal andIndustrial wastewaters because of their ability to treat a large variety of water-solubleorgantcs and the cost effectiveness of the process. Given the nature of thecontamination of Hagen Farm groundwater (low concentration of substrate and high

removal requirements), aerobic biological processes would provide the best results.

The most widely used aerobic technology is the activated sludge process (ASP).Process modifications, such as adding powdered activated carbon (PAC) have beenused with ASP to enhance its performance with certain wastewaters. However, giventhe low affinity of certain constituents in Hagen Farm groundwater (namely tetra-

hydrofuran [THF], xylene, and ethylbenzene) to be adsorbed onto carbon, it is notbelieved that the use of PAC will dramatically improve the ASP process. Otherprocess modifications for the aerobic technology are the fixed-film reactors, in whichbiomass attaches to the surface of packing material and forms thin films.

Anaerobic biological processes are not generally capable of removing organics to verylow levels and will not be considered for this study.

3.1.2 Metals TreatmentDepending on the discharge requirements for the groundwater (NPDES, POTW, orrecharge), it may be necessary to remove metals from the Hagen Farm groundwater.Also, it may be necessary to remove metals (and solids) from a wastewater toimprove the efficiency of organic treatment processes. Groundwater metals data forHagen Farm are provided in Table 3.2. The metals which might cause treatment/discharge concerns detected in the initial characterization of Hagen Farm groundwater

include iron and manganese. Commonly used treatment methods for these metals arechemical precipitation and air oxidation precipitation, ion exchange, and reverseosmosis.

3.1.2.1 Metals PrecipitationMetals removal can be accomplished through hydroxide, sufide, carbonate orphosphate precipitation. The most common form is hydroxide precipitation, whichtypically uses chemicals such as lime or sodium hydroxide. Lime and sodiumhydroxide raise the pH, forming relatively insoluble metal hydroxides which can beremoved by settling and filtration.

For removal of manganese and iron, precipitation by air oxidation can also be used.In many groundwaters, the iron is normally all in the ferrous (Fe*2J form and themanganese is in the bivalent state (Mn+2). The ferrous (Fe*2) form and bivalentmanganese (Mn+2) form are soluble and readily converted to the more insoluble ferric(Fe*3) and quadrivalent manganese (Mn+4J salts through aeration. They can then be

removed in subsequent treatment processes such as sedimentation or filtration.

3.1.2.2 Ion Exchange

Ion exchange is a process in which ions, held by electrostatic forces to chargedfunctional groups on the surface of a solid are exchanged for ions or similar charge

in a solution in which the solid is immersed. Ion exchange is used for ultra highquality water treatment, primarily as a secondary or tertiary metals treatment processfor water. Synthetic resins are presently used for most Ion exchange applications.The potentially large flow and relatively high metals concentrations of the Hagen Farmgroundwater make the use of ion exchange uneconomical.

3.1.2.3 Reverse Osmosis

Reverse osmosis (RO) is a process in which water is separated from dissolved salts

In solution by filtration through a semi-permeable membrane at a pressure greater thanthe osmotic pressure caused by the dissolved salt in water. RO has the advantage ofremoving dissolved solids such as chloride and metals that are less selectivelyremoved by other techniques. RO's principal disadvantages are that it is not designedspecifically to remove metals, it generates waste brine that requires further processingprior to disposal, and it is expensive. Since the predominant metals in Hagen Farmgroundwater can be removed by less expensive processes, RO was not considered forHagen Farm groundwater treatment.

3.1.3 Groundwater Treatment Technology SummaryBased upon the above available treatment technologies, the following conclusions canbe drawn regarding the treatment of Hagen Farm groundwater:

1. The potentially viable groundwater organic treatment technologies for HagenFarm include air stripping, GAC adsorption, biological treatment, andUV/chemical oxidation.

2. Metals precipitation by chemical addition or air oxidation may be needed to

remove Iron, manganese, arsenic, barium and lead from Hagen Farmgroundwater.

11 The treatability study performed analyzes these technologies for their treatmentefficiency and economic viability.n3.2 In-situ Bioremediation

|J_ There are a variety of remediation options for the clean-up of contaminatedgroundwater/soil which include such general technologies as biological,

L_ physical/chemical, immobilization, thermal, and in-situ treatment. Even for in-situ

. treatment of soils alone, there are various technologies available including vapor

extraction, soil flushing, in-situ solidification/stabilization, in-situ vitrification, and

bioremediation. Selection of treatment options depends on various factors includingsite characterization data such as types of contaminants and their concentrations,types of soils and corresponding hydrogeological conditions, and applicability and costeffectiveness of the technologies. In-situ bioremediation has the advantage over asimple pump-and-treat system because it has the potential to remove more of theInsoluble organlcs adsorbed to the soil.

Soils at the Hagen Farm site which have been in contact with contaminatedgroundwater from the* disposal area may contain a variety of the organics. Some

, preliminary soil tests had been performed on selected Hagen Farm soil borings (seeWarzyn report number 13452 - RI/FS Technical Memorandum - Number 1, 3/89).

However, the results were limited to only soil moisture, type of soil, etc. Evaluationof the available soils characterization data indicate that in-situ bioremediation appearsto be a viable treatment option based upon the following facts regarding the Hagen

Farm site:

1. The depths of the soils in the saturated zones, which range from a minimum of5 ft to a maximum of 46 to 80 ft below surface, dictate the use of in-situtreatment technology.

2. The major contaminants in the groundwater (and possibly the soils) include

volatiles such as 2-butanone (MEK) and THF and semivolatiles such as phenolwhich are all very biodegradable.

3. Preliminary soil permeability tests indicate a favorable soil hydraulic conductivity

| _ for the transfer of nutrients and oxygen and/or surfactants into the saturatedzone soils. In addition, soil flushing is not needed since pump and treat will

I. already provide flushing of the organics.

treatment system could possibly provide a source of bioaugmented, nutrientsupplemented water source for an in-situ treatment of the soils in the saturatedzone.

5. In-situ bioremediation, if applicable, is very cost effective, compared to othersoil remediation technologies.

Bioremediation processes are biological treatment processes that improve or stimulatethe metabolic capabilities of microbial populations to degrade organic residues. Theprocesses take into consideration the factors that affect microbial activity and modifythe existing conditions so that microbial degradation can occur. For example, ifinadequate nitrogen or phosphorus are available, such nutrients can be added toassure satisfactory microbial degradation. If the residues are too toxic, addition ofother chemicals or uncontaminated soil may reduce the toxicity to the point thatmicrobiat degradation can occur. If inadequate type or numbers of microorganismsare naturally present, acclimated organisms can be added.

Generally, in-situ soil bioremediation uses treated water to introduce bacterial culturedirectly into contaminated soils and aquifers. Nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) and

oxygen in the form of H202 are also added to provide the essential ingredients formicrobial biodegradation of organics in the subsurface. The site hydrogeology

I significantly affects the transfer and the availability of the nutrients and oxygen asL

well as the availability of microorganisms for the biodegradation of organics insaturated zone soils. A treatability study in the laboratory can only evaluate thepossibility of metals inhibition, the biodegradability of the organics, the requirement

for nutrients, and the need for the addition of bacterial cultures to enhancebiodegradation. It can not evaluate the site hydrogeology. Thus, field testing is anecessary step prior to full-scale implementation, if in-situ bioremediation is a viablealternative.

uII 4.0 TREATABIUTY STUDY PROTOCOL

This section describes the sampling, equipment operating and analytical procedures,as well as the quality assurance/quality control policy used during the performance ofthe treatability study. The treatability study involved investigation of the treatmentprocesses selected for consideration for remediation of groundwater and saturatedzone soil. Groundwater treatability work utilized both spiked and nonspiked (with sitetarget compounds) Hagen Farm samples. The soil treatment study was conductedusing screened nonspiked soils. The soil samples were not spiked for the followingreasons: (1) there was no previous contamination history upon which to determine thespiked concentration; and (2) it would not be appropriate to spike the soils with themajor organic compounds found in Hagen Farm groundwater (such as tetrahydrofuranand phenol) because these compounds are water soluble and would be treated in thegroundwater treatment scheme.

4.1 Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) Analytical Procedures

uIj^I]n[ I In^cder to ensure accurate, valid data, QA/QC procedures were used throughout the

Lsrvy. CWM has developed and implemented a QA/QC program to provide defensibleI data on a timely basis. All company laboratory and sampling personnel are required

to participate in this program. The CWM R&D laboratory performs instrument control

I ^ checks daily and uses quality control samples for instrumentation and wet chemistry. for bench scale process monitoring parameters. Samples were analyzed in accordancei^_ -^ with EPA Test Method for Evaluating Solid Waste (SW-846), Third Edition and

Standard Methods. 17th Edition.

Contract laboratories employed by CWM must also demonstrate quality controlpractices certified by CWM at least as stringent as CWM's program. EMS HeritageLaboratories, Inc., in Romeoville, Illinois was contracted for all nonroutine analyticalwork.

The groundwater quality varied widely during the treatability study. However, no

adjustment was made for the study because the fluctuation in groundwater qualitywas identical to the full-scale situation.

