Groundwater contamination is rarely a sudden crisis. It is a slow-moving, often invisible process; one that becomes exponentially more expensive the longer it goes undetected. For operators, regulators, and environmental managers, the real risk isn’t just contamination itself. It’s the delay in understanding it. Early detection doesn’t just improve environmental ...

Approach: Site soil and groundwater were impacted with a variety of VOCs and non-standard SVOCs. ...
With snowmelt runoff, rising groundwater levels, and increased mobility in field conditions, spring is a critical window for collecting representative groundwater samples—especially in regions impacted by agricultural runoff or legacy contamination. A recent USGS study found that up to 95 million people in the U.S. may rely on ...
Environmental factors, including its persistence, mobility, and impact on non-target organisms, are critical considerations. Soil Persistence: Studies have shown that Pyroxasulfone exhibits moderate persistence in the soil, with a half-life ranging from 15 to 60 days depending on soil type and environmental conditions. ...
Industrial processes often generate wastewater that is challenging to handle due to its high pollutant volume, complex composition, and unpredictable variability. The complex and variable nature of effluent necessitates a thorough analysis of its physical and chemical characteristics. This analysis is the foundation for designing the most cost-effective and efficient treatment process for your ...

The traditional pump-and-treat solution has been applied to the remediation of PFAS-impacted groundwater, but it is expensive and can take decades to achieve any signifi cant levels of removal. ...
Generally speaking, geomembranes are located at the bottom of landfills, playing an isolation role, preventing waste from leaking at the bottom from contaminating groundwater, and reducing the negative impact on the ...
Client: Miller Homes Site Area: 3.03HA Location: Old Trafford, Greater Manchester Timeframe: 12 Months Challenge Design and delivery of a remediation strategy to treat extensive TCE-contaminated soil and groundwater, ready for development of 260 new homes. The derelict 3.03ha site had once been home to Manchester’s Itron gas meter factory, which opened its doors in 1933 ...
The subject site is a former dry cleaning facility in Northern Europe, where a large tetrachloroethylene (PCE) plume was impacting groundwater on and off-site. In 2017, CAT 100 and BOS 100® were applied as part of a large-scale remediation program. ...
Marshall Iron & Metal in the City of Marshall, Michigan, operated as a railroad maintenance yard from 1899 to 1931 and a foundry from 1938 to 1960. Most recently, it served as an auto salvage/metal scrapyard from 1961 to 1996. Excavation and disposal of soil and debris were completed in the fall of 2015. During these activities, light non-aqueous phase liquid (LNAPL) was observed in an ...
Introduction Plant nutrition is a critical aspect of sustainable agriculture, as it directly impacts the growth, development, and yield of crops. Traditional methods of fertilizer application often lead to over- or under-fertilization, resulting in poor plant growth or environmental pollution. ...

Synopsis: Finding ways to accommodate local regulations, challenges of mountain terrain, and anticipated growth of a village. Application: HighStrengthFAST® system on mountain terrain for a small village. ...
Enhancing groundwater availability through MAR India, as the largest user of groundwater globally, has been promoting managed aquifer recharge (MAR) over the past two decades to mitigate the negative impacts of extensive groundwater use. ...
A lack of rainfall in the region has also had a big impact on groundwater and river levels, while other parts of the country are also being warned that similar conditions are on the horizon for them, as ...
More than 60 percentage of groundwater in India is used for irrigation, whereas almost 85% of groundwater is used for drinking purposes. ...
The consequences of rising oil prices and the environmental impact of burning fossil fuels, such as the release of toxic chemicals and climate change, have led to a surge in biomass crops over the previous few decades. ...
Takeda Earthfx developed a 3-dimensional groundwater flow model to analyze the impacts of construction dewatering for the Southeast Collector (SEC) Trunk Sewer on groundwater and stream baseflow. ...

Site Summary BioLogix CL bioaugmentation was implemented in combination with dual phase extraction at an industrial site near Houston, Texas to remove trichloroethylene (TCE) from ground water. The overlying contaminated soil was excavated, but perched ground water and a deeper aquifer had TCE concentrations greater than 10,000 |jg/L A dual-phase vacuum extraction system was installed to control ...
