In case of an unusual situation, WWGeosciences can give insights based on 6 years of research and 19 years of consulting experience. Aquifer testing, groundwater flow, groundwater contamination, soil contamination, contaminant migration from soil to groundwater, vapor migration, and risk assessment are among the areas where WWGeosciences can help.
WWGeosciences is available for major projects and also is available on a retainer basis for rapid answers to technical questions.
Project Experience:
- Performed integrated evaluation of groundwater geochemistry, brine geochemistry, and site‑specific stratigraphy to distinguish sources of inorganic constituents.
- Modeled distribution of chemical species in aqueous solutions.
- Geochemical modeling of to predict chemical speciation in surface water and waste water to support design of a constructed wetland treatment system for industrial manufacturer.
- Determined interactive effects of solution composition, pressure, temperature, and flow rates on water-rock reactions in the geothermal environment and geochemical constraints on ore deposition.
- Experimentally simulated the water-rock interactions in a geothermal system.
- Located saline groundwater contamination using geophysical techniques.
- Developed in-house software for graphical evaluations of water chemistry.
- Performed feasibility studies for bioremediation of petroleum-contaminated soils.
- Performed site investigations, evaluated laboratory results, and used analytic and numerical modeling techniques to evaluate whether a site is clean or adequately remediated to satisfy criteria for release under state brownfields programs such as Ohio Voluntary Action Program and Pennsylvania Act 2.
- Assessed exposure and risk and drafted documents for response to RCRA, CERCLA, and state regulatory actions.