4.2 Pump and Treat with Non-Spiked GroundwaterSeveral bench scale studies were performed to investigate metal and organictreatment of the Hagen Farm groundwater. As mentioned in the previous sections,air stripping, carbon adsorption, biological treatment, U V/chemical oxidation and metalprecipitation were studied. A description of the procedures used in studying thesecandidate unit operations follow.

4.2.1 SamplingThe groundwater sampling, which was performed every two weeks for 14 weeks,produced 7 sets of samples. All samples were taken from Monitoring Well 22 byWarzyn Inc., personnel. During each sampling event, groundwater was pumped forabout 10 minutes before collection to allow water quality to stabilize. Two 40 mlsamples were collected for volatile organics analysis and 105 gallons were collected

for the treatability studies.

Seven 15-galIon buckets were used for each sampling. Each bucket was sealed withI . tape and placed inside a 30-gallon drum overpack for shipment. The overpacks were

filled with an absorbent material (com cobs) and shipped to CWM's Geneva ResearchI Center (GRC). The VOC samples were shipped in a cooler packed with ice packs and

accompanied the drum shipment.

4.2.2 Air StrippingI ! Groundwater underwent air stripping tests in a bench-scale packed tower air stripper

. as diagrammed in Figure 4.1. The packed tower stripper was filled with contaminatedl^_ groundwater and air was blown up through the packing in the tower. The design of

. the bench scale stripping test (size, packing type, height/width ratio, reactor/packing»,_ diameter ratio, and air/water flow ratio) enabled the scale-up of the results for the

design of a full-scale packed bed air stripper.

The inlet air flow rate to the air stripper was controlled at 20 cubic feet per hour (CFH)to the seven-liter glass reactor. The packing media in the bench-scale air stripper was5/8" pall rings with a specific surface area of 104 ft2/ft3. This resulted in a reactor/packing diameter ratio of about 10 to 1.

The performance of the stripper was evaluated over a range of 25 to 200 cubic feetof air to cubic feet of water. Each test lasted about 2 hours. The differencesbetween influent and effluent VOC concentrations were used to estimate the VOCsin the vapor phase and to design a vapor phase carbon unit. Samples were taken ofthe tower initially and after treatment and analyzed for VOCs (see Table 4.1 forspecific VOCs analyzed). Very little semi-volatile organic compounds were expected

to be removed by air stripping and thus were not analyzed.

11 4.2.3 Aqueous Phase Carbon AdsorptionUntreated groundwater from the Hagen Farm site was treated in a fixed-bed GAC

11 column as shown in Figure 4.2. Groundwater was applied at a constant rate to thetop of a 2-inch diameter reactor containing approximately 500 ml of GAC. The

I effluent was collected over the 1 week test period for each sample and analyzed for^ the VOCs, semi-VOCs, and inorganic compounds listed in Table 4.1. In addition, the

I initial and final samples were analyzed for the parameters listed in the TargetCompound List (Appendix B) as well as for alkalinity, chloride and sulfate. Theadsorptive capacity of the carbon was determined from the breakthrough curve datagenerated from the column study.

4.2.4 UV/Peroxide Oxidation

Groundwater from Hagen Farm site was treated in a bench-scale UV test apparatusas shown in Figure 4.3. Peroxide was added at a dosage of 500 mg/l to a reservoircontaining the groundwater to be tested. The feed pump was then started which

circulated the ground water through the UV reactor and back into the reservoir thusproviding continuous mixing of the feed tank. For certain tests, the groundwater pHwas adjusted to approximately 5 and catalyst in the form of ferrous ammonium sulfatewas added to promote chemical oxidation reaction.

For each test run, samples of tested groundwater were collected at predeterminedretention times and characterized for the VOC's and semi-VOC's listed in Table 4.1.

Samples from Hagen Farm were also sent to two UV/peroxide system vendors,

I PURUS, Inc. and Peroxidation System, Inc., for treatability testing. The results from^_s

these tests were used to provide cost information for a full scale system for HagenFarm groundwater treatment.

4.2.5 Biological TreatmentGroundwater was treated in a bench-scale continuous flow activated sludge biologicalreactor as shown in Figure 4.4. Air was supplied to a 6.4 liter reactor through an airdiffuser at the bottom. The reactor was operated for more than 12 weeks to evaluatethe treatability of the groundwater and to develop scale-up information for full-scaledesign. The effluent was analyzed for all the VOCs, semi-VOCs, and inorganiccompounds listed in Table 4.1. In addition, the initial and final samples were analyzedfor the parameters listed in the Target Compound List (Appendix B) as well as foralkalinity, chloride and sulfate.

4.2.6 Metal PrecipitationGroundwater was tested in a series of batch tests for metal removal as shown in

Figure 4.5. Samples were taken prior to and after treatment, and analyzed for metalcontaminants (see Table 4.1 for the list of metal constituents to be analyzed). Threeadditional metals (manganese, calcium and magnesium) were also analyzed. Twochemicals, sodium hydroxide and time, were used to form and precipitate insolublemetal salts. Chemical dosages were optimized during these tests to determine the

most effective dosage(s) of chemicals for metals removal.

In order to investigate iron and manganese removals by air oxidation, samples ofground water were purged with air. Samples were then taken at 15, 30, 45, 60, 75and 120 minutes of aeration time and analyzed for total suspended solids (TSS), pH,Iron, and manganese measurements.

4.3 Pump and Treat with Spiked Groundwater*

Since groundwater quality can vary widely from one location and onft sample toanother, the groundwater sample used for the treatability study might not reflect theactual characteristics in the groundwater. The treatability study was repeated with

I I the groundwater spiked with the representative concentrations of organics found inthe Hagen Farm groundwater. All experimental procedures remained the same using

I 1 groundwater spiked with organics at concentrations listed in Table 4.2. Since the

samples were not spiked with metals, no further metal precipitation testing was

II performed. The concentrations of these spiked compounds were selected from the

higher value of the historic concentrations in the initial characterization by Warzyn11 Inc., or Wisconsin Public Health Groundwater Quality Standards - NR 140 PAL.

4.4 In-situ Bioremediation

Bench-scale treatability studies for the bioremediation of saturated soils contaminatedwith organics are normally conducted to provide information concerning the feasibilityof their biodegradation. This study utilized bench-scale soil bioreactors to obtaininformation on the biodegradability (rate and extent of biodegradation) ofcontaminants in Hagen Farm soil within a relatively short period of time. Soilbioreactors can provide results much more quickly than can other laboratory testssuch as land treatment studies (soil tilling) or composting studies because an optimumgrowth environment is provided in the reactor. In addition to the soil bioreactors, soilcolumns were set up to obtain information on the degradation potential of the

contaminants under conditions more indicative of those encountered in field in-situtreatment than in the well-mixed reactors. Soil column treatment using Hagen Farmsoil would provide some information on the availability of soil contaminants insubsurface conditions for in-situ treatment.

The soil bioreactor and soil column studies were designed to evaluate the followingparameters In two different growth environments (a bioreactor condition and asubsurface condition):

• Rate and extent of biodegradation for various organic contaminants such, as THF, xylene, phenols, etc.

• Nutrient requirement (nitrogen and phosphorus)• Oxygen source (aeration versus H202)• Microorganism requirement (addition of commercially available bacterial

culture)

11 The rate and the extent of bioremediation for the major contaminants in two different

environments are of significant value. Not only would the feasibility of

I;bioremediation, the time and other requirements necessary for the successfulbiodegradation of organics be determined, but also the relative rate of degradation

I W between a bioreactor condition and a subsurface environment could be established.The oxygen source requires evaluation since both aeration and hydrogen peroxide

[ addition have been successfully used in in-situ bioremediations. Bacterial populationswere monitored to see the effect of oxygen source and nutrient addition on indigenousand supplemental microorganisms. With sufficient nutrient and oxygen, a microbial

population size will respond to available biodegradable substrate(s). The study was

also designed to evaluate the change in biodegradability due to the addition of

r supplemental microorganisms. Finally, the need for nutrient addition (nitrogen andI . phosphorus) to the indigenous microorganisms alone was evaluated.

The information from these bench-scale treatability studies should be used in

conjunction with site hydrogeological and soil characterization information in order todevelop the field pilot-scale testing requirements for in-situ bioremediation. Sitecharacterization, which includes soil characteristics, subsurface hydrogeology, and

microbial characteristics may limit the rate and/or extent of treatment of thecontaminated zone even when a bench scale biodegradation study shows promisingresults. Therefore a thorough site characterization may be necessary to determineboth the extent of contamination as well as engineering constraints and opportunities.

4.4.1 Soil Collection and CharacterizationThe soil sample received at the Geneva Research Center (GRC) from the Hagen farmsite was collected from bore hole BTB-1 at depths of 10 to 30 feet by Warzyn Inc.As previously noted in Section 3.2, the sampling methodology did not require theretention of volatile constituents of concern in the sample, as the feasibility of in-situbiodegradation is governed by the slower degradation rates of more recalcitant andgenerally less water soluble, less volatile organic compounds. The soils werecollected at the site using an auger and delivered to the GRC in 3 x 5 gallon buckets(approximately 2 cu. ft. total soil volume). This soil was subsequently screenedthrough a 1/4 inch mesh screen to remove coarse material which could not besuspended in the soil bioreactor. Two-thirds of the soil by weight passed the screen(90 kg) and the remaining one-third (gravel) was retained on the screen. Material

passing the screen was used for the soil characterization and for the bioreactor andsoil column treatability studies.

