Funnel & Gate
C3 Environmental Limited has installed several Funnel-and-Gate™ systems to passively treat contaminated groundwater. Waterloo Barrier® sheet piles act as the low permeable funnels, directing ground water towards the treatment gates. Each gate contains the specific remedial materials which treat the contaminants of concern as groundwater passively passes through them.
Field scale pilot test to determine the effectiveness of the Funnel & Gate system in treating chlorinated solvents using two different reactive media.
