Company Profile

Burge Environmental is focused to development and manufacture of real-time trichloroethene fiber-optic sensors (optrode), multi-level ground-water samplers, and automated ground-water monitoring systems. Initial R&D was based on an optrode developed by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory for the analyses of volatile chlorinated hydrocarbons. Burge Environmental Inc. now features several different automated water monitoring systems for the determination of the following contaminants in drinking, natural and process waters. The instrumentation is designed to allow for interface of the primary sensor, auxiliary sensor(s) and sampling methods using a “plug and play” mode of operation. The user selects the sensors, sampling techniques and communication methods, plugs the component into the correct slot and selects the appropriate software on the computer program. The instrument is capable of operating in the appropriate mode (signal acquisition and sample collection) with the sensors and sampling methods - powered by 110-volts in a laboratory environment, or solar cells (12-volts) at remote locations.
