Contaminated soil and groundwater
COWI conducts all forms of investigation and remediation of contamination for regional and municipal authorities and private land owners.
Contaminated soil and groundwater can constitute a risk for indoor climate, activities on the site, drinking water, lakes, rivers and the marine environment.
COWI has worked for more than 20 years in all areas of contaminated soil and groundwater and has a staff of over 110 soil and groundwater specialists. Our staff works from our offices in Lyngby, Odense, Vejle, Aarhus and Aalborg.
Technical equipment
We have an extensive and comprehensive list of field equipment. We have, for example, a soil gas truck with a laboratory and ability to hydraulically install groundwater screens. We have drilling rigs, metal detection equipment, equipment to conduct in situ tests and instruments such as photo ionisation detector, field GC-MS and mobile water testing instruments.
Courses and knowledge sharing
The development and communication of knowledge are central elements in COWI's work with soil and groundwater. Using the newest research results COWI develops ideas and consulting services and arranges courses and seminars for our clients and colleagues. Soil gas measurement, in door climate and ventilation are just some of the areas where we have developed tools and guidelines for the interpretation of investigation results.
