Decontamination of a service station affected by free-phase diesel

Context and Problem Origin: 

• March 2022: detection of free-phase hydrocarbons at control points P1, P7, P8, and P10 
• Probable origin: historical spills in the tank bund and leaks due to poor sealing 

Actions Undertaken: 

  1. DAO and Excavation 
    o Removal of old tanks and piping 
    o Excavation and soil management (550.08 t – LER 17 05 04) 
    o Installation of a new tank area 
  1. Active Decontamination (since June 2024) 
    o Installation of Pump & Treat system 
    o Total water pumped until December 2024: 133.32 m³ 
    o Targeted surfactant injections in the central zone 

Monitoring and Follow-up 

o VOC readings and piezometric level measurements 
o Quarterly analyses required by ACA 
o Monitoring and compliance with RQs issued by ACA and ARC 
o Analytical campaigns: August and November 2024 
▸ Exceedance of indicative levels (NI) for TPHs, benzene, and BTEX 
o Millimetric concentrations detected at P1 and P8 (Nov. 2024 and Jan. 2025)