The screened soils were characterized for the physical, chemical and microbiologicalparameters listed in Table 4.3. Information from these tests was used for several

purposes. The hydraulic conductivity (or permeability) of the soil determines the abilityfor liquid transport through the soil to deliver nutrients or oxygen to the saturated soilsand allow movement of microbes. As the hydraulic conductivity of a soil is directly

related to its texture (e.g. sandy soils generally have higher saturated conductivities

than do finer-textured soils), soil texture was also analyzed. Bulk densities of the spilswere obtained in the permeability tests so that the soil columns could be packed topermeabilities similar to those obtained in the permeability test. Soil chemicalcharacterization of the Hagen Farm sample was performed to establish contaminanttype(s) and concentration(s) for those parameters on the Target Compound List (seeAppendix B). Cation exchange capacity was also measured to correlate the resultsof any contaminant flushing which may occur in the laboratory soil columns studiesto in-situ field studies. Finally, a bacterial enumeration (e.g. spread plate technique)was done to establish the bacterial population density of indigenous species prior tobiosttmulation in the treatabiltty study.

11 4.4.2 Soil Biodegradation StudyFour soil bioreactors were used to measure the feasiblity of biodegradation of the

11 organic compounds in the Hagen Farm soil. The reactors were set up according to theschematic shown in Figure 4.6. Nitrogen (40 mg/L) and phosphorous (5 mg/L) were

M added to Reactors 2, 3 and 4 in order to provide sufficient nutrients to the

microorganisms. Commercial microorganisms (2.5 x 10* cfu/gm dry soil) from SolmarI [ Corporation of Orange, California were added to Reactors 3 and 4. Oxygen was

supplied in the form of diffused air to Reactor 3 and hydrogen peroxide was added to

I ^ Reactor 2 and 4 to maintain the dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration above 5 mg/L.. Operating parameter ranges for the four reactors are listed in Table 4.4. Each of theseI; reactors contained 19 percent total solids which consisted of screened soil and

a dechlorinated tap water. All reactors were mixed continuously to suspend the clay,

silt and finer sand fractions; the larger sand and gravel fraction were mixed and turned• I over three times per week. The reactors were monitored five to six times weekly for*L temperature, DO, and pH. Distilled water was added to each reactor as necessaryII during monitoring to maintain constant volumes. The liquid and solid contents of each'— of the reactors were sampled initially for chemical and microbial analyses, and again

on days 12 and 26 of the test.

4.4.3 Soil Column StudyColumn studies were initiated to obtain information on the degradation potential of thecontaminants under conditions more indicative of field in-situ biotreatment than thewell-mixed reactors. The three bench-scale columns were designed to evaluate thefollowing parameters:

• Biodegradability of specific organic contaminants under subsurface

conditions,

• Presence of indigenous microorganisms, and• Requirement for an external source of microorganisms

Each of the 3.5 inch diameter soil columns contained compacted screened soilbounded by 3 to 4 inch upper and lower gravel beds. The reason that screened soilswere used in the soil columns was to have identical soils in both soil columns and

I I bioreactors so that results could be directly compared and correlated. The lowergravel beds rested on a felt geotextile, which in turn rested on a plastic support with

I] drain holes. Figure 4.7 shows the three soil column setups. Each soil column was

packed using 10 pounds of wet screened soil compacted with a weight to a density|J of approximately 150 Ibs./cubic foot. Tap water was introduced to the top of each

column to saturate the column and measure the column effluent rate. When a 4 inch

I ^ - head of water did not produce effluent from any of the three columns, a vacuum wasapplied to one column to force a flow. However, even with the applied vacuum,

II column effluent was virtually non-existent.

As a result, a smaller column (1 inch diameter) was set up with loosely packed soilto determine if water would flow under these conditions. A minimal water flow wasseen in this loosely packed soil column. The column was then backflushed andallowed to settle to repack the soil. Again, no flow was observed from the column.As it appeared that the soil density as well as fraction of fines in the soil wassignificant enough to preclude sufficient water flow through the column for sampling,

the soil column study was discontinued. Although these results indicate that the

rru screened soil would not provide conducive environment for in-situ bioremediation, theT original unscreened soil sample (which consisted of a third of gravel larger than 1 /4

5.0 RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS5.1 Pump-and-Treat with Non-spiked Ground waterThe treatability study was conducted on groundwater samples every two weeksshipped from the Hagen Farm Superfund site. The study results are presented anddiscussed in the following sections:

5.1.1 Groundwater CharacterizationTable 5.1 shows the results of the initial characterization of the Hagen Farmgroundwater. Only the parameters with concentrations above detection limits arediscussed here. The COD value of 390 mg/L is much higher than the previouslyreported value of 75 mg/L. The ammonia and phosphorus concentrations indicate thatphosphorus may be limiting if the groundwater is to be treated by a biologicaltreatment unit.

Metal results show that the high calcium (200mg/L), iron (27mg/L) and magnesium(80mg/L) concentrations could cause plugging problems for air stripping, carbonadsorption, and/or attached-growth biological processes if not properly removed. As

a result, pre-treatment for metal removal may be necessary. In an aerobic suspended-growth biological unit, iron and manganese may be oxidized and precipitated, thus no

, pre-treatment may be required. However, if metals accumulate to high levels in thereactor, then pretreatment may still be needed to ensure process stability.

Only three VOCs were detected in the groundwater sample, which confirms theprevious finding that ethytbenzene, tetrahydrofuran and xylene (total) are of significantquantity in the groundwater. All three compounds are highly biodegradable andshould be easily removed biologically.

xylene (total) were of significant concentrations in the groundwater tested. In Table5.2, 97% of xylene was stripped at an air/water ratio of 25 and 99.9% at a ratio of150, whereas THF was only removed by 40% at an air/water ratio of 150. Figure 5.1shows the VOC concentrations versus different air/water ratios. This test furtherconfirmed that soluble compounds, such as THF, cannot be stripped easily.

The presence of the soluble organic compounds, (e.g. THF), makes it necessary to addan additional treatment process after the air stripper, if air stripping is to be used.However, these soluble organic compounds are fairly biodegradable and should beeasily removed by a biological unit, such as an activated sludge unit or liquid phaseGAC. A vapor-phase GAC adsorption or catalytic oxidation unit may be needed toreduce VOC emissions and would raise the overall cost for the treatment.Furthermore, the possibility of plugging by metal precipitates means that pre-treatmentmay be required that could make this process less economical.

5.1.3 GAC AdsorptionA lab-scale GAC column was used to evaluate the GAC adsorption capacity for theHagen Farm groundwater. The GAC study was conducted to study the breakthrough

characteristics of contaminants of concern in the groundwater. The reactor designwas based on an empty bed contact time (EBCT) of 30 minutes and a total GACvolume of 500 ml.

The test was designed to treat the Hagen Farm groundwater which had received noI j_ pre-treatment. The test was terminated after only 1 day of operation because the

flow was severely restricted to half of its original rate in a day. It became apparentl]_ that suspended solids or metals had plugged the GAC and reduced the reactor_. capacity. Therefore, a pre-treatment unit would be needed to remove suspendedI _ solids in a GAC column influent to preserve GAC adsorption capacity. The suspended

. solids in the groundwater can be retained by a clarifier or a sand filter. MetalI precipitation would be required to remove the metals in the groundwater prior to the

GAC unit.

A GAC pump test for the Hagen Farm groundwater was conducted previously byWarzyn Inc., in December, 1990. Raw groundwater with no pre-treatment was usedfor the test, which occurred over ten days. Results of the test showed that GAC caneffectively polish the groundwater and that the GAC adsorptive capacity for THF isabout 4.5 mg THF/g GAC.

Since the groundwater contains suspended solids and metals that plugged the GACcolumn in the bench test, the test was repeated with groundwater pre-treated withair oxidation and filtration. In addition, the filtered groundwater was spiked to ensurethat all contaminants were properly considered in the test. This test was completedand the results of which are presented in Section 5.2.3 of this report.

5.1.4 Biological TreatmentA 6.4 liter bench-scale activated sludge reactor was used for the Hagen Farmgroundwater. The reactor was operated at a food-to-microorganism (F/M) ratio ofabout 0.1 gCOD/gVSS-d. The solids retention time (SRT) of the reactor wascontrolled at 65 days.

Phosphorus was added for microbial nutritional requirements in the form of phosphoric

acid, which was also used to adjust the reactor pH to below 8.0. The reactor wasmonitored daily for temperature, DO and pH. Influent and effluent CODs were

] measured every other day, while influent and effluent BODs were monitored onceevery two weeks. Two sets of data shown in Table 5.3 were collected after the

fllj_ reactor reached steady-state operation.

BOD removals were over 92% with an effluent BOD of less than 4 mg/L indicating agood system performance, TSS in the effluent was also very low in the single digitrange reflecting a well-operated high SRT system. Table 5.3 shows the good

removals of VOCs and semi-VOCs. Two major compounds, THF and xylenes, wereremoved to below detection limits.

