Nelson brings Canadian remediation technologies to Ottawa to address historic and emerging environmental challenges

Issued by Nelson Environmental Remediation

Company to showcase thermal remediation, advanced site characterization and in-situ treatment capabilities at RPIC National Summit, October 27-29

OTTAWA, ON, October 21, 2026. Nelson Environmental Remediation, a leading Canadian environmental remediation company, will showcase its capabilities for addressing complex contaminated sites at the 2026 RPIC National Summit in Ottawa, October 27–29.

The Summit brings together leaders and technical professionals from across Canada.

Canada’s federal government continues to identify, assess and remediate contaminated properties across the country, addressing environmental liabilities accumulated over decades while preparing for emerging challenges.

Nelson will exhibit technologies spanning mobile thermal remediation, high-resolution site characterization, in-situ remediation and industrial water treatment. The company is also advancing research and development into treatment solutions for persistent PFAS contamination in a project with NATO STO (Science and Technology Organization).

“Canada has an enormous range of contaminated-site challenges, from petroleum hydrocarbons and legacy industrial contamination to PFAS,” said Warren Nelson, CEO of Nelson Environmental Remediation. “There isn’t one technology that solves every site. The important thing is having the experience and range of tools to build the right solutions around complex problems. As a Canadian company, Nelson is equipped for these global challenges.”

For more than three decades, Nelson has deployed remediation solutions to contaminated sites in Canada and internationally. It now deploys the world’s largest mobile thermal remediation fleet.

The company’s experience includes large-scale contaminated-soil projects, direct-fired and indirect thermal treatment, and applications in which remediation can also enable recycling or resource recovery in the energy, mining and automotive sectors.

Nelson has also expanded its below-ground capabilities, combining high-resolution site characterization with technologies including multi-phase extraction, soil vapour extraction, air sparging, thermal enhancement and chemical and biological amendments, along with industrial water treatment.

Nelson representatives will be available throughout the RPIC National Summit to discuss federal contaminated sites, thermal remediation, in-situ treatment, water treatment and complex environmental projects.

The 2026 RPIC National Summit takes place October 27–29 in Ottawa.
