Services
Wastewater Management
We design decentralized wastewater treatment systems tailored for rural communities. Our solutions include land-based effluent dispersal and packed-bed filters that offer sustainable alternatives to conventional sewer infrastructure. With expertise in STEG/STEP systems and composting toilets, we address challenging site conditions while ensuring regulatory compliance and long-term operational efficiency.
Soil Assessments
Our soil investigation services determine optimal septic system design for specific properties. Using field testing methods like the ETC Pask Permeameter, we classify soil types and groundwater conditions to ensure effective wastewater dispersal. This critical analysis forms the basis for compliant, durable on-site sewage solutions.
Training Courses
We deliver government-approved training programs for PEI Site Assessors and industry professionals. Our curriculum covers soil classification, septic design, and regulatory compliance. With hands-on field instruction and comprehensive exams, we equip participants with the skills needed for certified site evaluation and system design.
AI/ML Consulting
Our artificial intelligence and machine learning division develops data-driven solutions for environmental monitoring. From vulnerability assessment to computer vision applications, we create custom algorithms that enhance predictive analysis and operational efficiency in wastewater management and ecological research.
Product Development
We design and manufacture specialized monitoring equipment for decentralized wastewater systems. Products like the SepticSitter and IVM6000 provide real-time performance data and early warning alerts. Our engineering team also offers custom electronics development for clients requiring innovative environmental monitoring solutions.
