SOIL-THERM EQUIPMENT, INC has been supplying the industry with the finest
remediation equipment since 1990, but the roots go back much further than that. Mark Sujata, Founder and President of SOIL-THERM EQUIPMENT, INC, is uniquely qualified in this position. Mr. Sujata’s 
extensive background in science, environmental compliance, aerospace, and cutting edge combustion technologies gives SOIL-THERM many more
advantages over the competition. He has learned that continuing to advance our products’ performance has been the key to making SOIL-THERM’s equipment the very best in the industry.
Upon completion of degrees in Chemistry/Biology, and a Masters
Degree in Environmental Sciences, Mr. Sujata landed a job overseeing the Environmental Compliance Program for a large aerospace company that developed advanced space and defense-related flight engines.
In that role, Mr. Sujata gained a w or ki n g knowledge of every aspect of environmental compliance from water discharge regulations to hazardous waste storage and
disposal laws. Working closely with regulatory agencies on all environmental matters and innovative waste minimization solutions, Mr. Sujata achieved a 95% reduction in hazardous waste disposal costs within a 4-year period.
Upon being transferred to the Aeropropulsion Group, Mr. Sujata worked with world-renowned experts in high speed flight engines and advanced aerospace combustion
principles applied towards practical and engine flight simulation testing. This group led the world with such Mach 3+ accomplishments as the design and development of ramjets for the SR-71 Blackbird engine, the Blackbird
D-21 Drone, Advanced Strategic Air Launched Missile (ASALM, Mach 4+) and a Mach 8+ scramjet engine for the National Aerospace Plane project. 
Mr. Sujata formed a new group to develop these technologies for environmental and
waste cleanup applications. Under his supervision, successful initial research resulted in an award and funding by the California Dept of Health Services’ prestigious “Hazardous Waste Reduction Grant Program”
for the building and completion of an advanced research laboratory and demonstration test study. Numerous articles, publications, and press coverage resulted from the many exciting accomplishments achieved during this period.
For over 15 years, SOIL-THERM has continued to set new standards in the industry. Our latest Micro-THERM thermal systems
offer performance that is unmatched for its size, offering a super-small remediation system for very space restricted
locations. Our line of Micro-, Mini-, and Compact-THERMs are loaded with deluxe features such as noise enclosures, Variable
Frequency Drives, “Pressure Side Dilution Air Blowers”, stainless steel piping and knockout, and operational combustion
capabilites that we’ve been told are unmatched and far less expensive to operate than any other equipment manufacturer.
And our latest Mobile-THERM systems offer incredible mobile capabilies for SVE, DPE, and groundwater treatment - - setting a
whole new standard of performance and processing capabilities for pilot testing, short-term cleanups, and fast response.
As President of SOIL-THERM, Mr. Sujata continues to conduct ongoing R&D and design integration of these technologies
towards ever more efficient combustion processes for lower fuel operating costs, higher processing flows, and smaller more
powerful system sizes. Towards that end, SOIL-THERM continues to be the premier thermal equipment manufacturer with
the most diverse and proven equipment solutions specifically for remediation and environmental marketplaces.

X-43A Scramjet Firing, 3/27/04
|
SOIL-THERM congratulates NASA Dryden for their successful launch and achieving Mach 7 with the latest X-43A supersonic
combustion ramjet (scramjet)! This marks the first time a scramjet has achieved these speeds in actual flight. Like SOIL-THERM Jet-Therm
oxidizer systems, the scramjet scoops air (oxidizer) into the extremely turbulent flame region while injecting hydrogen fuel (SOIL-THERM uses natural gas or propane) enabling best fuel efficiency and maximum combustion
efficiency to reach these speeds. The X-43A scramjet is able to maintain flight using low Oxygen concentrations at 100,000
feet - - maintaining its flame and thrust at speeds over twice as fast as a speeding bullet. This successful scramjet flight is a huge breakthrough in the history of flight!

SOIL-THERM wins ENVIRONMENTAL BUSINESS JOURNAL Award!
In January, 2004, SOIL-THERM EQUIPMENT, INC was awarded the Environmental Business Journal’s prestigious Technology Merit Award “for developing and deploying thermal and catalytic oxidizer systems with the new Jet-Therm combustion burner process technology, which was
demonstrated this past year to achieve virtually 100% destruction of VOC’s from soil-vapor-extraction, multi-phase-extraction, and chlorinated emissions control applications.”
Micro-Therm has arrived! SOIL-THERM is proud to announce our latest equipment integration of the ‘award winning’ Jet-Therm combustion technology - - Micro-Therm. At only
3-ft x 3-ft, its believed to be the smallest complete SVE blower and oxidizer system on the market! This system allows operators to clean up sites in the most space restricted locations. And the
benefits are numerous - - flow rates to 300 cfm, fuel consumption is low, installation is simple, space required is minimal, extraction rates are impressive, and impressive operating flexibility at any SVE cleanup site.
