52,000 GALLONS LATER, BLACKHAWK PISTON PUMPS CONTINUE TO GO 140 FEET DEEP TO CLEAN UP MASSIVE GASOLINE SPILL – AND BLACKHAWK’S LNAPL RECOVERY TIP IS KEY TO KEEPING COSTS DOWN AND RECOVERY RATES HIGH!
Initially air-lift pumps were used in the eleven 4-inch diameter recovery wells. These were able to recover liquid from the 140-foot depth where the free product plume was located. However, these pumps recovered both product and groundwater, which was undesirable.

Three Years and 11,000 Gallons Later, Anchor Piston Pumps Keep on Removing Manufactured Gas Plant Tar In Quantity from Depths to 32 Ft. Below Grade
Thick, viscous, oily, and sticky, coal tar tops the list in the field of contaminated site remediation and source recovery when it comes to being the ugliest and most stubborn substance to clean up in quantity. Due to the difficult nature of coal tar, initial recovery efforts at the 30-acre Calhoun Park Area Superfund Site in the historic harbor district in Charleston, SC, which began in 1998, were skimpy and sporadic until March 2001...

"Blackhawk Piston Pumps
have the controls on the top, so they are very easy to install,
inspect, trouble shoot and maintain. No other pump that we tried
can compare to this positive displacement piston pump when it
comes to the effective recovery of a thick, oil liquid like
coal tar."

"The reason why Anchor
Pumps are such an excellent choice for us
revolves around a major design feature of the pumps. Not only
are they ideal for pumping hot, dirty, slimy materials, especially
leachate and landfill gas condensates, Anchor Pumps are designed
with the entire pump drive mechanism, including the controls,
on top of the wellhead, so we can see at a glance whether the
pump is working or not."

"The Blackhawk Electric
Anchor Pump 102E is working well for us and doing exactly
what it is supposed to do. The pump captures methane gas condensate
from the leachate sump collection system prior to the gas
going to flare. No liquid can go to the flare as it will extinguish
the flame."

"We knew
we had to find pumps that could pump sticky, viscous material.
The tar refining company was familiar with Blackhawk Environmental
Co. and their pneumatic top head jack pumps, and suggested
we contact them. Based on their previous success in providing
solutions for recovering coal tar, the folks at Blackhawk
understood the problem and were confident they had the pumps
that could handle the situation."
