A & M Environmental Contracting's remediation systems provide an efficient and cost-effective approach for volatile-organic compound removal. The process is a proven technology which has been successfully employed on numerous sites and is acceptable by all of the concerned agencies. A & M Environmental Contracting recommends vapor extraction as a relatively inexpensive technology for cleaning up soil and in assisting in the removal of free product. The technique can be utilized "ex situ" as well as "in situ" to withdraw contaminants from already excavated contaminated soil.

Applications of the vapor extraction technology are varied. Halocarbons, freons, fuel products, and other volatile chemicals are mobile in the subsurface environment. These chemicals are identified as health hazards at extremely low concentrations in groundwater and in vapor. Releases of these chemicals into the environment often result in an impact to large areas of both subsurface soil and groundwater. The low concentrations required of remediation efforts by regulators add to the problems companies face.