Figure 5.2 shows data for the mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) and mixed liquor

volatile suspended solid (MLVSS). The MLSS increased from 6000 mg/L to about

16,000 mg/L, while MLVSS only increased by about 1000 mg/L. According to Figure.5.2, the rate of inert solids accumulation was about 270mg/L-day, which wilt interferewith aeration if not controlled properly. The most likely source of these inert solidsare inorganic particulates in influent, such as clay particles, and/or iron and

. manganese precipitates. It is likely that a shorter SRT may reduce the solids build-upin the reactor. However, the shorter SRT will result in a higher F/M ratio andcompromise the effluent quality. Consequently, a pre-treatment unit such as

coagulation, flocculation and clarification for efficient TSS removal, is recommendedprior to the activated sludge system. This pretreatment may also be used for metalremoval by adding pH chemicals such as lime and NaOH, or allowing for air oxidationto induce metal precipitation.

5.1.5 UV/Chemical Oxidation

Two UV/peroxide tests were conducted on the Hagen Farm groundwater. The testconditions for these 2 runs are shown in Table 5.4. In both tests, a peroxide dosageof 500 mg/l was used. The reason that this dosage was selected was that oxidation

of organics only improved lightly with a dosage about 500 mg/l. In Test 2, pH wasadjusted to 5 and ferrous ammonium sulfate was added as a catalyst at a dosage of3.6 mg/l as Fe to promote oxidation reaction.

The data are summarized in Table 5.5. The analytical results show that none of the

59 VOCs and 78 semi-VOCs analyzed were above detection limits and only acetoneand bio(2-thylhexyl) phthalate were detected in the treated effluent. These values areinconsistent with previous work and with the characterization results from the twoUV/peroxide system vendors who had detected a high level of THF and xylenes in the

r 5-4I.

Hagen Farm groundwater samples. After careful evaluation, it is deemed that thedescription of these results is probably a result of laboratory errors and the analyticaldata will not be used.

The data from vendors show that UV/peroxide oxidation of THF and xylenes werefeasible. These results are summarized in Table 5.6. The test conditions to achievethese results included pre-filtration of the groundwater and UV/oxidation at a pH of5.0 with a H2O2 concentration of 200 mg/l. It also showed that there was very littlebenefit to using catalyst. These operating conditions will be used for sizing a fullscale UV/peroxide system and for developing cost estimates for a UV/peroxide systemfor comparisons with other treatment technologies in Chapter 6.

5.1.6 Metal RemovalMetal precipitation tests were conducted with sodium hydroxide and lime. The test

was performed with sodium hydroxide using a jar test apparatus. Table 5.4

summarizes the test results at various hydroxide dosages and indicates that iron andmanganese can be removed to acceptable levels at pHs between 8.4 and 9.3. Sincesodium hydroxide is more costly, the test was repeated with lime (see Table 5.5).Table 5.5 shows comparable results for iron and manganese in the pH range tested.

Based on the test results, a metal precipitation process operated with lime addition topH 9 or above should sufficiently remove inorganics such as Fe and Mn (and othermetals) as well as inert solids from the groundwater and prevent them fromcontributing to the inert solids build up, or plugging problems.

|_ An air oxidation test was also conducted to evaluate the feasibility of simple aerationto oxidize Fe*2 to Fe*3 which can then be removed by precipitation and/or filtration.

Thus, samples were taken over the aeration time of 120 minutes for iron analysis andthe results are shown in Figure 5.3. The results show that at least 60 minutes of

aeration time would be required to oxidize and remove over 25 mg/L of Fe to below

5.1.7 Non-Spiked Groundwater Treatability Study Summary

The experimental results can be summarized as follows:1 . Results of initial characterization of Hagen Farm ground water show that THF,

xylenes and ethylbenzene are detected in significant concentrations. Inaddition, iron and manganese are the two metals which have highconcentrations and may cause difficulties for subsequent treatment processes.I

2. Air stripping alone cannot remove the major contaminant, THF, and thus is nota preferred process in Hagen Farm groundwater treatment without additionaltreatment processes.

3. Due to the solid plugging problem, GAC column testing was stopped prior totest completion. A separate test involving air oxidation and clarification "pretreatment followed by GAC column adsorption for the spiked groundwater

was subsequently conducted. The results of this second test are presented inSection 5.2.3 of this report. A previous treatability study showed that theadsorptive capacity of GAC is about 4.5 mg THF/g GAC, which is a relatively •

low adsorption capacity for organics.

4. An activated sludge unit which was operated at 0.1 gCOD/gVSS-d (65 daysSRT) removed most organics from the Hagen Farm groundwater. BOD and TSS

values in the effluent were consistently less than 10 mg/L indicating good

operation and good performance. However, inert solids appeared toaccumulate in the reactor and they may hamper the treatment operation in thelong run. Thus, a pre-treatment unit to precipitate metals, (mainly Fe and Mn),

and TSS is required.

5. Metal precipitation tests exhibited good removal of metals. In the test

conducted with lime, iron and manganese were removed to low levels. Inaddition, arsenic and barium were both removed to satisfactory concentrations.Air oxidation induced precipitation also performed well on Hagen Farmgroundwater.

5.2 Pump-and-Treat with Spiked GroundwaterThe treatability study was repeated with Hagen Farm groundwater spiked with variousorganics at concentrations listed in Table 4.2. The purpose of spiking was to simulatethe worst case scenario of the groundwater chemical constituent concentration. The

results are presented and discussed in the following sections.

5.2.1 Spiked Groundwater CharacterizationThe Hagen Farm groundwater was spiked using concentrated stock solution prior tothe treatability testing. Groundwater concentrations before and after the spike arelisted in Table 5.9 for compounds of concern. Table 5.9 shows the similarconcentrations for both the target and the actual measurements. It also shows thedifficulties of spiking to low levels, because the detection limits of several compoundsare higher than the added concentration. In addition, the volatile nature of somecompounds made emission losses unavoidable during the preparation process.

5.2.2 Air Stripping

The analytical results of the spiked air stripping test are summarized in Table 5.10.THF was present at high concentrations. Unlike the previous (unspiked) test, MEKwas also present in significant concentrations. Even at an air/water ratio of 150, THFand MEK were only partially removed, confirming that air stripping cannot adequatelyremove soluble VOC's such as THF and ketones from the Hagen Farm groundwater.

Figure 5.4 shows the THF and MEK concentrations in the effluent of the air stripping

test using spiked groundwater. Concentrations of both organics decreased at thebeginning and stabilized after 60 minutes of operation. Results of this test show the

same trend as those of the tests conducted with non-spiked groundwater.

5.2.3 GAC AdsorptionPrior to the GAC adsorption test, the groundwater was pretreated with air oxidationto remove iron in order to minimize the plugging problem previously encountered inthe unspiked GAC tests. Groundwater samples were aerated for four hours andfollowed by settling to remove the solids which eliminated the potential for GACcolumn clogging.

The results of the GAC test are shown in Table 5.11. the results show that THF wasthe only VOC and bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate the only semi-VOC detected in theeffluent. Bis(2-ethylhexyl)phtha!ate appeared to be non-adsorbable since there wasan immediate breakthrough of this organics in the carbon column. Therefore, GAC

might not be suitable for the groundwater if bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate concentrationis present above the discharge limit.

The breakthrough curve for THF is plotted in Figure 5.5. The corresponding THF

adsorptive capacity for GAC is calculated to be 19 mg THF/g GAC at an influentconcentration of 55,000 //g/l. The THF adsorption capacity determined in this study,

along with the value of 4.5 mg THF/g GAC for an influent of 18,500//g/l, determinedin the previous pump test study, will be used to design a GAC adsorber. A value of10 mg THF/g GAC will be used for the design of the GAC system for Hagen Farm

groundwater. Since the adsorptive capacity of GAC increases linearly with theinfluent THF concentration, 10 mg THF/g GAC is selected for the process design.

This value is an estimate interpolated from the two experimental values.

5.2.4 Biological Treatment

The bench-scale activated sludge reactor was operated with spiked groundwater forover one month under the same conditions as those for the non-spiked groundwater.After achieving steady-state, two sets of samples were collected. The results of this

test are summarized in Table 5.12. The results were very similar to the non-spikedtest: BOD concentrations in the effluent were lower than 5 mg/t, indicating goodtreatment efficiency. No VOCs were detected in the effluent, and bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate was the only semi-VOC detected in the effluent. However, the phthalateconcentration was very low.

The biological sludge was not characterized for TCLP compounds. However, the full-scale treatment system design was based on the assumption that the sludge washazardous.

5.2.5 Spiked Groundwater Treatability Study SummaryThe experimental results can be summarized as follows:1. The spiked concentrations were fairly close to the target concentrations for the

Hagen Farm groundwater.2. The air stripping test confirmed the previous findings that soluble VOC's such

as tetrahydrofuran and methyl ethyl ketone are not very strippable. Thus, airstripping is not a preferred process for treating Hagen Farm groundwaterwithout additional treatment processes.

3. The GAC column study showed that the adsorption capacity of GAC for THFis low at a high concentration. The study confirms our previous results for non-spiked groundwater. Bis{2-ethylhexyl)phthalate was found to be non-

adsorbable even at a low concentration (10 //g/L or less).4. The activated sludge study for the spiked groundwater resulted in BOD

concentration of less than 5 mg/L and TSS less than 10 mg/L, indicating a very

good process performance.

