Client Spotlight: Ben Christensen
For Ben Christensen, Project Manager/Professional Engineer with AECOM, pursuing a career which involved working outside and “getting my hands dirty” was a primary motivator. He shares, “I have completed multiple soil and groundwater investigations. I’ve also implemented groundwater and soil remediation by in situ chemical and bio-remediation injections, groundwater pump and treat systems, soil-vapor extraction (SVE) systems, bioventing, and excavation.” In his current role, he manages firm-fixed price projects at Nellis AFB, Offutt AFB, and Scott AFB, that include about 30 sites.

Performance-Based Objectives Achieved at Scott AFB
This case study reviews the Corrective Action Plan (CAP) at Scott Air Force Base, a large military base located in Southwestern Illinois that was contaminated with petroleum impacted soil. One month following the application of PetroFix®, contaminant levels reached non-detect. Benzene continued to remain non-detect through March 2020 and the site was recommended for no further action.
Apply Activated Carbon Under Low Pressure to Treat Petroleum Hydrocarbons
ISCO Solution Gets Sites to Closure Quickly
RegenOx® is an injectable, two-part ISCO reagent that combines a solid sodium percarbonate based alkaline oxidant (Part A), with a liquid mixture of sodium silicates, silica gel and ferrous sulfate (Part B), resulting in a powerful contaminant destroying technology. RegenOx directly oxidizes contaminants while its unique catalytic component generates a range of highly oxidizing free radicals that rapidly and effectively destroy a range of target contaminants including both petroleum hydrocarbons and chlorinated compounds.
Remediation Technology Tailored to the Petroleum Industry
ORC Advanced® is an engineered, oxygen release compound designed specifically for enhanced, in situ aerobic bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbons in groundwater and saturated soils. ORC Advanced technology and applications have been tailored around the remediation needs of the retail petroleum industry, and have resulted in decreased time to site closure, and degradation rates accelerated up to 100 times faster than natural degradation rates.
Upcoming PFAS Webinar – Sign Up Today!
In this webinar we are pleased to have as a special guest speaker Rick McGregor, President of InSitu Remediation Services Ltd. His presentation will discuss six pilot-scale studies evaluating the in situ treatment of PFAS in groundwater. This free webinar begins Wednesday, August 12th, 2020 at 11am pacific/2pm eastern.
Featured Article – Cleaning up ‘forever’ chemicals in drinking water not easy task
PlumeStop, a colloidal activated carbon remediation technology from REGENESIS, was recently featured in the Dayton Daily News because of its ability to eliminate risk from PFAS contaminants in groundwater at a low cost compared to other currently available treatment methods. Because PFAS is a growing concern for communities trying to protect public health, PlumeStop is increasingly being applied to halt the spread of PFAS plumes and quickly remove risk.

Upcoming Webinars – Register Today!
REGENESIS is pleased to announce our Summer and Fall 2020 Webinars. This series will feature three special guest presentations from distinguished professionals in the remediation industry. The topics of these webinars include innovative use of a preemptive vapor barrier, six pilot-scale studies evaluating the in situ treatment of PFAS in groundwater, and a case study in which an in situ strategy effectively treated PFAS at a Superfund site.
Vapor Intrusion Webinar Recording Now Available
In this webinar we are pleased to have a special presentation from Jessica Law, PG, Engineering Geologist and Case Manager for the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board. This presentation discussed a case study outlining the largest residential vapor intrusion investigation in California at the site of a former aerospace manufacturer. Joining Ms. Law is Thomas Szocinski, CEP, Land Science Director of Vapor Intrusion, who shared effective approaches to mitigating vapor intrusion on sites like the one discussed in the featured case study.
Industry Leaders in Applying Remediation Technologies
With decades of application experience, our Field Service Team is strategically located across the country to mobilize and assist on a wide range of sites throughout the US. REGENESIS Remediation Services (RRS) injection trailers are staffed by experienced field scientists and mobilized to every site equipped with a positive displacement injection pump (or similar), capable of producing at least 20 gallons per minute in flow. To learn more about the typical injection setup of the industry-leading RRS application team, download the brochure.
