Simultaneously enhanced surfactant flushing of diesel contaminated soil column and qualified emission of effluent
Seven surfactants were selected as candidate agents for in situ soil column flushing. Column flushing lacks the interaction between surfactants and contaminants, so efficiency is not easy to improve. Microbubbles generated in situ may adhere to the contaminant diesel. Thereafter, the bubbles were mobilized to lift the multi-system oil to the top layer. This process must be attributed to the increased column flushing efficiency of diesel removal. Compared with a single solution, using randomly methylated beta-cyclodextrin (RAMEB) and microbubble enhancement, the diesel removal of column flushing increased by 30.7%. Compared with the existing conditions (5.25 × 10−4 cm s−1), the hydraulic conductivity of loam soil (3.74 × 10−3 cm s−1) increased by 7.1 times after the continued operation of the two processes. The oil layer was collected for further reuse. After three treatments, the effluent for the RAMEB was more than 85%. The collected effluent was treated with a synthetic absorbent and then qualifiedly discharged with a TOC value of only 2.6 mg L−1. By combining surfactant flushing with microbubbles and other equipment, not only can the reaction time be effectively saved, but organic pollutants could be concentrated and reused in the soil, so no additional treatment was required.
