A frontrunner in Environmental Services
With our longstanding experience, we help to close the gap between the current state of environmental practices and the urgent demands of the environment. Awareness is raising, regulations are stricter, and the future will bring even greater challenges.
Wolftank Group is at the forefront of environmental engineering, and for over 75 years we have successfully delivered remediation projects related to the excessive use of hydrocarbons. We recycle, give a second life to materials, and fully restore the soil to its original condition.
Technologies and solutions
Mobile Laboratory
Water Remediation
Design, construction, operation and maintenance
While your business remains operative, our highly trained technicians conduct in-situ and ex-situ analyses and remediation of contaminated groundwater and soil, restoring the surrounding environment to its original healthy state. In ideal conditions over 99% of the contamination can be remediated.

Waste management
Our waste management facilities have a total area of 20,000 square meters, of which 6,000 square meters are covered and dedicated to authorized activities such as storage, disposal, treatment and complete waste recovery.
With our full waste management services, we contribute to a sustainable and circular economy by giving a second life to as much waste as possible such as soil, sludge and liquid waste. We are experienced specialists in the treatment of special, hazardous and non-hazardous waste.

Bioremediation
We use living organisms, like microbes and bacteria, to clean pollutants from soil, water, and other environments. By encouraging certain microbes to grow, the pollutants – such as oil, solvents, and pesticides – will be used as their food.
These microbes break the pollutants down into small amounts of water and harmless gases. Bioremediation is an effective solution for environmental issues like oil spills.
Phytoremediation
We specialize in phytoremediation to clean contaminated soil and groundwater. This method works especially well for near-surface soil, where roots can access contaminants. Plants promote microbial degradation of pollutants in the soil and absorb contaminants into their above-ground parts.
Different plants and techniques can be used depending on the type of contamination, making phytoremediation a versatile solution for fuels, metals, pesticides, explosives, and more.

Geoengineering
Geoengineering involves all activities developed in natural environments that aim to reduce or neutralize climate change. Wolftank Group applies a wide range of methods, both in situ and off-site, such as soil vapor extraction (SVE) and in situ chemical treatment with an oxidizing agent.
In situ methods usually have less impact on the environment and reduce project costs. Our mobile laboratory enables these methods by providing rapid and comprehensive chemical analysis on site.
Contact & details
In situ/Ex situ: These terms refer to locations. An in-situ process or treatment is carried out on site, whereas an ex situ process or treatment is carried out off site.
This branch of biotechnology uses living organisms like microbes and bacteria to remove contaminants, pollutants, and toxins from soil, water, and other environments. It may be used to clean up contaminated groundwater or environmental problems such as oil spills.
This specific remediation process uses plants to remove pollutants in the soil and the groundwater. In the case of soil, it is especially suitable for near-surface contamination because it treats the topsoil layer.
Developed in natural environments, this intentional activity aims to reduce or neutralise climate change. It
includes a wide range of techniques, in situ and ex situ.
