soil vapor extraction

Soil vapor extraction (SVE) is a cleaning method used to remove harmful chemicals from the ground. It involves extracting contaminated vapors from the soil using specialized wells and vacuum systems. These vapors are then treated to remove pollutants before being released into the air or safely disposed of. SVE is effective for cleaning up areas where chemicals like petroleum products or solvents have seeped into the soil, helping to reduce environmental hazards and protect groundwater while restoring the site for future use.
