Bilag HTHERMAL PESTICIDE STUDYFOR THE CHEMINOVA PLANT IN DENMARKTEST PLANKEMRON developed the Denmark Thermal Pesticide Study scope of work inaccordance with the information presented to KEMRON by TerraTherm. The treatabilitystudy, as outlined below, will be performed to identify buffering capacity, alkalinehydrolysis, and thermal treatment of the site materials. Specific compounds of concerninclude pesticides and mercury. The following sections of this scope of work presentinformation regarding the protocols that will be followed in completing the treatabilitystudy.The treatability study will be conducted on soils and waters provided by TerraThermfrom the site located in Denmark. The treatability study, as outlined herein, will beperformed in order to collect data for TerraTherm to characterize the site material’sbuffering capacity and potential to thermally treat contaminants. Throughout the courseof this study KEMRON will complete the treatment protocols and sample extractionactivities as stated in this test plan. Sample extracts and test waters will be shipped toCheminova for sample analysis of pesticides and polar compounds, respectively.Mercury in the related soils will be tested at the KEMRON laboratory located in MariettaOhio. Treatment effectiveness will be assessed by TerraTherm since KEMRON is notcurrently tasked with receiving the analytical data from the Cheminova analyses.SAMPLE RECEIPT AND UNTREATED MATERIAL CHARACTERIZATIONAs outlined by TerraTherm, KEMRON understands that one site ground water samplematerial and two site soil materials will be collected for treatability testing. Based on theanticipated scope of work outlined herein, KEMRON believes that one five-gallon bucketof each of the untreated site soils and one five-gallon bucket of the site groundwater willbe sufficient to complete the treatability study as outlined.Upon receipt, the untreated materials will be logged in and placed into refrigeratedsecure storage (maintained at a temperature of 4 o C). Sample homogenization willfollow material receipt, where instruction will be given from TerraTherm as to which ofthe soil materials to initially prepare for testing. Soil homogenization will include placingthe chilled site soil into a stainless steel mixing basin followed by gentle mixing usinglow energy mixing techniques.252CHEMINOVA – TERRATHERM Page KEMRON ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, INC.APPLIED TECHNOLOGIES GROUP
