Abstract: An intelligent situational awareness framework may be provided, which may facilitate ingesting the real-time data, persisting at least some of the real-time data on a storage device, analyzing the real-time data to derive at least one insight, and generating an output associated with the at least one insight for real-time visualization.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a remediation material uses a biogenic material as a substrate and involves preparing the surface of the substrate to enable a chemical reaction, and performing template-driven surface derivatization on the substrate to provide a net positive charge on the substrate. The remediation material may be placed into contact with surface water, ground water, soil, or sediment by at least one of a permeable reactive barrier, direct well injection, or direct introduction of the remediation material into soil or sediment, to remove contaminants from the surface water, ground water, soil, or sediment.

Abstract: A distributed monitoring and control system includes a plurality of nodes forming a redundant communication network. Each of the nodes includes a processor, a memory and a transceiver. At least one of the nodes includes a sensor for acquiring information. At least one of the nodes includes an actuator. At least one of the processors is programmed with a control algorithm to receive information acquired from the sensors, calculate a control command and communicate the control command to the actuators for execution.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a remediation material is disclosed. The method includes providing a biogentic material as a substrate, preparing the surface of the substrate for a chemical reaction, and performing template-driven surface derivitization on the surface of the substrate to provide a net positive charge on the surface of the substrate. The remediation material may be placed into contact with surface water, ground water, soil, or sediment by at least one of a permeable reactive barrier, direct well injection, or direct introduction of the remediation material into soil or sediment, to remove contaminants from the surface water, ground water, soil, or sediment.
