Contaminated soils
With more and more brown field sites being released for development, the issues of contamination are becoming more common place in the construction industry. Elvanite Recycling's experience in both the identification and removal of the numerous categories of waste, make their services and support in dealing with contamination, where it arises, advantageous to the client. The identification of the various types of contamination is necessary at an early stage. Elvanite Recycling's ability to provide the client with both soil contamination reports and the advice of operations that will be necessary to either remove or remediate on site, prove to be beneficial in both areas of cost and programme. The ability to identify the waste at an early stage before demolition can reduce costs by avoiding the removal of unnecessary materials and of course the expense of extra material to refill the voids. When removing the hard surfaces and foundations of redundant structures, the contamination, if not identified at an early stage, will be spread unnecessarily throughout adjacent excavations.
Being aware of ever changing rules and regulations, methods of disposal or on site remediation processes are the forefront of Elvanite Recycling's contamination advice.
Today's shortcut could be tomorrow's nightmare.
Professional advise costs money, badly decontaminated sites cost more!
