Terra Vac is a subsurface evaluation and remediation company providing the full range of technologies, technical expertise, design and construction services required for implementation of cost-effective solutions to soil and groundwater contamination problems. Terra Vac focuses its services and resources on remediation programs that use in-situ and ex-situ technologies to address subsurface contamination. Terra Vac remediates volatile contaminants (gasoline, solvents, chemical additives), semi-volatile contaminants (diesel, gasohol, jet fuel, solvents chemical additives), inorganics, heavy metals and radionuclides.

Terra Vac specializes in, and has unparalleled expertise with, the application and use of vacuum extraction technology for the removal of volatile contaminants from the subsurface. Terra Vac was established in 1984 to commercialize the use of this technology and has successfully applied the vacuum extraction process at over 850 sites.

The full complement of subsurface evaluation and remediation services provided by Terra Vac systematically evolved out of our vacuum extraction expertise. Since the development of the vacuum extraction process, Terra Vac has continued to pioneer enhancements of the technology, as well as other in-situ and ex-situ remediation technologies. These enhanced technologies include the Dual Vacuum Extraction process of simultaneous water and soil remediation, BIOVAC^SM process of vapor extraction enhanced bioremediation technologies, Air Sparging enhanced vacuum extraction, Pneumatic Fracturing and many others.

Since it's founding in 1984, Terra Vac has grown to a company of over 60 scientists, engineers and technicians. The diverse geological condition and variable regulatory requirements encountered throughout the United States require a staff highly versed in remediation technologies and attuned to regional regulatory agency preferences. Accordingly, Terra Vac has distributed its staff around the world:
