UIC is located in Pasco, Washington. We are a supply & service company formed to exploit cutting edge research and technical developments in soil testing and environmental monitoring. Our vision is to use proprietary technology and our staff's scientific and practical expertise to 1) replace the existing 50-year-old methodology for soil testing and 2) provide a new, simplified approach for environmental studies that greatly reduces the volume of waste generated when characterizing a site. The technology is based on resin capsule "adsorbers" that "soak up" chemicals present in any media in which they are inserted. Within the agricultural sector, this technology simulates ion dynamics in the soil-root system. This technology uses resin capsule "adsorbers" that simultaneously accumulate bioavailable quantities of nutrients, or other inorganic chemicals, or organic substances. Members of our staff have completed over twelve years of research with this technology and are able to assist in a wide array of activities such as nutrient availability for our agricultural, golf course, nursery, lawn and garden customers, characterization of soil, groundwater and other effluents, and contaminant migration studies. For many in situ and other environmental applications, the need to collect, preserve, transport, and dispose of large quantities of soil samples, water, or other media (that may contain radiological and other hazardous materials) are minimized or eliminated.
