Description  Back to Top

REMChlor (Remediation Evaluation Model for Chlorinated Solvents) is an analytical solution for simulating the transient effects of groundwater source and plume remediation. In the analytical method, the contaminant source model is based on a power function relationship between source mass and source discharge, and it can consider partial source remediation at any time after the initial release. The source model serves as a time-dependent mass flux boundary condition to the analytical plume model, where flow is assumed to be one-dimensional. The plume model simulates first order sequential decay and production of several species, and the decay rates and parent/daughter yield coefficients are variable functions of time and distance. This approach allows for flexible simulation of enhanced plume degradation that may be temporary, limited in space, and which may have different effects on different contaminant species in the decay chain. Cancer risks posed by carcinogenic species in the plume are calculated assuming that the contaminated water is used in a house for drinking, bathing, and other household uses.

Minimum System Requirements  Back to Top

To run REMChlor, you will need the following:

IBM PC/AT or compatible
Windows 98 or higher
Microsoft .Net Framework

Installation and Start-Up  Back to Top

Getting Started:

You will need the free Adobe Reader to view some of the files on this page. See EPA's PDF page to learn more about PDF, and for a link to the free Acrobat Reader.

Installing the Program:

If your operating system is older than Windows XP, you will need to download and install the following file:

This will install the Microsoft .Net Framework, which is needed to run REMChlor

If your system already has .Net Framework loaded you will not need this file.

There is one file to download to install REMChlor:

  1. Download the REMChlorsetup.exe file onto your harddrive.
  2. Run the REMChlorsetup.exe file. You will be guided through the installation process.
  3. The User's Manual (REMChlorsetup.pdf) comes with the installation and is accessible from within the program.
