The Membrane Interface Probe (MIP) is adirect-push screening toolwith semi-quantitative analytical capabilities that is used to detect and log the relative concentration of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with depth in soil. The MIP can also detect and log electrical conductivity that can be used to infer soil texture (i.e., clay content typically exhibits a higher conductivity). The MIP was developed by Geoprobe Systems® in the United States (U.S.) and has been used extensively in the U.S., Europe and Canada for mapping the extent of VOC contamination in the subsurface.
