GeoPro Talks: Remote Controlled InSitu BioRemediation

In-Situ Bio-Remediation was completed following a fuel spill at a fuel bulk plant in Alberta. In collaboration with Clear Site Remediation, Langan trialed the deployment of a remote control remediation system entirely contained within a shipping container which can be operated and monitored remotely. Realtime water quality data from sondes deployed within the remediation zone […]
GeoPro Talks: Controlled Methane Injection Pilot Demonstration of a Biocover Concept for Mitigating GHG Emissions from Integrity Compromised Oil and Gas Wells

Well integrity failure is an expensive historic and ongoing issue associated with a subset of oil and gas wells. Failure manifests as surface casing vent flow (SCVF; inside casing leakage) and/or gas migration (GM; outside casing leakage) whereby natural gas (comprised primarily of methane) is potentially emitted to atmosphere causing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Remediation […]

GeoPro Talks: Optimizing Remediation Portfolios using Decision Science and Project Management

Dan and Tim will introduce decision science tools and frameworks and use case studies to illustrate how adoption of decision science tools combined with project management processes can be employed to optimize remediation portfolios. Case studies will illustrate how teams can shape projects and portfolios that achieve multiple owner, regulator, stakeholder and rights holder objectives, […]
GeoPro Talks: Latest Advancements in Data Integration and Automation in Environmental Science with Live Demos

In today’s data-driven world, decision-makers in environmental monitoring need seamless solutions that transform raw data from multiple sources into actionable insights. This presentation introduces a custom, open-source platform designed to automate the entire data pipeline—from ingestion and integration to analysis and decision-making. By unifying data from various sources, such as field sensors, GIS, and historical […]
GeoPro Talks: Unlocking the Power of Treatability Testing and QA/QC to Remove the Guess Work in Environmental Remediation

Bench-scale treatability testing is an important tool in remedial design. By testing various technologies, amendments and Site-specific variables on a small scale. Using site-specific soil and groundwater samples, this approach helps pinpoint the most efficient treatment strategies— potentially reducing costs and minimizing risks in full-scale implementation. However, bench-scale testing is only part of the equation—quality […]
GeoPro Talks: Controls of Mercury Concentrations in Fish

An overview of factors and processes known to influence concentrations of mercury in fish, with a focus on lake ecosystems in northern regions.
GeoPro Talks: PFAS Visualization for Site Characterization and In-Situ Remediation Assessment

Several case studies at U.S. military sites are presented to demonstrate the benefits of PFAS visualization using radial diagram and stacked bar maps for site characterization, in-situ remediation monitoring, and forensic assessments. The use of PFAS ratios and specialized methods for visualizing TOP assay results on a site map are discussed.
GeoPro Talks: Adopting Digital Tools for Sustainable Remediation

Contaminated sites present unique challenges that require tailored approaches to investigation and remediation. Conceptual site models are conventionally based on snapshots of site conditions, but understanding how contaminant distributions evolve in the subsurface can provide deeper insights. Digital tools based on fundamental physical transport and biodegradation reactions can enhance these models and support decision-making. This […]
GeoPro Talks: Incorporating In Vitro Bioaccessibility for Arsenic and Lead in Soil in Human Health Risk Assessment

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) defines bioavailability as the fraction of an ingested dose that crosses the gastrointestinal epithelium and becomes available for distribution to internal target tissues and organs. Bioavailability data can be used to provide realistic information on potential health effects of contamination and modify site-specific soil clean-up levels. Bioavailability is […]