5.2.6 Groundwater Treatability Study ConclusionsBased on the results from both studies, four possible treatment trains can properlytreat the Hagen Farm groundwater. They are as follows:1. Metal Precipitation + Air Stripping + GAC Adsorption

2. Metal Precipitation + GAC Adsorption3. Metal Precipitation + Activated Sludge4. Metal Precipitation + UV/Chemical Oxidation

The cost analysis for these three options will be discussed in Chapter 6 of this report.Actual water quality of extracted groundwater during full-scale operation may be lesscontaminated than the water sample used in the treatability study, becausegroundwater will be collected over a much larger area having lower concentrations ofcertain compounds than were observed at monitoring well MW22. The actual waterquality and treatment costs will determine which treatment train to choose and ifindividual unit processes, such as metal precipitation, are necessary.

5.3 In-situ Bioremediatlon

5.3.1 Soil CharacterizationPhysical Characteristics

Laboratory hydraulic conductivity (permeability) studies were conducted at the Geneva

Research Center to estimate the permeability of soil from the Hagen Farm site whichwas used in the column studies. Measurements were obtained In triplicate for the

screened Hagen Farm soil using the triaxial-cell method with backpressure (SW-846

Method 9100, Section 2.8). The data tables for the three hydraulic conductivitymeasurements are attached in Appendix E.

The hydraulic conductivity of the screened soil as determined by this method was inthe range of 10"4 cm/sec. This range is within the range of values for unconsolidateddeposits such as glacial till, silty sand and silt (loess)1. However, it is an order ofmagnitude lower than the average of the values for the 18 wells at the Hagen FarmSite by Warzyn Inc. in March, 1989 (compare 1 x 10'* cm/sec to the average value

of 4.1 x 10'3 cm/sec). The screening of the soil sample to remove coarse pebbleslarger than 1/4" during the study might have impacted the permeability since the labsoil columns did not produce effluent at a permeability in the 10"4 cm/sec range.Normally a permeability value of approximately 10*3 cm/sec is conducive to in-situbioremediation. It is recommended that field hydraulic conductivities be performed aspart of any in-situ field bioremediation studies,

The average bulk density of the soil used in the triaxial cells was measured at 2.12g/cm3 (132 Ibs/ft3). This value is comparable to the earlier density value of 150 Ibs/ft3

to which the soils were compacted in the columns (see Section 4.3.3).

A combined sieve/hydrometer analysis was performed on the soil using ASTM D-422

procedure for particle size analysis of soils (see Appendix F). Particle size sieving wasused to determine the percentage of gravel, the various sand fractions and a combinedsilt/clay fraction. The hydrometer analysis was used to determine the separatepercentages of sand, silt and clay. Sieve size was chosen based on the United StatesDepartment of Agriculture (USDA) soil particle classification. Approximately 83

percent of the soil was sand and gravel, 14 percent was silt, and 3 percent was clay,which classifies the soil as a loamy sand based on the USDA soil texture triangleclassification. This again is an indication of the good potential for in-situbioremediation application at the Hagen Farm Site.

Table 5.13 summarizes the results discussed above for soil characterization.

Chemical Characteristics

The soil sample received at the Geneva Research Center (GRC) from the Hagen farmsite was collected from bore hole BTB-1 at depths of 10 to 30 feet by Warzyn Inc.As previously noted in Section 3.2, the sampling methodology did not require theretention of volatile constituents of concern in the sample, as the feasibility of in-situbiodegradation is governed by the slower degradation rates of more recalcitant and

generally less water soluble, less volatile organic compounds.

The screened soil sample was characterized for the 126 compounds in the TargetCompound List. Analytical results for the compounds detected in the screened soilsample are presented in Table 5.14. These results show there is little or no detectableconcentrations of insoluble and recalcitrant organics in the original screened soilsample; all organic parameters except for acetone (measured at 70 //g/kg wetweight basis) and bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (measured at 360 j/g/kg wet weightibasis) were below detection limits. However, this single sample shbuld not beconsidered as representative of site soils. A more comprehensive soil survey may bei /performed to determine soil contaminants and concentration levels in the saturatedzone. Some heavy metals were present in the soil, however, as discussed in latersections, no metal toxicity was seen during the bioreactor study. Unfortunately, due

to the time constraint of the study, both the soil biodegradation study and the columnstudy were initiated before the results of the original soil concentrations were

available.

Microbiological Enumeration

Microbial populations need to be monitored to see the effect of oxygen source and> nutrient addition on indigenous and supplemental microorganisms. With sufficient

nutrient and oxygen, the heterotrophic population should respond to availablesubstrate(s). These substrates can include organic compounds on the TargetCompound List (TCL), as well as existing biodegradable soil organic matter such assugars or proteins. As there was very little or no contamination of the soil with

compounds on the TCL, total heterotrophs (aerobic and facultative anaerobicmicroorganisms which can degrade a wide variety of organics) were analyzed todetermine the general bacterial population density. Results of a total heterotrophicplate count on the original soil sample collected in the saturated zone at a 10 - 30 footdepth showed there to be some microbiological activity in the soils for oxygen-utilizingbacteria. The total plate count was 1.6 x 10s cfu/g dry soil. There appears to be a

significant bacterial population in the soil sample collected from the Hagen Farm siteat a level comparable to literature values for population densities found in severalshallow water table aquifers2.

5.3.2 Soil Biodegradation StudyThe four soil bioreactors were set up, monitored and sampled as detailed in Section4.3.2. Monitoring and sampling were discontinued after 30 days when the resultsshowed little or no biological activity in the reactors. Reactor conditions aresummarized in a schematic in Figure 4.5 and operating parameters are listed in Table4.3. The following is a presentation and discussion of the results of the soilbiodegradation study.

Organic Removal Efficiency

The analytical results of the performance of the soil bioreactors for contaminantremoval are given in Table 5.15 (soils) and 5.16 (liquids) (see also Appendices G andH for detailed results). As with the initial soil sample, the liquid and soil samples fromthe bioreactors for both sampling events showed there to be little or no existingorganic contamination. Total VOC and Semi-VOC's were less than 500^g/kg initiallyin the reactor. After 12 days of operation, the first sample indicated little or noorganics left.

J The TOCs for the soil fractions sampled on Day 12 were substantially less than thatof the initial values, indicating some degradation activity (see Figures 5.6 through 5.9

[ for Reactors 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively). The TOC of Reactor 4 was substantiallylower (3,800 mg/L as compared to 31,000); it also had the highest OURs during the

|__ study. Variability in the Day 12 TOC values for Reactors 1, 2, and 3 may be a resultof inadvertent nonhomogenization of the soil during the sampling event.

Low levels of some heavy metals were detected in the samples (As, Cr, Cu, Pb, Hg,and Zn). However, these did not appear to impact the existing microbial populationin the original soil sample or in the bioreactors.

Oxvqen Uptake Rate

The oxygen uptake rate (OUR), as determined from dissolved oxygen measurements,provides a quick and valuable indication of biological activity and hence biodegradationrates. Dissolved oxygen levels were measured on days 8, 16, 25, and 32 for all fourreactors (see Figure 5.10 for Day 8 results and Appendix I for figures showing Day16, 25, and 32 results). The data from the dissolved oxygen levels for these fourdays were used to calculate the oxygen uptake rates for each of the reactors (seeFigure 5.11). The OURs approached zero for Reactors 1 and 2 during these fourperiods. The OUR for Reactor 3 (which received air and microbes) was 0.6 mgO2/L/hr on the first day and decreased to zero for the remainder of the study. TheOUR for Reactor 4 (which received H202 and microbes) had the highest values of allfour reactors throughout the study, indicating the highest biological activity.

Microbiological Enumeration

This study was designed to evaluate the effects on biodegradation rate(s) of oxygensource and nutrient addition for indigenous and supplemental microorganisms. Withsufficient nutrient and oxygen, indigenous heterotrophic populations may increase insize in response to available substrate(s). Limitations to a sustained population

increase are generally the presence of toxic compounds (e.g., heavy metals, very highlevels of substrate, or production of a toxic metabolite). However, the rate ofpopulation increase of indigenous microorganisms may be sufficiently slow to warrantan initial addition of supplemental microorganisms which can utilize existing

substrate (s).

Microbiological enumerations were done on the initial soil sample, as well as on initialand Days 12 and 26 soils and liquids for all four reactors. Figures 5.12 through 5.15

show the results of the combined bacterial enumeration/ml of soil slurry for Reactors1-4, respectively.

In summary, the bacterial population densities for those reactors which had notreceived supplemental microorganisms (Reactors 1 and 2) decreased or remained thesame from initial levels after 26 days of operation. However, the bacterial densitiesincreased significantly for those reactors which received supplemental microorganisms(Reactors 3 and 4). The bacterial counts for Reactor 3 and 4 by Day 26 of the studywere 1 to 3 x 1010 as-compared to 2 to 3 x 10* for R1 and R2, a tenfold increase.The results supported the previous OUR data that supplemental microorganisms wouldbe required to promote the biological activity for Hagen Farm saturated soils. Theyalso indicated that very little difference in oxygen source, (air or H2O2) on bacterialgrowth.

