EHC® Reagent

EHC® in situ chemical reduction (ISCR) Reagent is the original patented combination of controlled-release organic carbon and zero valent iron (ZVI) used for the treatment of groundwater and saturated soil impacted by persistent halogenated compounds, including chlorinated solvents, pesticides and organic explosives.
The EHC® Reagent formula is the culmination of years of research and successful field use. EHC® ISCR Reagent is comprised of a synergistic mixture of micro-scale ZVI and a solid organic carbon source, stimulating both abiotic and biotic dechlorination mechanisms.

Typical Applications

  • Injection of EHC® slurry via Direct Push Technology (DPT)
