The flexAEM Remediation
Calculator Toolkit has been revamped and now includes a 12th
calculator for the design or optimization of a high permeability interceptor trench
containing multiple sumps. This new calculator provides a lot of flexibility
when considering a trench remediation design. Our original trench calculator was
designed to simply and quickly determine what extraction rate is required to maintain
heads in a trench. The new Interceptor Trench with Sumps calculator can be used
to perform a more detailed analysis of trench geometry, trench-fill material
properties, and sump locations. For example, the new calculator can help you
determine the permeability that will be required to maintain flow to the sumps,
the number of sumps needed and their optimal placement for differing lengths of
trench, and extraction rates required to maintain water levels in and around
the trench. The new calculator can be used to simulate a trench of any size or
shape, as shown below.
11 other great calculators are also included in the
Remediation Calculator Toolkit, which can be used to design and evaluate
groundwater extraction systems, vertical barrier and well systems, permeable
reactive barriers, and more. For more information feel free to Contact Us, or visit
