IN-SITU
THERMAL CONDUCTIVE HEATING USING GAS THERMAL REMEDIATION
In Situ Thermal Conductive Heating using Gas Thermal Remediation (GTR™) was specifically developed to be the most flexible ISTR platform. Period.
-
Excavation is difficult - if not impossible - without demolition of buildings.
-
Fast project execution is required for a real estate transaction.
-
Achieving residential or commercial closure goals is mandatory.
-
Low permeability soils such as clays and silts require remediation
-
Limited access to the property.
-
Groundwater and soil must be treated throughout the site.
-
Performance-based contracting or guarantees of treatment are desired.
BENEFICIAL REUSE!
After treatment, the heater wells can be reused as geothermal heat storage units; transforming the costs for cleanup into an economical and ecological long term benefit.
Our Solution
Thermal remediation using GTR™ technology may be the perfect answer to those particular issues. Each lightweight heater is designed to be operated without a central power distribution system. The flexible installation of heater wells allow GTR™ to be applied in nearly any configuration with vertical, horizontal/directional and slant installation techniques using direct push, auger and/or sonic drilling methods.

Types Of Fuel
These fuels can be used in GEO Burners in IN-Situ and EX-Situ sits.
Natural Gas
Natural gas is the common fuel source used in GEO burners as it is plentiful and cheap compared with other fuels.
CNG
Compressed Natural Gas available as a stand alone fuel or as a supplement to natural gas in large wellfields.
Hydrogen
A newer fuel source, GEO burners have undergone rigorous testing and have demonstrated remarkable adaptability to hydrogen as a fuel source. The extensive trials and tests conducted have validated their capacity to efficiently and effectively utilize hydrogen, marking a significant stride towards sustainable energy solutions
Diesel
Diesel used in locations where natural gas is not available. Particularly suited to remote locations.
Propane
Propane used in locations where natural gas is not available. Particularly suited to remote locations.
ENVIRONMENTAL DRILLING
GEO is a California licensed C-57 Well Driller. GEO capable limited access environmental drilling and remediation well installation services. With its hollow stem auger drill rig, GEO is able to drill in some of the most limited access locations. GEO's limited access drill rigs have installed soil vapor extraction wells, monitoring wells and thermal remediation wells at demanding project locations.
Unique Features of GEO's Drill Rig:
Access through standard single personnel doors
8 ft overhead clearance possible for well installations
Installs 2, 4, 6 inch well diameters
Remote hydraulic power source can be positioned outside so no exhaust fumes emitted in indoor areas
Hollow stem augers
California-modified split spoon soil sampling capable
