Biogeochemical Laboratory Services

Geovation provides analytical laboratory services for biogeochemical parameters to support bioremediation products and monitored natural attenuation programs for ground water. Geovation provides extremely low method detection limit (MDL) analytical services for biogeochemical parameters to support bioremediation projects and monitored natural attenuation programs for ground water.

Geovation can provide data with MDLs of 2 to 10 micrograms per liter (ppb) for key biogeochemical and redox sensitive parameters in water samples including nitrogen species (nitrate, nitrite and ammonium), phosphorus species (phosphate and complex "hydrolyzable" phosphate) and sulfur species (sulfate and sulfide). Measurement of these parameters at such low MDLs enables the detailed spatial analysis of the resultant data, such that these parameters can be used as "tracers" of ground water flow and contaminant migration patterns.

Geovation provides comprehensive laboratory services for jar tests and bench and column studies of bioremediation processes for feasibility studies, including unique capabilities for conducting experiments under anaerobic conditions.
