Did you know?

The global environmental remediation market size was estimated at USD 115.2 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% to 2030 due to a climb in regulations, soil and water contamination, market demand, and a confluence of other factors that underscore the increasing urgency for effective environmental management and pollution control.


How we prioritize healthy people, safe workspaces, and a thriving planet with environmental remediation services

  • Safety-TEAL

    Safety

    Waste is carefully and completely cleaned up and transported for processing, diverting hazards that harm ecosystems, threaten communities and negatively impact plant, animal and human health.

  • Compliance-TEAL

    Compliance

    Waste, equipment and sites are thoughtfully and thoroughly managed and documented in accordance with all local and federal regulations, preventing violations that impede strategies, halt operations and imperil licensing.

  • Sustainability-TEAL

    Sustainability

    Waste is efficiently and environmentally responsibly removed; treated and reused, recycled, turned into energy; or safely returned to nature as raw components, creating cycles that optimize resource value, reduce carbon footprints and regenerate ecosystems.

Environmental Remediation Resources

Environmental Remediation FAQ

What is environmental remediation?
Environmental remediation is the process of removing pollutants, contaminants, or hazardous substances from soil, water, and air to restore a site to safe conditions. It is commonly required for industrial sites, land redevelopment projects, and areas affected by spills or waste disposal.
What is the purpose of environmental remediation?
The primary purpose of environmental remediation is to eliminate or mitigate environmental hazards that pose risks to human health, ecosystems, and natural resources. This process helps in restoring contaminated sites, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations, and preventing further pollution.
Why is environmental remediation important?

Environmental remediation is crucial for:

  • Protecting public health by reducing exposure to toxic substances.
  • Restoring ecosystems by removing harmful pollutants from soil and water.
  • Complying with regulations set by agencies like the EPA and local environmental authorities.
  • Supporting economic development by enabling the reuse of previously contaminated properties.
What are the different types of field and onsite services that support environmental remediation and other types of industrial cleaning and maintenance?

Field and onsite services play a vital role in environmental remediation and industrial maintenance. These include a variety of land and marine capabilities such as:

  • Soil and groundwater remediation to remove hazardous contaminants.
  • Spill response and emergency cleanup for chemical and oil spills.
  • Tank cleaning and decontamination for industrial storage units.
  • Hydro-excavation and vacuum services to safely remove waste and debris.
  • Industrial wastewater treatment for regulatory compliance.
  • Hazardous and non-hazardous waste transportation and disposal, including chemical and lab packing services.
What are some technologies used in environmental remediation and industrial cleaning and maintenance?

Several advanced technologies support remediation and industrial maintenance, including:

  • Bioremediation: Using microorganisms to break down pollutants.
  • Chemical Oxidation and Neutralization: Treating hazardous chemicals on-site.
  • Soil Vapor Extraction: Removing volatile contaminants from soil.
  • Groundwater Pump-and-Treat Systems: Filtering and treating contaminated water.
  • Thermal Desorption: Using heat to remove pollutants from soil.
  • Hydroblasting, Sandblasting, and Vacuum Extraction: Industrial cleaning methods for removing residues and various materials.
What is an example of environmental remediation and its process?

A common example is the remediation of a fuel spill at a manufacturing facility, gas station, or vehicle depot:

  1. Initial Assessment: Identify the extent of soil and groundwater contamination.
  2. Containment Measures: Prevent further spread using barriers or pump systems.
  3. Treatment Process: Use bioremediation, soil vapor extraction, or chemical oxidation to break down pollutants.
  4. Testing and Monitoring: Analyze water and soil samples to confirm contamination levels are reduced.
  5. Site Closure and Restoration: Restore the land for future safe use, often under regulatory approval.
How does environmental remediation benefit business?

Businesses benefit from environmental remediation in several ways:

  • Stakeholder Safety: Remove hazardous conditions that could impact employees or customers.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Avoid fines and legal liabilities.
  • Reputation Management: Demonstrate environmental responsibility.
  • Property Value Increase: Cleaned sites can be redeveloped or sold at higher value.
  • Cost Savings: Long-term savings by preventing further contamination and regulatory penalties.
How much does environmental remediation typically cost?
The cost of environmental remediation varies widely based on factors such as the type and extent of contamination, location, regulatory requirements, and chosen remediation technology. Costs can range from a few thousand dollars for minor cleanups to millions for extensive industrial site remediation. It’s important to note that by working with an end-to-end solutions provider like ReworldTM, businesses with remediation challenges can scale services to meet their specific environmental and financial needs. This ultimately saves costs by bundling solutions, minimizing vendors, and streamlining operations.
