We understand that Land Remediation is not an exact science and that the delicate balance between acceptable hazard and remediation effort can make all the difference between project success and massive project losses.
As landfill and waste treatment costs continue to increase, the traditional methods involving large scale dig-and-dump remediation become less pragmatic. The alternative on-site methods, decision-making tools and better assessment technolgies implemented by RITE Advice mean that work can be carried out at a fraction of the cost normally associated with large scale remediation.
At RITE Advice we make use of the new and emerging technologies such as reliable geosynthetic clay linings (GCLs), Thermal Desorption techniques and Microbial Bioremediation wherever practicable. Our optioneering systems are key to providing the best practical environmental solution particular to each individual project. The soil contaminants we are currently able to remediate are as follows:
- Radionuclides (Cs+137, Am-241, Sr+90, Pu-239, U+238, etc.)
- Heavy metals (Lead, Mercury, Copper, etc.)
- Petroleum Hydrocarbons (C8-C35)
- Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs)
- Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs)
- Pentachlorophenol (PCP)
- Asbestos
- Pesticides
- Cyanides
- Sulphides
- Creosote
- Semivolatiles (SVOCs)
- Volatiles (VOCs)
Where dig-and-dump techniques are the only practicable option we provide accurate in-situ screening techniques to ensure unncessary volumes of contaminated waste are minimised.
