What is Remediation Cost Estimate? Remediation Cost Estimate (RCE) refers to a review of probable remediation costs necessary to achieve regulatory compliance for contaminated real estate. When Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) identifies the property as a site with potential contamination, remediation experts perform RCEs, giving the opinion of probable costs the purchaser or […]
Dual-Phase Extraction FAQs
Dual-phase extraction (DPE) is one of the most effective remediation methods, extracting pollutants from soil and groundwater on-site (in situ). DPE (also known as multi-phase extraction and bioslurping) system treats and collects removed liquids for disposal or injects them back into the subsurface. There are two general categories of DPE technologies: single and dual-pump DPE systems. […]
What Does an Environmental Consultant Do?
After decades of pursuing technological progress, unconcerned with side effects, humans have become increasingly aware of our fast-paced development and its impact on the environment. The unregulated industrial expansion has left scars on the ecosystem, such as air pollution, water pollution, climate change, soil contamination, etc. To minimize the consequences, governments introduced strict regulations, imposing […]
What are the Factors that Affect the Effectiveness of Soil Vapor Extractions?
What is a Soil Vapor Extraction System? Soil vapor extraction (SVE) is an in-situ remediation method used for cleaning up soil and removing vapor from below the surface. Vapor extraction occurs with the aim of treatment above the ground. Cleansing of vapor recovered from the subsurface involves recovering or destroying the pollutants. When contaminant chemicals […]
What Are The Misunderstandings Surrounding Phase 1 Environmental Reporting?
A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) report investigates a property’s current condition and historical use. Its purpose is the assessment of the potential liability of a new owner due to the presence of hazardous materials. It serves in real estate transactions such as land and building purchases, leases, and bank loans for commercial real […]
