Comprehensive Assessment of Polluted and Impacted Soils
Soil contamination poses significant environmental and human health risks when industrial, agricultural, or mining activities release hazardous substances into the ground. BQCIS provides accredited laboratory testing for identifying toxic elements, hydrocarbons, and organic pollutants to evaluate compliance with EPA, ISO 11047, and EN 1483 standards.
Our multidisciplinary teams support site investigation, baseline characterization, and remediation design. Using advanced analytical techniques like ICP-MS, GC-MS, and HPLC, we quantify heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Hg, As), total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), pesticides, PCBs, and phenols across soil matrices.
Results from BQCIS enable regulatory reporting, risk assessment, and sustainable remediation planning for industrial zones, fuel depots, landfills, and agricultural catchments.
Key Activities in Soil Contamination Analysis
Key Benefits of Soil Contamination Analysis
Regulatory Assurance
Meet global compliance with EPA, EU, and ISO environmental soil standards.
Site Remediation Insights
Enable accurate cleanup design and validation for brownfield and industrial redevelopment projects.
Health Risk Reduction
Safeguard workers and communities from exposure to toxic contaminants and persistent pollutants.
Traceable Reporting
Comprehensive reports with full QA/QC documentation for audit and certification purposes.
Success Story
Soil Remediation Validation for Fuel Depot Redevelopment
A decommissioned fuel depot exhibited hydrocarbon and lead contamination exceeding EPA standards across multiple sampling zones.
BQCIS performed site-wide sampling, GC-MS and ICP-MS analysis, and delivered geospatial contamination mapping to guide excavation and remediation plans.
Post-remediation testing confirmed pollutant reduction by 96%, clearing the site for industrial redevelopment and ISO 14001 certification alignment.
