Case Studies

Students enrolled in the Environmental Biotechnology (BIOL2324/BIOL2370) course have been using RemScan to measure the effectiveness of bioremediation as part of their practical laboratory training. Bioremediation is a simple, low-cost, and environmentally safe method for cleaning up total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) in soil. It uses natural microorganisms in the soil to break down the TPH […]

TMK Consulting Engineers invited RemScan to examine a potentially hazardous site where a hopper had been linked to a waste oil storage tank by a pipe suspected of leaking mixed hydrocarbons onto the soil below. RemScan Spill Response Mode was used to provide timely measurements of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH) concentration in the soil. Sampling

Introduction Accurate measurement of Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) is essential for agriculture, environmental management and climate change mitigation efforts. Ziltek recently participated in a project aimed to lower the cost of and enhance SOC measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) processes, particularly in the medium to high rainfall regions of southwest Western Australia. This initiative was driven
