GEOBRASIL Soluções Ambientais

What GEOBRASIL Soluções Ambientais does

GEOBRASIL Soluções Ambientais (operating commercially as Geobrasil Ambiental) is a Brazilian environmental consulting and engineering firm founded in 2005 that specializes in contaminated area management. It delivers a phase-gated, end-to-end service portfolio covering preliminary site assessment, confirmatory and detailed investigation, human-health and ecological risk assessment, environmental remediation, soil and groundwater monitoring, intervention plans, and deactivation plans, all aligned with CETESB and IBAMA regulatory frameworks and the ASTM E1527 due-diligence standard. Its technical capabilities include in-situ sorbent-reducing treatment for chlorinated ethenes via permeable reactive barriers (presented as an industry case in 2025), thermal remediation of VOC-contaminated soils using electrode heating, air stripping tower treatment for groundwater plume containment, and activated-carbon hydraulic barriers — positioning it as a niche domain specialist rather than a broad environmental services generalist.

The firm serves primarily industrial and commercial enterprises with contamination and compliance obligations, plus select government entities. The named customer base spans automotive (Federal-Mogul, Mahle), steel and metallurgy (ArcelorMittal, Amsted-Maxion), chemicals (Croda, Yara, ITW Chemical, Bquisa, Margirius), consumer goods (Unilever), retail (Magazine Luiza), aerospace and transportation (Bombardier), industrial sealing (EagleBurgmann), maritime industrial (Fabrimar), agribusiness (Dinagro), financial services (Sicoob), building materials (Tigre), and the municipal government of Porto Ferreira. Service delivery follows an enterprise field-sales motion centered on direct engagement through website contact forms, WhatsApp, phone, and email consultation requests.

The business model is project-based professional services with non-publicly-disclosed, contact-quoted pricing. The company operates two offices in São Paulo state (Ribeirão Preto and Valinhos) and claims nationwide coverage across Brazil; it is privately held, founder-led (Roseli Doretto as Founder/CFO, Fernando Medeiros as Partner/Technical Director, Cesar Curi as Partner-Director), and is supported by a multidisciplinary team of geologists, engineers, biologists, quality auditors, and environmental-law specialists, with international support available for specific projects. Credibility is reinforced through ISO/IEC 17025 laboratory accreditation (CRL1166), EcoVadis sustainability rating, and D-U-N-S Number registration.

Core offering

GEOBRASIL Soluções Ambientais is a Brazilian environmental consulting and engineering firm that delivers end-to-end contaminated area management services — from preliminary site assessment and confirmatory/detailed investigation through human health and ecological risk assessment, remediation, and post-remediation monitoring. It also performs environmental due diligence (Diligência Ambiental) for industrial and commercial clients, primarily using ASTM E1527 methodology adapted to Brazilian regulation. The firm applies specialized in-house remediation technologies, including thermal treatment for VOCs, air stripping, and an innovative sorbent-reducing permeable reactive barrier for chlorinated ethenes.

Product overview

Geobrasil Ambiental is an environmental consulting and engineering firm specializing in contaminated area management, offering a structured, phase-gated service portfolio covering the full lifecycle from preliminary assessment through remediation and deactivation. The core offering consists of nine interconnected service modules: Avaliação Preliminar, Investigação Confirmatória, Investigação Detalhada, Avaliação de Risco à Saúde Humana, Avaliação de Risco Ecológico, Remediação Ambiental, Monitoramento Solo e Água, Plano de Intervenção, and Plano de Desativação — all aligned with Brazilian environmental regulations (CETESB) and ASTM E1527 standards. Additionally, the firm provides Diligência Ambiental (Environmental Due Diligence/Audit) as an independent service. The company also develops specialized remediation technologies including thermal process remediation (for VOC-contaminated soil) and an innovative sorbent-reducing technology for in situ treatment of chlorinated ethenes via permeable reactive barrier.

Products and services

• Avaliação Preliminar (Preliminary Assessment) Characterizes a site under study through historical occupation surveys and identification of potential contamination sources, establishing the initial conceptual contamination model for industrial and commercial properties.
• Investigação Confirmatória (Confirmatory Investigation) Field-based investigation activities that confirm or rule out contamination at potential and primary sources identified in the Preliminary Assessment, including soil and groundwater sampling.
• Investigação Detalhada (Detailed Investigation) Advanced environmental investigation that characterizes impacted physical media and quantifies concentrations of chemical substances of interest across all investigated media, defining three-dimensional limits of contamination plumes.
• Avaliação de Risco à Saúde Humana (Human Health Risk Assessment) Quantifies risk to human health for identified and potentially exposed receptors to chemical substances present in the investigated area, providing a decision-making methodology grounded in human health and environmental protection.
• Avaliação de Risco Ecológico (Ecological Risk Assessment) Verifies the occurrence of risk to species, communities, or ecosystems resulting from identified contamination, quantifying risk per decision unit and environmental compartment for each chemical substance of interest.
• Remediação Ambiental (Environmental Remediation) Application of various environmental technologies to reduce identified human health and/or ecological risks to acceptable levels in contaminated areas, including development of remediation alternative studies.
• Monitoramento Solo e Água (Soil and Groundwater Monitoring) Preventive monitoring program for soil and groundwater quality as required by CETESB for Installation License or Operation License renewal, using direct push samplers for soil and low-flow methodology for groundwater.
• Plano de Intervenção (Intervention Plan) Defines actions to eliminate or reduce risks to human health through remediation measures, emergency actions, institutional control, and engineering controls, including executive remediation system projects and monitoring plans.
• Plano de Desativação (Deactivation Plan) Strategic technical document for the safe, controlled closure or significant alteration of potentially polluting industrial activities, encompassing deactivation, execution, and environmental satisfaction phases.
• Diligência Ambiental (Environmental Due Diligence / Audit) Independent technical evaluation of current conditions of units and businesses regarding environmental management procedures and practices, based on ASTM E1527 standard adapted to Brazilian legislation, typically used for transactions, mergers, and compliance reviews.
