Installation
RPI’s revolutionary Trap & Treat® approach was designed to remove contamination quickly, safely, and effectively. Trap & Treat® products are installed by RPI-Group Approved Installers, who provide turnkey installations (products and injection labor included). Learn more about RPI-Group here.
Consultants or property owners who wish to use an injection contractor that is not currently an RPI-Group member must consult with an RPI-Group member regarding the project design. Your contractor will be contacted by an RPI-Group member who will communicate the proper procedures and equipment necessary for a successful installation. After consultation with RPI-Group, your contractor may be invited to begin the training process. In the scenario just described, consultants or property owners would buy the products from RPI-Group members only.
Process
All Trap & Treat® products are mixed with water to form a slurry, which is either injected into the subsurface using traditional direct push technology and pumps or placed directly into source area excavations. We recommend that pumps generating at least 300-500 psi of downward pressure be used.
Safety
All Trap & Treat® products are safe and non-toxic…while not recommended, you could sprinkle them on your food and come away unscathed! Though our products are easy to clean off of work surfaces, they will soil clothing and cover skin with a fine black powder. For this reason, RPI recommends that installers wear suits and dust masks made of Tyvek® or comparable materials.
Suggested Equipment
- Direct push rig
- Pumping system
- Water and mixing tanks (mixers)
- Dust masks, hearing protection, Tyvek® suits, etc.
