Clear-Well

 

Well Installation

Clear-Well installation is nearly identical to that of monitoring wells. The use of Clear-Well requires a single installation by a local driller using standard direct push techniques. Once installed, the optically transparent port can be surveyed repeatedly on demand.

Clear-Well is made of standard 2.5” nominal size PVC casing, custom machined to host a thick wall borosilicate (Pyrex) glass tube. 

 

Unmatched resolution to < 20µm

With a resolution about the thickness of a human hair, Clear-Well allows locations to be surveyed on demand with a portable instrument.

Each survey utilizes both white and UV lights, revealing detailed formation lithology that overlaps with the contaminant distribution. This type of information is key for understandingthe mechanisms driving LNAPL mobility and stability at field sites under changing conditions.

Additionally, surveying the exactsame locations allows for direct comparisons of data collected at different times.

Observations through the optically clear glass provide details of formation materials and contaminant distributions, allowing you to:

  • Quantify remedy performance and mass losses upon NSZD or an active remedy. 

  • Characterize LNAPL distribution changes upon water table fluctuations.

  • Identify LNAPL mobilization as sheens.

  • Document the release of biogas upon contaminant biodegradation.
