Environmental Remediation & Contamination Control
1. Site Assessment & Investigation
“Precision Diagnostics for Polluted Sites”
- Phase I/II ESA: Historical review + soil/water sampling (following ASTM E1527-21)
- Contaminant Fingerprinting: HC, heavy metals (Pb, Cr6+, Hg), and TPH source identification
- 3D Site Modeling: GIS-based plume visualization (Surfer/Golden Software)
- Niger Delta oil spill forensics
- E-waste dump characterization (Lagos, Aba)
- Illegal refinery impact assessments
2. Remediation Technologies
“Adapted for Tropical Conditions”
| Contaminant | Treatment Methods | Local Adaptations |
| Petroleum Hydrocarbons | Bioventing, Bioslurping | Palm kernel shell biochar amendments |
| Heavy Metals | Chemical stabilization (APC, Portland cement) | Laterite clay-based permeable barriers |
| Landfill Leachate | Phytoremediation (Water hyacinth systems) | Solar-powered aeration units |
| PFAS Compounds | Activated carbon filtration | Locally-sourced coconut shell carbon |
Case Example:
*”Remediated 8ha former battery recycling site in Ibadan – Reduced lead levels from 12,000ppm to <400ppm (NESREA standards) using soil washing + vetiver grass.”*
3. Oil Spill Response
“24/7 Emergency Protocols”
- Containment: Booms & skimmers for riverine/coastal spills
- Recovery: Vacu-truck services for inland sites
- Bioremediation: Custom consortia (NDA-approved microbial blends)
- Post-Remediation: Mangrove restoration programs
Regulatory Compliance:
✔ NOSDRA Act 2006 ✔ EGASPIN ✔ IPIECA Guidelines
4. Mine Site Rehabilitation
“Lifecycle Solutions for Mining Impacts”
- Acid Mine Drainage Control:
- Passive treatment (anoxic limestone drains)
- Active treatment (solar-powered electrocoagulation)
- Tailings Management:
- Geochemical characterization
- Dry stack conversion feasibility
- Artisanal Mining Formalization: Mercury-free processing training
5. Urban Brownfield Redevelopment
“Turning Contaminated Sites into Assets”
- Risk-based cleanup frameworks for:
- Former petrol stations
- Abandoned industrial yards
- Redevelopment planning support:
- Commercial complexes
- Urban farms (soil amendment certification)
6. Groundwater Remediation
“Protecting Nigeria’s Aquifers”
- Pump-and-Treat: Modular containerized systems
- In-Situ Chemical Oxidation: Permanganate/H2O2 injection
- Monitoring: Low-cost piezometer networks
Success Metric:
“Restored contaminated boreholes in 12 Owerri communities to WHO drinking standards.”
