Client Spotlight: Chris Jaros, EnviroForensics®
 For Chris Jaros of EnviroForensics®, a full service environmental engineering firm and valued REGENESIS client, applying his more than 20 years of experience towards just one role or position is simply not enough. His expertise in both project management and in coordinating with municipalities, developers, and communities, allows him to fill key positions as both a Senior Project Manager and Brownfields Coordinator. Although working in two demanding roles at EnviroForensics® can have its challenges, Jaros would not want it any other way. He shares, “I enjoy the technical aspects of my project work immensely – helping our projects advance through the various stages to achieve our client’s goals.” Read more about Jaros’ role in our Client Spotlight.
The Business Case for In Situ Remediation
. All too often, remediation strategies focus on short term costs without factoring in requirements for proper LTS and the associated costs of implementation. The eBook, A Business Case Approach to Site Clean Up provides a guide to cost-effective remediation planning, and understanding your total cost to remediate.</span></p>

PlumeStop Eliminates Risk and Uncertainty
 PlumeStop Liquid Activated Carbon is a break-through groundwater remediation technology that reduces dissolved phase contaminant plumes in days. Composed of extremely fine particles of activated carbon (1-2µm) suspended in water through a proprietary dispersion chemistry, PlumeStop flows into the subsurface at low pressure and achieves consistent, reliable distribution – a capability unlike any other form of activated carbon used for groundwater remediation today.
Low-cost Bioremediation of Chlorinated Solvents
 HRC® is an engineered, hydrogen release compound designed specifically for enhanced, in situ anaerobic bioremediation of chlorinated compounds in groundwater or highly saturated soils. HRC enables enhanced anaerobic biodegradation by adding hydrogen (an electron donor) to groundwater and/or soil to increase the number and vitality of indigenous microorganisms able to perform the naturally occurring process of enhanced reductive dechlorination. Due to its capability of being applied via permanent wells, direct-push, and excavations, this reagent allows for clean, low-cost, non-disruptive application.
Accelerated Treatment of Intermediate Compounds
 Bio-Dechlor INOCULUM® Plus (BDI Plus) is designed to provide rapid and effective treatment of undesirable anaerobic dechlorination intermediates such as dichloroethene (DCE) and vinyl chloride (VC), and is a low-cost means of enhancing the anaerobic biodegradation process. Once in place, this microbial consortium accelerates the rate of chlorinated contaminant degradation from parent compounds to intermediates like DCE and VC and completely through to harmless end products such as ethene and ethane. It is highly compatible with a range of electron donors.

REGENESIS hosted a technical presentation with speaker John Freim, Ph.D., REGENESIS Director of Materials Science. During this presentation, Dr. Freim discussed the benefits of using zero valent iron (ZVI) as a powerful remediation amendment that can decontaminate soil and groundwater containing chlorinated hydrocarbons, pesticides, and other toxic substances. Joining Dr. Freim was Rick Gillespie, Senior Vice President of North America at REGENESIS. The full recording is available here.
