18. A system for treating groundwater and/or soil comprising:
-
a) two or more conduits for conducting two or more different reagents into said groundwater through a bore hole;
b) at least one injection port associated with each of said two or more conduits for dispensing said two or more different reagents, wherein at least two of said injection ports are at different points along the length of said bore hole;
c) a diffusion barrier placed in said bore hole between said at least two injection ports, preventing substantial contacting of at least two different reagents within said bore hole. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)

35. A system for treating groundwater and/or soil comprising:
-
a) two conduits for separately conducting a first reagent comprising hydrogen peroxide and a second reagent comprising ozone into said groundwater through a bore hole;
b) an injection port at the end of each conduit, wherein said injection ports are at different points along the length of said bore hole;
c) a diffusion barrier placed in said bore hole between said two injection ports, preventing substantial contacting of said hydrogen peroxide and said ozone within said bore hole prior to their diffusing out of said bore hole. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38)

39. A system for treating groundwater and/or soil comprising:
-
a) one conduit for conducting two or more different reagents into said groundwater through a bore hole;
b) one injection port associated with said conduit for dispensing said two or more different reagents;
c) a diffusion barrier placed in said conduit above said injection port, isolating reagent injection location to a minimum depth within the borehole. - View Dependent Claims (40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57)
-
- 67. A method of treating groundwater and/or soil comprising contacting two or more reagents, wherein said contacting occurs after said two or more reagents have diffused into said groundwater from separate conduits or separate points at an injection port within a single conduit, where said separate conduits or separate points are separated by a diffusion barrier.
