Abstract

An in-situ mycoremediation system and process is provided, including a device with a rod casing having a top end, a bottom end, and a sidewall with one or more perforations, the sidewall defining an internal channel that extends from an intake opening on the top end to the one or more perforations, a sleeve that extends around at least part of the rod casing and that is slidable between at least a first position that covers the one or more perforations and a second position that at least partly uncovers the one or more perforations, and a plumbing line linked to the intake opening and configured to facilitate forcible injection of one more fungal mixtures and/or air via the one or more perforations when the sleeve is in the second position.

Dependent claims

An injection device for remediation, the injection device comprising:

a rod casing having a sidewall with (i) a first portion toward a bottom end having a first outside diameter and (ii) a recessed segment toward a top end having a second outside diameter that is less than the first outside diameter, the recessed segment including one or more perforations located in the sidewall;
and
a sleeve that extends around at least part of the recessed segment of the rod casing, the sleeve being movable along a long axis of the rod casing between at least a first position that covers the one or more perforations and a second position that at least partly uncovers the one or more perforations, wherein the injection device is configured to inject one more remediation materials via the one or more perforations.
