Dynamic LNAPL Recovery for Heavy oil impacted site

the project focused on recovering free-phase kerosene from groundwater using the Dynamic LNAPL Skimming technology (Surfer). Three skimmers were installed at a depth of approximately 12 metres, enabling the recovery of around 1,136 litres of kerosene.
