Enhanced foam technology was used to quickly recover up to 60% of a DNAPL residual.
Low ▽P for foam propagation (<100 kPa m−1) compatible with shallow soils were used.
Surfactant first releases DNAPL then stabilizes gas as a foam that pushes the DNAPL.
Coupled with surfactant flushing recovery was up to 95% with liquid injected <2 PV.
