Remediation system and method based on pollution obstruction for underground water with DNAPL pollutant

A remediation system based on pollution obstruction for underground water with DNAPL pollutant is provided, including a vertical obstructing wall, a pump-out treating unit and a recharging unit, wherein the vertical obstructing wall is distributed at the periphery of a polluted area to obstruct the polluted underground water in the vertical obstructing wall; the pump-out treating unit includes a plurality of water pumping wells and overground treatment facility that are distributed in the polluted area, the plurality of the water pumping wells are configured to pump the polluted underground water out and sending it into the overground treatment facility so as to be treated; the recharging unit includes a plurality of recharging wells, and water treated by the overground treatment facility is recharged into a target aquifer in the polluted area by the plurality of the recharging wells. A remediation method using the system is provided.

Spreader for sediment capping system and method

A sediment capping system is adapted to create, and distribute, a homogenized mixture of capping material. Where distributing the capping material, the system is configured to militate against the capping material forming clumps of a size and weight that would disturb the sediment on a bottom of a body of water. This in turn militates against the sediment being disturbed, and a disturbing of pollutants and toxins into the water surrounding the sediment. The sediment capping system militates against the clumping of capping material through a vibrating spreader and baffle system, producing a sediment cap with a more consistent depth that will minimally disturb the sediment on the floor of the body of water where the sediment cap is being deposited.

Coalification and carbon sequestration using deep ocean hydrothermal borehole vents

Systems and methods are described for sequestering carbon stored in organic matter while minimizing the release of carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) and methane (CH.sub.4) into the atmosphere, with the carbon (C) being stored as char or coal through the coalification process. Organic matter will be moved to submarine hydrothermal vent fields where the extreme heat in the water will drastically accelerate the degradation of the material and destroy microbes that normally consume the organic material and release the carbon as CO.sub.2 or CH.sub.4. The oxygen level in the heated water around the vents is extremely low. The water surrounding these vents can reach temperatures of 400° C. (750° F.). Exemplary implementations may include constructing hydrothermal borehole vents to harness the energy continuously released from the Earth's core in the form of volcanic heat.

SEQUESTERING BIOMASS IN WATER

Buoyant matter, and particularly biomass such as seaweed, is sequestered deep in a body of water, fey causing the matter to lose it buoyancy and sink and remain sunk for an extended period. In some examples, the matter is pumped to below a depth at which is loses its natural buoyancy as a result of the ambient water pressure resulting in it naturally sinking to the bottom.