5.3.3 Soil Treatability SummaryThe following conclusions can be drawn regarding the feasibility of in-situbiodegradation of organic contamination in Hagen Farm soils:

1. The saturated soil sample received for treatability studies was not contaminated

[ with compounds on the Target Compound List. This soil sample may or may- W

not be representative of on-site soils since the soil samples were screenedI through 1/4" mesh to remove coarse gravel for the soil bioreactor study. A

comprehensive survey/characterization of saturated soils may be performed to[j determine the contamination profile, strength, location and other

characteristics.

2. If the saturated soils are contaminated, then bioremediation is a potential on-site treatment method based on the following observations: the OUR was highfor the reactor receiving microbial supplement; there is sufficient TOC in thesoils to support the growth of microorganisms; contaminants currently found

I

at the site are biodegradable; and there was no metal toxicity observed for thesample tested.

3. If in-situ bioremediation is selected, results from the TOC degradation, oxygenuptake rates and bacterial enumeration indicate that supplementalmicroorganisms may enhance the biological activity in Hagen Farm saturatedsoils.

4. The low flow rates found in the soil column test indicate that laboratory columnstudies for these soils will not provide Information for an evaluation of thebiodegradability of the organic compounds. On-site field tests could beperformed in order to evaluate the permeabilities of the subsurface materials.

5. Field in-situ biodegradation studies are needed if this option is selected as analternative for site remediation. If a groundwater pump-and-treat system (withon-site biological treatment units) is installed, the effluent from the biologicaltreatment units could serve as an influent for an in-situ field bioremediationtest. The effluent would also provide acclimated microorganisms for asupplemental source of organisms.

The total installed capital cost for this treatment option (100 gpm) is $2,142,000 asIs indicated in Table 6.2. Table 6.3 provides an operating cost estimate. The totaloperating cost is estimated to be $0.0169/gallon (which includes variable and fixedcosts).

6.1.2 Option 2: Metals Precipitation (Air Oxidation) + GAC AdsorptionThe process flow sheet for this option is shown in Rgure 6.2. The process consistsof pumping groundwater from recovery wells into a mixed equalization tank, whichalso has aeration to oxidize and precipitate metals. . The groundwater which hasflocculant injected into it is then pumped into a flocculation chamber which flows intoa clarifier to settle the inert and metal suspended solids.

be $0.0119/gallon as indicated in Table 6.3.

6.1.4 Option 4: Metal Precipitation (Air Oxidation) + UV/Chemical OxidationThe process flow sheet for the UV/chemical oxidation is shown in Figure 6.4. Theprocess flow train consists of the previously discussed equalization and airoxidation/solids clarification, and UV/peroxide treatment. The process requires pHadjustment of influent and effluent to the UV/peroxide process. The final processedeffluent would be pumped into an effluent holding tank prior to reinjection. The solidsproduced during treatment would be dewatered on-site using a filter press anddisposed off site.

As indicated in Table 6.2, the total installed facility cost for this option is $514,000while the total operating costs would be $0.0039/gallon as indicated in Table 6.3.

6.2 Field Demonstration of In-Situ Bioremediation*

This section discusses the conceptual design for an in-situ bioremediation fielddemonstration study for Hagen Farm site soils based on results from the soilbioremediation study. The system design presented here is general in nature, as amore detailed design incorporating injection wells/trenches and extraction wells wouldneed the following information (which is to be developed later during the RD/RA

phase):

1. Nature and extent of soil contamination at the site;2. Characterization of site geology and hydrogeology (to optimize the

location and type of injection system (e.g. shallow trench, well), and toInsure that this location will not be influenced by the of source controlmeasures); and

3. Installation of an above-ground contaminated groundwater pump-and-treat system (which would serve as a source of water for the injectionwells).

The In-situ field demonstration at the Hagen Farm site may consist of one or two trialsto be done concurrently: one to test the feasibility of in-situ biodegradation using theinjection and recovery wells and the other as a control with no injection.Alternatively, the pump and treat/reinjection system could be operated and monitoredwithout nutrient, oxygen or microorganisms for a control period. Then the nutrient,oxygen or microorganisms could be added to the reinjection water while observing thesoil remediation effect. The advantages gained by the use of in-situ bioremediationcan then be defined after comparing the results from the study to the control.

6.2.1 Conceptual DesignThe in-situ bioremediation field study will involve reinjection of the effluent from theabove-ground groundwater pump and treat system. All or a portion of the treatedeffluent from the above-ground groundwater system could be used for reinjection.The effluent would need to meet any applicable water quality standards for reinjectioninto a groundwater aquifer. Oxygen, in the form of hydrogen peroxide, and nutrients(nitrogen and phosphorous) will be added to the effluent prior to reinjection tostimulate aerobic microbial degradation. Results from the laboratory bioreactor

treatability studies indicate that supplemental microorganisms are probably requiredto enhance the biological activity in Hagen Farm saturated soils. However, addition

of commercial microorganisms may not be needed since the treated effluent willcontain microorganisms which have been acclimated to the contaminants in the

6.2.2 Sampling and MonitoringThe injection/extraction system is expected to be operated while baseline and routinemonitoring of the subsurface soils and groundwater will be conducted to provide datafor evaluating the system's performance (e.g. contaminant reduction, nutrienttransport, biological activity) and to control its operation. The number of samples,sampling frequency, and analytical requirements for both soils and groundwater willbe developed in the detailed design when site characterization data becomes available.

2. Based on initial analysis of potential groundwater treatment unit operationsIf considered in the treatability study, air stripping, granular activated carbon,

biological treatment using the activated sludge process and UV/peroxideI \^_/ oxidation are the selected treatment candidates for organic treatment, while

conventional metal precipitation and air oxidation are the selected options forI metals treatment.

7.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Based on the results of the treatability study and conceptual design developed in thisreport, the following conclusions and recommendations are made for the Hagen Farmsite remediation:

7.1 Pump and Treat Remedial Alternative1. Initial groundwater characterization indicated that three organic compounds

(THF, xylene and ethylbenzene) as well as eight metals (arsenic, barium, lead,mercury, Iron, manganese, magnesium and calcium) are a concern in the HagenFarm groundwater. Iron and manganese are of concern because of thepotential plugging of treatment processes such as air stripping and carbonadsorption. Iron and manganese can be removed by either air oxidation ormetal precipitation. Calcium and magnesium are a concern because thesemetals can cause scaling and plugging in the air stripping tower. They can beremoved by chemical precipitation only.

3. Treatability study results and subsequent conceptual design of the fourgroundwater treatment options indicate that metals precipitation, followed bybiological treatment of the site contaminated groundwater is the recommendedgroundwater remediation option because of its high treatment efficiency forHagen Farm groundwater and lower cost. The activated sludge process couldalso provide acclimated supplemental microorganisms for in-situ bioremediation.The installed cost of a 100 gpm facility is estimated at $2,359,000 with the

total processing cost {including capital and operating) at 1.19C/gal.

7.2 In-Situ Bioremediation Alternative1. The soil sample received for treatability studies was not contaminated with

compounds on the Target Compound List. Because of random variation,sampling difficulties and the screening of the samples through 1/4" mesh toremove coarse solids for bioreactor testing, the soil sample may not berepresentative of site saturated zone soils. A comprehensive survey/

i characterization of these soils may be performed to determine the extent ofcontamination and need for remediation.

2. If the saturated zone soils are contaminated, then bioremediation has goodpotential as an on-site treatment methodology based on the followingobservations: the oxygen uptake rate (OUR) was high for the reactor receivingmicrobial supplement; there is sufficient organic material in the soils to supportthe growth of microorganisms; contaminants found at the site currently arebiodegradable; and testing performed Indicated no evidence of metal toxicity.

3. Field in-situ bioremediation studies would be the most optimum approach toevaluate the combined effort of site characteristics, including hydrogeology, soilprofiles, and biodegradation and will be necessary to confirm laboratory resultsfor Hagen Farm site.

U.S. EPA List

Nine alternatives have been proposed for potentialapplication to the GCOU. Each alternative includes zoning/deedrestrictions and groundwater monitoring. Alternatives 1-3, 5 and7-9 include an extraction well system. Alternatives 1-2 and 7-8include air;stripping. Alternatives 1-3 and 7-9 includedischarging^treated groundwater to a local stream. Alternative 5proposes discharge of untreated or pretreated groundwater to alocal publically-owned treatment works ("POTW"), Alternatives 1and 7 call for catalytic oxidation of treatment emissions.Alternatives 2 and 8 call for activated carbon adsorption oftreatment emissions. Centralized carbon adsorption o£contaminated groundwater is proposed in Alternative 3: activatedcarbon adsorption at individual wells is proposed in Alternative4. (Activated carbon adsorption of treated groundwater isproposed as "effluent polishing" in Alternatives 7 and 8.)

Subject: Review of Technical Memorandum 9A Analysis of Alternatives(SCOU) for the City Disposal Landfill I

Dear Mr. WilV:

The Department has completed its review of Technical Memo 9A. The Departmenthnlieves the nemo does a very good Job in presenting and evaluating thepossible remedial options for the site. In particular, the report does a verygood Job applying the specific review criteria to each alternative. Based onit* review, the Department has concluded that Alternative V is potentially anAcceptable remedial option for the site. As discussed later, there areconcerns about the long term reliability of an artificial membrane without abackup infiltration barrier. In addition, the Department has concluded thatAlternative VI, AC proposed, is an acceptable measure. While not providingLhe same level of infiltration control as other options, this alternative doesinclude the range of source control actions necessary to adequately addresssite concerns. The Department believes both Alternatives V and VI can beretained for future review and discussion. The remaining four options are notrecommended by the Department to be carried forward for further review for thevarious reasons stated below.

