It is a common occurrence that your challenging remediation sites will also have contamination that is present in fractured bedrock. Accessing and characterizing these sites is complex compared to other sorts of site remediation. The goal of this class will be to...
The remediation of comingled plumes is a process that requires significant and accurate analytical data to assess both the scale of contamination with respect to where the pollutants originated from as well as what they are made of. This class will make you aware of...
Hexavalent chromium jumped into the national spotlight 30 years ago when Erin Brockovich sued a utility company for contaminating drinking water with this human health threat. From that moment on, there has been a groundswell of attention and effort to deal with and...
Successful remediation is built upon effective planning and analysis in order produce the desired outcome. In this class you will be taught means that will help you evaluate your site while also allowing you to choose the best technology for it. Designing the plan of...
InSitu Chemical Oxidation (ISCO) technologies continue to advance and are often less expensive alternatives to “dig & haul” approaches. But, what are the pitfalls of in-situ injection strategies and how can you optimize the remediation performance to save your...
This webinar will address that challenges you face with persistent low concentration levels for remediation projects. Biological degradation is a possible treatment approach, but are there new tools that you can use to achieve site closure? Kate Clark has a Ph.D. in...
The family of compounds known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) used in consumer and industrial manufacturing are persistent in the environment and are comprised of over 6,000 compounds. The most widely known compounds in this group are...
Evaluating the full life cycle of a remediation site at the beginning is important to understand the overall costs that will vary from project inception through operations and maintenance. If you’re not careful, you will find your budget quickly shrinks as you design,...
There are many tools that we could talk about regarding remediation and cost savings, but this webinar will focus on just two of them. 1) Ted Wittemann from Pine Environmental will give a technical presentation about their Global Telemetry Solutions (GTS™) that is a...
Soil contamination from potentially toxic elements has contributed to environmental harm all across the country. In this class, Dora and Bob will discuss soil amendments that will immobilize metals through cost-effective remediation techniques that fulfill green and...
Understanding site heterogeneity and collecting representative soil and groundwater data are key elements to selecting and designing the most effective remedial approach. In this class, Mike and Janet will present information that will benefit remediation and site...
In some scenarios, the combination of abiotic and biotic treatments can be an effective, cost efficient and timely remediation option. These techniques have been used to remediate both soil and groundwater and have been highly effective in in scenarios that have been...
Site remediation is complicated enough when there is only one contaminant on a site. Things only become more complicated when there are multiple contaminants at a site that require specific technologies to deal with each. In this class you will be introduced to...
Remediation at sites with fractured bedrock pose all sorts of challenges, especially when it comes to improving long-term groundwater quality. Historically speaking, these sites employed groundwater extraction and ex situ treatment (pump and treat) with little...
The pervasiveness of contaminated land throughout the world poses both financial, environmental and social implications for our world moving forward. Though the task is daunting, bioremediation shows great promise and utility in dealing with contaminants. In this...
1,4 Dioxane is a chemical that has been widely used as a stabilizer in chlorinated solvents. However, 1,4 Dioxane poses significant environmental challenges due to its persistent stability, mobility, solubility as well as being a probable human carcinogen. This...
The goal of remediation is to leave a given site in a better state than when you found it and this is best attained when utilizing methods and means that are holistic in nature. In this class you will learn about biostimulants that will establishing sustainable...
Having access to information while screening on the field is vital but so is having that information in the most accurate way possible. In this class you will be introduced to the most advanced field screening tools on the market today. We will also explore the...
Compound specific isotope analysis (CSIA) is an analytical method that measures the ratio of stable isotopes (13C/12C, 2H/1H, or 37Cl/35Cl) of a contaminant. CSIA results can provide conclusive proof of contaminant degradation, insight into degradation mechanisms,...
The great news about the environmental industry is that there is a plethora of options when it comes to equipment and technology to meet your site needs. We will begin this course by looking at Bio-Trap samplers in order to get an integrated view of what is happening...
Many of the chemicals that we use in our homes (such as medicines, hygiene products, and their chemical additives) are present in the environment and they create contamination at wastewater treatment plants, runoff from agricultural and urban land surfaces, and in...
