Groundwater sampling tool for accurate measurement of harmful aquifer sand and groundwater contaminants

总结

Alexander van Geen, Ph.D.

技术优势

Pristine sample collection from a single extraction sight provides insight to the origin of aquifer contamination.Peltier effect may freeze samples in under 6 minutes allows for improved process control and improved core acquisition rates.Deployable on a variety of platforms, facilitation its incorporation into already available equipment.Screw-on cutting tip of high alloy steel prevents damage associated with normal coring tips, thus preserving rock/water arrangement.Patent information:Patent Pending

技术应用

Aquifer sampling to increase the safety of drinking water sources in developing countries.Collection of deep ocean sediment samples for oil exploration.Sediment and groundwater sampling in sites of natural gas exploration (e.g., hydraulic fracturing).Exploration of oil sands petroleum deposits.