Tn addition to these introductory remarks, the Department has the followinggeneral and specific comments on the memo.

eneral

1) In reviewing the first 18 pages of the report, a number ot specificdesign details were noted. Specifics such as trench spacing, depth ofcutoff wall, trench depth, number of extraction wells per cell, blowersizing, number of vent pipes, eec. «ro given. Th« Department interpret*all of these to be estimates only and that the exact design details willbe developed during the remedial design phase. The Department wants tobe clear that it is not agreeing to the specific design details discussedin this tech memo. Rather, we are agreeing to remedial approaches to brused.

'}) The Department appreciates the complete evaluations done on each of theproposed alternatives. The explanation and application of the reviewcriteria is consistent with what is expected in the CERCLA process. Thepresentation of the evaluations made the Departments review of theremedial options very easy.

Specific Comments

Page 8, before the Department can make a final decision on the acceptability.of Cover A, more information on the proposed compacted soil layer is needed.Technical memos 1, 2 and 3 present a large volume of physical data describingthis existing cover material (I.e. soil depth, grain size curves, moisturedensity curves, etc.). The Department would like an interpretation of thisda La to describe what the characteristics of this compacted native soil layerwould be. Issues such «s degree of compaction, resulting permeability, soil

, lover thickness, etc. need to be addressed. The extent to which this soil' Uyor will provide a "backup" infiltration barrier Is a key criteria in

Department decision making. Also, more detailed information on the syntheticmaterial proposed for use Is needed.

The performance level of Cover A, as shown in Table 1, makes It an attractivealternative. However, concerns on long term effectiveness and the possibleneed for a secondary barrier need to b« resolved. (Please see Attachments Aand B for further discussion of the proposed use of Cover A).

I'nge 11, during the remedial design phase specific supporting information willha needed to document the proposed trench spacing and construction. There is

- a concern that the 2-foot proposed trench depth may not adequately address gasI concentrations deep In the fill. There nay be a need to use extraction wells* tti areas outside of cells 6 and 12. Also, there Is a concern that the

proposed 300-foot spacing may be too wide to adequately control gas

I conditions. Lastly, the detailed design will need to discuss handling^-/ condensate orodueed durinc «v«fAtn ftr»*r«Hnn.condensate produced during system operation

Page 19-26, these pages provide a good discussion of the review criteria andtheir proper use In evaluating remedial alternatives.

Page 26. Alternative I does not reduce Infiltration through the site and doesnot. adequately address the remediation needs for cells 6 and 12.Consequently, this alternative Is not acceptable to the Department. Theevaluation on pages 26-32 does a very good job of highlighting strengths andweaknesses of this proposal. Based on this review, the Department believesthis alternative does not satisfactorily remediate known site conditions andrecommends that it not be further reviewed during the Feasibility Study.

PaRe 32-39, Alternative II is an incremental Improvement over Alternative Ihrrauso it includes Cover A. The Department has already expressed itsconcerns about the use of Cover A. This proposal also docs not providespecific remedial measures to deal with cells 6 and 12. The Departmentholleves additional source control measures beyond capping and the trench gas

extraction system are needed to remediate the contamination sources in cells 6and 12. Based on the RI data available, cells 6 and 12 are acting as majorgroundwater contamination source areas. Since Alternative II does not containspecific actions to remediate these cells, the Department does not believethis option is acceptable and should not be carried forward to the FeasibilityStudy stage.

Page 36, if the extraction system is operated at higher vacuum pressure, itIncreases the importance of having a continuous low permeability layer below tthe membrane cover. This continuous layer will help protect the membrane fromincreased stresses because .of the higher operating vacuums.

Page 38, there needs to be some supporting information given for the estimated2-year compliance period for NR 445 Vis. Adm. Code.

Pago 40, there is a typographic error. This section should be titledAlternative III.

Page 40, the drainage layer design will need to incorporate measures toprevent sloughing of saturated sideslopes.

Page 40-44, based on the HELP model evaluation of the various caps. Cover Bdoes not perform as well as Cover A or Cover B/C. Consequently, alternativesthat use Cover B alone are not as effective and therefore less acceptable. In,addition, Alternative III does not address the remediation needs of cells 6and 12.

Alternative III Is not an acceptable measure to the Department because of theshortcomings in infiltration reduction in comparison to the otherpossibilities and in the lack of specific remedial options for cells 6 and 12.

As with the narrative describing Alternatives 1 and II, the discussion ofAlternative III and the use of the evaluation criteria was well done.

Page 45, Alternative IV, while again an incremental improvement over thepreceding three options is not an acceptable measure -because of the lack ofattention given to cells 6 and 12. The use of cover B/C does provide for afurther reduction of water through cells 6 and 12. Therefore its proposed useis an acceptable infiltration control option. However, when used alone, itdoes not adequately address migration from cells 6 and 12. Consequently, useof cover B/C will need to be done in conjunction with other remedial measuresas proposed in Alternative VI. The Department recommends this alternative notreceive further review.

Page 49, as stated Alternative V is an improvement of Alternative II with tli«inclusion of extraction wells for cells 6 and 12 and the membrane cutoff wall.Thn Department believes this is possibly an acceptable alternative. Questionson the use of cover A need to resolved. Once the capping issues areaddressed, a final decision on this option will be made.

Page 50, it should be stated that the installation of active gas extractionwells will remove more contaminants from the depths of waste. This In turnprovides more migration control and Is consequently somewhat more protectivethan Alternative II.

Page 55, as proposed Alternative VI is an acceptable remedial measure. Thisoption addresses all the source control issues of concern. While notproviding the same level of infiltration control as Alternative V, there isimproved long tarn reliability of the proposed cover. This alternativeprovides for more contaminant removal from the waste mass, therefore is moreprotective than some of the previous options.

As stated earlier, the Department believes either Alternatives V or VI arepotentially acceptable. This position is reaffirmed by comparative analysis .conducted on pages 60-64. Alternatives V and VI include the range of sourcecontrol measures needed to address releases from the site. Each of the

I rejected options, while having individual strong points, do not completelyaddress the source control problem. Consequently, the Department believesAlternative V and VI can be retained for consideration and additional

I evaluation.

The Department has no specific comments on Appendices A, B, C or D.

This completes the Departments review of this memo. If you have questions orconcerns, please contact me directly.

Chuck Wilk - April 4, 1991 ' 5.

Attachment A

On March 19, 1991 WDNR staff visited the landfill to preliminarily evaluatethe feasibility of a synthetic membrane cap at the site. Based on initialobservations site slopes appear compatible with the use of a synthetic cap. .Also, during on site discussions, it was concluded that installation of thegas collection and vapor extraction trenching and piping would need to be donebefore the cap was placed. It is believed this would help address the concernof fitting the pipes through the cover and preventing any possible leakagearound the pipes. Also, it was noted that the level of gas production wouldhave to be reviewed to insure that excessive methane production would notcause long term problems with the cap. Furthermore, it was discussed that

\^> since the fill was fairly shallow (approximately 15-22 feet thick) andrelatively old (last waste filled in 1977) that differencial settling is notexpected to be a major problem. Lastly, the issue was raised of the need forreference information on the use of synthetic materials as caps ac other solidAnd hazardous waste disposal facilities.

Attachment^ B

The following narrative was provided by WDNR Central Office staff concerningthe proposed cover types. It provides a good discussion of Departmentconcerns specific to the proposed use of Cover A.

Different cover options are provided; cover A, cover B, cover B/C. and coverC. The upper components of these caps are the sama; the caps differ in thelov permeability barriers provided. Cover A provides a geontembrane over theexisting cover as the low permeability barrier (with estimated saturated

, hydraulic conductivity of 3.2 x ID"4) and uses the HELP model to estinateinfiltration through this cap. It is not clear how these values were derived,or how the interaction between the membrane and the lower soil layer wasmodeled. Flow through holes in geomembranes is dependent upon characteristicsof the underlying materials. A major assumption of the HELP model is that

, flow occurs only through soil pores. With the existing cap, significantfractures and macro-structure are likely to present. Flow through this macro-structure may not behave as porous media flow and it may not be appropriate f.omodel this flow using porous media assumptions. It is unlikely that theexisting cap presents a continuous permeability of 3.2 x 10* cm/sec. 1understand that the existing cover may meet the NK 500 materialspecifications, but does not meet placement specifications. The clay layermust meet both the soil specifications and placement specifications. I do notbelieve that compaction of the existing cap could effectively eliminate themacro-structure such that a consistent 1 x 10*T hydraulic conductivity would bepresent across the entire cap. Without the re-working of the existing coversuch that the macro-structure is removed. Uii» cap would noc be aa effectiveas is presented in the discussion of this alternative. I believe it isnecessary to strip the existing cover, test the material, and replaceacceptable clay soils in thin lifts such that the completed clay layer meetsplacement specifications throughout the 2 foot depth, prior to placement of Amembrane. Also, it ia unknown how much additional settlement will followClipping of this landfill. A low-permeability soil layer Is necessary belowthe membrane to not only limit Infiltration through membrane holes, but toprovide redundancy should settlement strain exceed the membrane eanacltv.

