Introduction. Soil vapor extraction (SVE) involves the application of a vacuum in the vadose zone to induce the controlled flow of air and removal of volatile and some semivolatile contaminants from the subsurface. SVE is applicable to the treatment of contamination located above the water table in unsaturated (vadose) zone soil.

These tasks are technology-specific, but typically cover two broad areas: (1) monitoring parameters associated with the technology itself (process monitoring), and (2) monitoring the remediation progress in the context of remedial action goals, such as measuring changes in concentrations in the impacted media (performance monitoring).
