APPLICATIONS<br />
Main Applications<br />
• Detection, delineation and monitoring of hydrocarbon contamination of soils from fuel and other<br />
spills.<br />
• Fast and convenient monitoring of UST (underground storage tanks) and pipelines for leakage.<br />
• Monitoring of contaminant plume migration.<br />
• Monitoring of in situ bioremediation processes where bacteria consume oxygen and generate heat,<br />
methane and carbon dioxide. Routine monitoring at fixed locations can track both the progress and<br />
the efficiency of the process. The results provide a good indication of bacterial activity and also of the<br />
contaminant concentration.<br />
• Detection and monitoring of methane flux over decommissioned coal mines.<br />
Other Applications<br />
Following applications require operator experience to decide (or consult the RS DYNAMICS representative<br />
or manufacturer ) if the <strong>ECOPROBE</strong> 5 system is suitable for a given task.<br />
• Waste dumps & agricultural waste measurement.<br />
• Detection and monitoring of toxic gasses in industrial plants and in agricultural environments .<br />
• Detection and monitoring of product leaks in the chemical/petrochemical industry.<br />
• Air pollution monitoring.<br />
• Othe<strong>rs</strong><br />
<strong>ECOPROBE</strong> 5 can be also used as a sophisticated sampling device. An absorbent cartridge can be<br />
connected to the instrument outlet, collecting the soil gas which has been already measured.<br />