Nine alternatives have been proposed for potential application to the GCOU. Each alternative includes zoning/deedrestrictions and ground-water monitoring. Alternatives 1*3, 5 and 7*9 include an extraction well system. Alternatives 1-2 and7-8 include air stripping. Alternatives 1-3 and 7-9 Include discharging treated ground water to a local stream. Alternative 5proposes discharge of untreated or pre-treated ground water to a local publicly-owned treatment works fPOTW"). Alternatives1 and 7 call for catalytic oxidation of treatment emissions. Alternatives 2 and 8 call for activated carbon absorption oftreatment emissions. Centralized carbon absorption of contaminated ground water is proposed in Alternative 3: activatedcarbon absorption at individual wells is proposed in Alternative 4. (Activated carbon absorption of treated ground water isproposed as "effluent polishing' in Alternatives 7 and 8.) lit-situ bio-remediation is proposed in Alternative 6. Above groundbio-treatment is proposed in Alternative 9.

A. Zoning, fencing/Deed RestrictionsEach of the proposed GCOU alternatives includes proposals to restrict access to the site by means or zoning

regulations, fencing requirements and deed restrictions. The ARARs pertinent to such proposals were listed in mymemorandum on 12/26/90, but are restated here for convenience:

Technical Memorandum 68

General Comment#1 Any groundwater remedial action taken at the site must be able to comply with the preventive action limits

set in ch. NR 140. Wis. Adm. Code. The compliance point for this site is the waste boundary. Ifcompliance with preventive action limits is proven not to be technically and economically feasible asspecified in s. NR 140.24, Wis. Adm. Code, the lowest technically and environmentally feasible ground-water concentration shall be achieved. In no case can the target cleanup level exceed state enforcementstandards.

For parameters for which no ch. NR 140, Wis. Adm. Code standard exists, the cleanup standard shall bebackground concentration*. If achievement of background concentrations is proven not to be technicallyand economically feasible, the lowest technically and economically feasible concentrations shall beachieved as the cleanup standards.

RESPONSE: The assertion that the point of compliance is the waste boundary is contrary to thepromulgated regulations of Wisconsin. Since there has been no assertion of affirmative evidence thatthe landfill contents are RCRA hazardous, a design management zone (DMZ) of 0 feet is inapplicable.Rather, a DMZ of 300 feet, or the limit of property ownership, in accordance with WAC NR 140.22 -point of standards application would seem to be applicable. If a non-promulgated Department ofNatural Resources (DNR) policy or guideline requires compliance at the waste boundary, it should becited as a TBC; ARARs are reserved for promulgated standards.

It should be noted for the administrative record that there exists no evidence that thePreventative Action Limits (PAL) standards or even all the Enforcement Standards (ES) are technicallyattainable. In fact, the presiding definitive work on ground-water remediation (Kerr Research Lab inAda. Oklahoma) has indicated that such standards cannot be achieved within the limits of existingtechnology.

i

General Comment#2 tt must be understood that all afr emissions from both source control and ground-water control remedial

measures must comply with the toxic air emissions criteria In ch. NR 445. Wis. Adm. Code. Thetechnologies retained for air emission control must meet the mandated performance levels.

The Department's concurrence with any remedial action to be taken at the site will be based oncompliance with ARARs. The performance criteria in ch. NR 140 and ch. NR 445, Wis. Adm. Code, arecritical criteria to be used in evaluating the adequacy of any remedial measures.

RESPONSE: Comment noted; no response.

Page 11 On this page and In several other locations in the technical memo, the term 'regulatory limits" is used.This term need to be specifically defined. For ground-water quality the regulatory limits are the preventiveaction limits contained in ch. NR 140, Wis. Adm. Code.

RESPONSE: Comment noted; no response.

Page 11 The regulatory concentrations that should be used to evaluate the significance of ground-waterconcentrations are preventive action limits - not enforcement standards. State ground-water law netspreventive action limits as the triggering levels for initiating response activities.

Page 19 The conclusion that there is no landfill gas production and low gas pressures needs to be verified with fielddata. There have been past complaints from nearby residences about "smells' around Grass Lake. Itseems possible these odors are landfill gas migrating towards the topographic low of Grass Lake.

RESPONSE: Data collected and evaluated to date are presented in section 4.1.1 of TechnicalMemorandum No. 3A. April 12, 1991. The data indicate that the occurrence and venting of volatilegases Is minimum. WMWI concurs that additional data will be collected.

Odors are likely attributable to Bad Fish Creek. The discharge of which ispredominantly effluent from the Madison sewage treatment plant (24 to 52 million gallons per day).PELA personnel, while reading staff gages and stream gaging, have noted malodorous effluvium at BadFish Creek. In addition. Grass Lake comprises a water body and swamp where generation andmigration of natural organic gases can occur.

Page 20 In a practical sense, source control measures will likely reduce contaminant migration from the landfill -not completely preclude any transport.

RESPONSE: Comment noted; no response.

Page 21 This page provides a good summary of the status of the ground-water studies and the conclusions thatcan be reached to date. The Department would like to see a proposed timeline for completing theadditional studies proposed at the bottom of the page.

RESPONSE: WMWI is currently considering technologies researched at other sites and will addresstreatability in detail in Technical Memorandum No. 9B and the Draft FS (GCOU).

Testing to determine aquifer characteristics and the area of influence from ground waterwithdrawal will be addressed In the Remedial Design (RD) Phase.

Page 24 This section on environmental monitoring correctly states that monitoring surface water and groundwaterquality are used to assess the performance of the remedial action. The concept of monitoring needs tobe expanded for both operable units to include * monitoring the performance of active source controlalternatives and the active gas collection system. If a technology is chosen to actively remediate cells 6and 12, such as vapor extraction, a monitoring program to assess the effectiveness of the remediation willbe required. Monitoring source contaminant concentrations in the waste before, during, and after theremediation will be essential to evaluating system performance.

RESPONSE: Waste Management of Wisconsin, Inc. agrees that the concept of separate monitoringsystems and objectives needs to be expanded further in the Feasibility Study (FS) documents, but onlyto the extent that the monitoring goals and data quality objectives are defined. The actual details of themonitoring program should be addressed in the remedial design (RD) phase.

U.S. EPA CommentsTechnical Memorandum 9a

General Comments!1. The SCOU Draft Feasibility Study Report should carry-

Alternative 1 (No-Action) , Alternative V and Alternative vithrough evaluation against the nine evaluation criteria.These Alternatives were selected because; (a) Alternative iis a No-Action alternative and required to be carriedthrough as a baseline, and (b) Alternatives V and VI includeactive remediation of landfilled waste in Cells 6 and 12.

2. Although costs presented are included for discussionpurposes only, costs presented for each alternative inAppendix C should be identical to costs presented for thesame alternative in the text. Several discrepancies existand should be corrected.

Specific Comments;

1. page 8, paragraph 2, Section 3.2.1.2, Cover A - Synthetic

Alternative V includes the use of Cover A. Cover A does not.meet the Wisconsin Administrative Codes [NR 504.07 or NR181.44(13)]. Cover A consists of a 1 - foot thicX compacted,clay layer. The code requires a 2 - foot clay layer.Alternative V may continue to be considered if theperformance of the 1 - foot thick compacted clay layer canbe further verified.

2. page 10, Table 1, summary of Cost Effectiveness of theCapping Alternatives

The U.S. EPA Hydraulic Evaluation of Landfill Performance(HELP) model should be used to estimate the infiltrationrate for the current landfill covers. The infiltration ratefor the current conditions would serve as a comparisonbetween proposed covers and existing conditions. If it wereto be determined that a proposed cover provides no moreprotection than the current cover, then this would be abasis for eliminating the proposed cover.

3. page 13, paragraph 2, Section 3.2.5.1, Purpose

Further discussion detailing the landfill gas extractionsystem monitoring program should be included. For example,sampling intervals, duration of sampling, contaminants to besampled and the permissible limits. The cost should becalculated and added to all alternatives using themonitoring program

4. page 26, paragraph 1, Section 5.1.1, .Description

The text states that pulsed extraction of the landfill gasmay be effective for approximately two years. Furtherexplanation and/or calculations substantiating this estimateshould be included within the document.

5. page 26, paragraph 2, Section 5.1.1, Description

The first sentences states that runoff from the landfilldrains into nearby ponds or streams. This statements ispartially incorrect* Runoff may drain into Badfish Creekbut may not drain into nearby ponds. This statement shouldbe corrected.

fi. page 29, paragraph 2, Section 5.1.5.2, fonount of HazardousMaterials Destroyed or Treated

The operational life of the active landfill gas extractionand combustion system should be indicated.

v. page 37, paragraph 4, Section 5.2.6.1, Risks to communityDuring Remedial Action

Further explanation/details regarding air contaminantmonitoring at the site boundary should be included. Theduration/intervals of monitoring should be stated.

8. page 40, Section 5.3, Alternative III

Alternative III is incorrectly labelled as Alternative II.This should be corrected.

9. page 49, paragraph 1, Section 5.4.8.1, gapital Costs

The installation costs for Cover B are presented in thecapital cost estimate for Alternative IV. This alternativeactually stipulates use of the combination Cover B/C. Thistypographical error should be corrected.
