Geosyntec provides technical services to strategically manage legacy properties and resolve complex environmental issues related to ongoing operations, including those associated with merger, acquisition, and divestiture activities in the aerospace and electronics manufacturing industries.
Aerospace and Electronics Manufacturing
With the advent of new manufacturing techniques and better understandings of alloys and composite materials, aerospace and electronics manufacturers are making significant advances. Each technological advancement has come with new challenges related to environmental compliance, including residuals management. We work with clients to develop practical programs to meet current and emerging compliance initiatives through facility-specific and corporate environmental management system (EMS) programs.
The legacy manufacturing sites in this industry have been known to have soil and groundwater impacted by a range of contaminants, including chlorinated chemicals, many of which are resistant to conventional remediation.
Chlorinated Volatile Organic Compounds
To target chlorinated compounds, Geosyntec specializes in using in situ technologies including bioremediation and reactive treatment processes such as zero-valent iron (ZVI) and chemical oxidation. Within the aerospace industry, oxidizers in propellants such as perchlorate have become contaminants of concern for soil and groundwater. Geosyntec is a leader in developing technologies to address these contaminants.
As manufacturers realign assets to accommodate changes in manufacturing and consumer markets, properties become available for sale or redevelopment. Geosyntec works with owners to understand the costs and value opportunities associated with their underperforming real estate assets.
