The RISCO technology was developed and validated in collaboration with the main project partner, DEKONTA, within the research project VaV funded by the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic (project FR-TI1/244). It is based on the sequential in-situ application of a surfactant and a strong oxidant (activated persulfate). It is particularly suitable for remediating hot spots of groundwater contamination with chlorinated hydrocarbons where a free phase is present. The technology's effectiveness was confirmed through four pilot-scale applications.
