Laboratory Services
KEI conducts ongoing in-house R&D to introduce new analytical service products. Inquire about services that are not explicitly listed on the website.
Services for contaminated site assessment and remediation projects. Determination of isotope composition of chlorinated ethenes, benzene, MtBE, and other VOC-class compounds in environmental samples. ​
​​
​Services for hydrocarbon exploration projects. Determination of isotope composition of methane and higher hydrocarbons in wellhead gas, soil gas and petroleum samples.
Consulting
Support for Site Assessment Project Design. KEI can help to design your contaminated site assessment project prior to initiating field work, to assure CSIA results will be informative. KEI can work with a client to assess the feasibility of CSIA application and to propose optimum sampling and analytical approaches.
​​
​Interpretive Reporting. KEI can provide interpretive reporting using own analytical data or for data sets obtained elsewhere. CSIA results can assist in (1) Identification of contaminant ​degradation footprints; (2) Identification of reaction pathways; (3) Estimation of the rates of degradation; (4) Identification of contaminant sources in contaminated groundwater or at vapor intrusion sites.
