Management of Contaminated Sites
Non-intrusive assessment of environmental conditions to identify and/or discard potential contamination. Helps select areas and narrow resources for further studies, if needed.
Assessment of environmental conditions via sampling and lab tests. Helps identify and define the extent of potential contamination, allowing resources to be efficiently managed during subsequent studies, if required.
Quantitative assessment of risk to human health or the environment generated by the potential presence of pollutants. Establishes site-specific cleanup requirements via mathematical modeling. Helps managing resources in case remedial actions are needed.
Identify and select technologies that will help achieving cleanup objectives efficiently. Detailed engineering design, construction and operation of remediation systems until the site closure, including appropriate regulatory approvals.
Environmental Management
Assessment, design and installation of processes and facilities to improve environmental management. Includes prevention, control and mitigation measures to manage adverse environmental effects and implementing management indicators, training programs and emergency plans.
Design and installation of control systems for early impact detection. Includes designing and installing monitorin
g wells, and conducting sampling and test analysis at detailed engineering level, in addition to regulatory approvals and system maintenance.
Development of written technical guidelines on environmental management of variables and components such as soil, water, waste, noise and hazardous substances, among others.
Develop and implementation of written technical guidelines to mitigate environmental side effects of industrial development, ensuring physical and chemical stability of facilities, protecting life and ensuring the health and safety of people and the environment once activities have ended.
Management of Water Resources
Hydro-geological and hydrological assessment of the potential of a basin and/or water system. Field, laboratory and geophysical techniques to identify water resources and focus on the subsequent use of such resources.
Detailed engineering design of wells, drains, intakes and other water extraction facilities. Includes selection and assessment of technical and economic feasibility of available extraction technologies. Support in the selection of contractors and/or development of turn-key projects.
Detailed engineering design, development and assessment of hydraulic tests to determine water extraction rates. Includes site-specific mathematical modeling.
Multi-dimensional indicators of direct and indirect water use for the development of a product or activity. Includes all the stages of the production chain.
