Increasingly, government agencies, corporations and other service providers are required to protect against impacts to the environment and human health. However, without the necessary scientific expertise and knowledge of regulations, this can be a complex costly and time-consuming process. The GlobalTox Division understands how to effectively integrate regulatory requirements and scientific information to promote informed decision making.

Phytoremediation is a green, inexpensive alternative to conventional remediation methods such as “dig and dump”. It involves the utilization of plants and associated bacteria to clean contaminated sites. Phytoremediation can be used as mitigation measures in support of Risk Assessments or Brownfield Sites, to decontaminate wastewater and to treat acid mine drainage and landfill leachates. Methods are chosen based on careful analysis of environmental parameters, regional limitations, legislative regulations, and financial constraints. This technique can be used for in-situ and onsite decontamination of wastewater, groundwater, stormwater run-off, sediments and soil.
We have the experience and knowledge to provide strategic input for guiding Phytoremediation Techniques:
|
- Constructed Treatment Wetland Design
- Vegetated Filterstrip Design
- Hybrid Poplar Pump and Treat Systems
- Phytostabilization covers for Slopes, Landfills, Mine Sites

Regulatory approvals take time, energy and money. They are often extremely complicated and require advanced scientific training. When not pursued strategically or processed with absolute accuracy, they can set you back months or even years. As government regulations around the globe tighten on new and existing products, compliance becomes increasingly complex.
