The emphasis placed by our governments on sustainable development and the revitalization of older industrial sites for residential and commercial projects has forced land owners, developers, and environmental consultants to develop and use new and innovative techniques to decontaminate land and groundwater. These novel techniques must economically result in safe contaminant levels within the shortest timeframes possible.

Chemco has dedicated resources and expertise to play a key role in this field and provide our customers with a unique blend of products, knowledge and services specifically adapted to In Situ and Ex Situ remediation techniques for both soil and groundwater. So whether you’re targeting the contaminants of concern though chemical oxidation or reduction processes, soil washing techniques using innovative co-solvent/surfactant blends or via enhanced biodegradation, Chemco can assist and supply you with customized solutions.

We are involved in educating and consulting with our clients and continually expanding our technological offerings. Chemco’s expertise includes the development of remediation strategies through technical and economical evaluations, laboratory bench scale validation, design and supply of storage and chemical feed and control equipment, supply chain logistics, assistance in the draft of Environmental Compliance Approvals, and pilot scale testing though tracer studies.

We have teamed up with industry leaders to become the largest In Situ, Ex Situ remediation technology supplier across Canada.

The mining industry faces increasingly demanding environmental regulation that triggers the need to constantly renew and optimize the methods for treating its process waters.

Mineral exploration is a highly technical sector closely linked to the ever growing needs of mining companies. Today’s exploration has to be done in remote areas to find prolific and profitable mineral deposits. This reality requires innovative technologies that are adapted to these increasingly difficult conditions. Chemco has a range of products tailored to the needs of diamond drilling, an industry with demanding requirements when it comes to combining performance, environmental matters and economic savings.

Diamond drilling is a science that requires constant attention due to the changing and unforgiving conditions of the various geologies encountered. Drilling fluids can increase the rate of penetration, increase yields of core recovery, protect equipment, remove drill cuttings, stabilize the borehole, and minimize water losses.
