Waterloo Emitter™

The Waterloo Emitter™ is a simple, low cost device designed for the controlled release of oxygen or other amendments, to encourage and sustain the growth of microorganisms required for in-situ bioremediation of contaminated groundwater.

The patented technology* enables direct diffusion into an aquifer of fluids (gas or liquid) through silicone or LDPE tubing which is wrapped around a frame. The frame allows insertion of sampling or monitoring devices for down-hole monitoring of groundwater conditions and remediation performance.

Ideal for the bioremediation of BTEX and MTBE using oxygen and diffusion. The diffusive process provides immediate bioavailability of molecular oxygen for aerobic biodegradation enhancement, with no loss of amendment gas due to ‘bubbling’. The Waterloo Emitter can also enhance desirable abiotic reactions (pH adjustment, hydrolysis, etc.).
