  1. A clean and healthy soil is a prerequisite for growing a healthy garden with ample produce. Soil can get contaminated quickly leading to myriad problems of the farmer or the owner of the garden. It is therefore necessary to learn about contamination and their remediation. There are many BC remediation companies that can help you in this regard. The name of Delta Remediation in AB, Canada ranks high among these companies. possible causes of

  2. What Does Contamination of Soil Mean? It is necessary to analyze samples of soil in your garden before you begin to start the process of growing vegetables or fruits. Contamination of soil can take place in different ways. If there are any industries in nearby areas, toxic chemicals can find their way into your coil to contaminate it. These chemicals are taken up by plants through their roots and can create health problems through contaminated fruits and vegetables. The quality of soil can be determined through soil quality test. This test not only reveals the level of contamination but also its possible causes. If your garden is in proximity to a commercial or industrial unit, your soil can be contaminated with lead, cadmium, arsenic, and many other chemicals. These pollutants are used in paint industry, petroleum industry, and pesticide and fertilizer industry. Soil Quality Test Reveals the Level of Contamination A soil remediation test checks the soil for the presence of chemicals like toluene, benzene, cyanides, and chemicals that are found in leaks from gas stations. Here it is important to remember that a contaminated soil cannot be totally cleaned but the impact of these contaminants can be greatly reduced through cleaning.

  3. Different Methods of Soil Remediation  Thermal desorption  Bioremediation  Chemical fixation  Physical treatment In thermal desorption, soil is heated in a dryer to remove toxic material from it. Hydrocarbons contaminants are evaporated and removed from the soil through thermal desorption. Bioremediation is a safe and cost-effective method of cleaning of contaminated soils. If you go through a bio remediation case study, you will find that microorganisms are added into the soil. These microorganisms which are mostly engineered bacteria grow and break down the contaminants present in the soil. Chemical fixation is a method of soil remediation where the soil is treated with a chemical to bind hydrocarbon contaminants. Chloride remediation is one of these chemical fixation methods for cleaning of soil. Physical treatment is a method of remediation that aims to remove contaminants through segregation and sizing.

  4. The method used for cleaning of soil in your garden is dependent upon the level of contamination and the kind of contaminants present in the soil. It also depends upon the extent of cleaning required and the budget of the client. Delta remediation has tons of experience in removing contaminants from soil.
