Stormwater ponds act as filters to prevent debris from seeping into our natural water systems and positively impact erosion.
However, these ponds fill with debris that settles on the bottom as sediment. It usually contains sand, silt and clay from surface erosion, but can also include less human-friendly elements such as hydrocarbons and salt.
Ongoing maintenance is key to the success of this passive water management tool. If the sediment is left to build up in the pond and is not removed regularly, the stormwater pond can no longer properly filter debris.
Our non-toxic, inert* solidification reagents convert tunneling and drilling spoils to a manageable solid, on-site, in minutes. The solidified waste can then pass Slump and Paint Filter Tests, and typically requires a dose of less than 1.0% wt/wt.
The solidified slurry is transferred to dump trucks to be transported directly to the final disposal site. It reduces risks, lowers operational costs, and promotes a safer, more sustainable waste management approach in tunneling projects.
