Abstract
- Self-sustaining smouldering remediation successful in pilot field conditions.
- Experiments represent 1000-fold scale-up for two contaminants.
- Greater than 97-99.9+% remediation observed for self-sustaining smouldering.
- Process overcomes heterogeneities in airflow, contaminant distribution and material.
- Smouldering velocity scales with airflow.
