Unleashing the Potential of Microcosm Tests

Microcosm tests—a powerful tool that revolutionizes soil evaluation. These tests enable simultaneous assessment of natural attenuation, biostimulation, and bioaugmentation, offering unparalleled insights for tailored solutions. But that’s not all—we also specialize in screening chemical oxidantia (ISCO) and reductantia (ISCR). With Avecom by your side, trust in our comprehensive approach to deliver transformative soil remediation solutions. 

 

Harnessing the Power of Biological Degradation

Trust Avecom to navigate the intricate world of pollutant degradation, ensuring effective and tailored solutions for your environmental challenges. As a spin-out from Ghent University with more than 25 years of expertise, we excel in selecting the perfect degradation strategy for diverse soil pollutants stemming from industry and agriculture.

Our in-depth knowledge and experience enable us to tackle a wide range of contaminants suitable for biodegradation. These include: 

  • mineral oil 
  • BTEX chemicals (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene), 
  • styrene 
  • polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) like naphthalene and biphenyl 
  • volatile organic compounds (VOCs) 
  • methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) 
  • cyanide 

Experience the Power of Lab-Scale Tests

Lab-scale tests offer numerous advantages, revolutionizing the way we understand and address pollution challenges. By conducting these tests, we can swiftly identify degradation patterns of pollutants across various remediation techniques, all within a relatively short timeframe. This enables us to select the most appropriate and tailored remediation strategy for your specific needs.

Moreover, we optimize crucial process parameters, maximizing efficiency and effectiveness. The benefits are significant—lowering overall costs and increasing certainty in achieving the desired final outcome.
