The Department of Energy (DOE) has developed and demonstrated an in situ air stripping technique that utilizes horizontal wells to remove volatile organic solvents from soil and groundwater. The demonstration was part of the DOE's Savannah River Integrated Demonstration Program. At the site, an abandoned process sewer line leaked trichloroethylene and tetrachloroethylene into soil and groundwater.
