Analysis and Visualization of Groundwater Contamination
This course is designed for a diverse audience, including scientists new to the field of environmental contamination, project managers, environmental policy and regulatory professionals, and environmental legal counsel. No mathematical background is required.
GeoPro Talks: Ex-Situ Thermal Desorption of Highly- Impacted Mercury Soils in an Urban Area
In-Situ and Ex-Situ Thermal Desorption (ISTD and ESTD) are technologies based on thermal conduction that can effectively treat organic contaminants, independently of large soil heterogeneity. One of its applications is for contaminated properties in urban areas and under existing buildings. The main principle of the technology resides in installing a network of steel pipes acting […]
GeoPro Talk: PFAS From a Legal Perspective
Description of current regulatory regime for PFAS and potential future approaches.
“2nd Annual Remediation Now Workshop – Focus on the Future: Challenging Current Perceptions and Assumptions in Contaminated Sites Management
The team of environmental experts at GeoEnviroPro invite you to join our annual one-day Remediation Now Workshop. The workshop will explore the leading edge of site investigation and remediation technologies, regulatory models, emerging contaminants, and other challenges and opportunities. This workshop will prioritize engaging and highly relevant content for young professionals, consultants, government, industry, students, researchers, and community groups. We plan to draw from technical, […]
GeoPro Talk: Soil Vapour Intrusion Investigation: Human Health Risk Assessment for a former Dry-Cleaning Facility
Presenting Soil Vapour Intrusion Investigation including topic introduction, vapour pin installation, ambient air and soil vapour sampling, results, and discussion. In the context of the site and aimed at completing a human health risk assessment.
GeoPro Talks: Online portal for forensic fingerprinting and understanding your Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) data
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous contaminants emanating from multiple sources in the environment. When conducting environmental monitoring of PAHs, it is imperative to examine sources of PAHs to know if they are coming from the source or sources you are investigating. This presentation will cover the fundamentals of what chemical fingerprinting of PAHs works, […]
GeoPro Talks: Contaminated Sites Regulation – still meeting today’s priorities?
Does the CSR and resources spent reflect society’s current risks and priorities? Discussion with a long time practitioner with an industry perspective.
GeoPro Talks: GRAFTA™, a graphene-based technology for multirange contaminant removal from water.
Introducing GRAFTA™, a novel patented graphene-based adsorbent for water and wastewater treatment and in-situ remediation. GRAFTA™ is graphene-based nanotechnology adsorbent, produced partly using waste material, utilizing the exceptional adsorption capacity of graphene and graphene oxide leading to a highly efficient, cost effective and scalable water and wastewater treatment and remediation solution. GRAFTA™ is a proven […]
GeoPro Talks: Why do Toxicity Reference Values (TRVs) Matter at My Contaminated Site?
A fundamental step in risk assessment is establishing what level of chemical contamination is safe. Toxicity reference values (TRVs) represent an exposure dose that people can safely be exposed to without adverse effects. Toxicity reference values are used to derive drinking water and soil quality guidelines, and to calculate hazard quotients (HQs) that determine risk […]
