Terra Systems’ senior scientists have been pioneering in situ bioremediation technology for over 30 years.  The company has developed aerobic and anaerobic bioremediation techniques in both the laboratory and the field.  The most recent development resulted in United States Patent No. 6,398,960 B1 for the use of emulsified vegetable oil substrate for reductive dechlorination of chlorinated solvents. 

Terra Systems has an on-going Research & Development program that is focused on continuing our cutting edge technology developments.  The company operates a R&D/Process Control laboratory at its Wilmington, Delaware headquarters where TSI conducts laboratory treatability studies to investigate the potential application of in-situ bioremediation and chemical oxidation.  TSI has an EPA permit DER000002360 to conduct Hazardous Waste Treatability Studies and a United States Department of Agriculture permit No. 69512 to import foreign soils for treatability testing. 

As a result of TSI’s scientists’ years of experience, we found that effective site remediation programs typically require more than one remediation technology.  As a consequence, TSI is a founding member of the Remediation Partners Group (RPG).  RPG is a consortium of 8 remediation technology companies that are also focused on finding the most appropriate remediation solutions.  Please refer to our Links page for contacts.

Terra Systems’ Research & Development program combined with its participation in the Remediation Partners Group has provided the company’s engineers and scientists with a unique perspective on cost effective site remediation technologies. The company’s commitment to serve the environmental engineering community with cost effective remediation products enables our scientists to help you identify the most cost effective site remediation technologies for your site.
