EMS Sensor Technology

Key Benefits

EMS’s SoilSense, WaterSense, and CropSense replace traditional sampling programs that only capture single point-in-time (PIT) data. Accurate, timely automated data collection results in a better understanding of contaminant plume profile and behavior, simplifying modeling soil and groundwater hydrocarbon degradation and seasonal impacts on risk and liability.

  • Maximize effectiveness and reduce spend for assessment, monitoring, and remediation.
  • Shift from costly excavation to more economical, passive methods with measured natural source zone depletion (NSZD) and bioremediation.
  • View site trends from your desktop, anytime, anywhere using continuous measurements collected without travel or manual effort.
  • Site-specific Tailored Approach
  • Advanced Remediation Solutions
  • Data Interpretation & Guidance

What EMS Sensors Measure

  • Contaminant plume behavior
  • Soil and groundwater hydrocarbon concentrations
  • Site-specific risk and liability

Microbial Bioremediation

EMS injects tailored amounts of nitrogen, phosphorous, sulfur, and iron to boost microbial growth and ensure ample electron acceptors are available, which are critical for effectiveness.

Hydrocarbon Containment

Hydrocarbons from spills are primarily confined to a limited lateral spread due to strong adsorption onto soil particles. 

Nutrient Optimization

The technology maintains soil pH within optimal ranges through buffer solutions, preventing adverse impacts from pH fluctuations on microbial activity and soil health.
