Managing Liquid Waste Effectively and in Compliance with Codes for Complete Neutralisation

 Liquid waste can include several waste products such as sludge, oil, grease, wastewater and hazardous household, commercial or industrial chemicals. Dealing with liquid waste is one of the biggest challenges of urban sanitation. Surface water pollution can occur when liquid waste contaminates a water supply and changes its chemical composition. This can have a grave effect on drinking water supplies and can also disrupt the aquatic ecosystem. Liquid waste can also contaminate soil if not treated and disposed of properly, leading to harmful chemicals infiltrating the soil. This can harm plant growth, as well as humans and animals that might consume contaminated products.  

Liquid waste services offer a variety of solutions for liquid waste pump out, liquid waste removal and liquid waste disposal, including dewatering, root zone and composting, and incineration. However, whatever method is used, it is important to handle liquid waste disposal in the correct and compliant way.

Cleaning of septic tanks

Septic tanks need to be desludged when the sludge depth is approximately two-thirds of the depth of the tank. The liquid above the sludge is relatively free of solids but it can contain untreated organic and inorganic chemicals. Fresh, untreated wet sludge poses high risks for human health and so it should not be put on land for use as soil conditioner to grow crops. Liquid waste pump out processes with a vacuum truck are normally used to suck the sludge out for correct disposal.

Liquid waste removal of storm water

For liquid waste removal of stormwater, it should be directed into stormwater drains. In case of prolonged rainfall, a stormwater drain may be unable to cope, leading to flooding. Sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) offer an alternative to large stormwater drains. These are designed to reduce the speed of surface run-off, encourage filtration into the ground and reduce the risk of flooding. Building ponds or holding areas in the drainage system can reduce the speed of stormwater flow, and also make water available for reuse. Instead of concrete, the sides of roads should be paved with gravel or stones. This will help in reducing surface run-off and replenish groundwater.

Solo Resource Recovery offers a host of liquid waste services, including liquid waste removal, and utilise the latest equipment and technologies. They aim to reduce the amount of biodegradable matter and solids in effluent, eliminate pathogenic microorganisms, and remove toxic materials.

Working on customised solutions for liquid waste management

Solo Resource Recovery’s range of liquid waste services includes industrial wastewater, brackish water, sewage sludge and biomass residues. Solo Resource Recovery’s trained staff will collect onsite wastewater samples and measure the technical parameters to ensure that all customer needs are understood. Then a customised solution for liquid waste disposal is presented to the client, taking into account their unique liquid waste attributes and spatial constraints. Upon agreeing to an optimal solution, a stationary treatment equipment may be installed if the liquid waste disposal requirement is voluminous. A mobile treatment system may be used for smaller liquid waste removal jobs.

While traditional alternatives require steps that are energy and resource intensive, Solo works on solutions that enable industries, organisations and residences to treat their feedstock on-site and without any additional processing steps, thus saving you time, resources and money.

Regulations require proper liquid waste management

Proper liquid waste management is important for a number of practical and environmental reasons. Organisations in Australia that produce liquid waste are required by law to have a liquid management system in place to properly dispose of it, to minimise harm to environment. Failing to adhere to the regulations may result in steep fines, as well as cancellation of permission to operate in a region. That’s why many businesses hire professional liquid waste disposal companies, such as Solo, to dispose of liquid waste in a compliant manner. Many businesses do not internally have the capability, expertise, equipment and knowledge to safely remove, dispose and manage liquid waste, hence the need to leave it to the professionals.

Getting valuable by-products from liquid waste

Solo Resource Recovery uses the right equipment to recover clean water and valuable by-products in its liquid waste services, that would have otherwise been lost during liquid waste removal and disposal processes. Solo has the right equipment, capabilities, and skilled staff, to process every type of wastewater stream, including the high-salt and chemical contents that can be treated to get valuable by-products, such as minerals that can be recycled for use in fertilisers. Solo uses unique properties of liquid wastewater under supercritical conditions that suddenly decreases the solubility of mineral salts, enabling separation of valuable salts from the mainstream.

Offering solutions for complete neutralisation of liquid waste

Each step of a liquid waste services process is adequately monitored until complete neutralisation of the customer’s liquid waste is achieved. Contact Solo Resource Recovery for all your requirements related to liquid waste services, such as liquid waste pump out, liquid waste removal and liquid waste disposal. The trusted waste management company provides its liquid waste management and solid waste management services to businesses, industries and residences, all over Australia.

Construction Waste Solutions with Project-Specific Approaches are Highly Valuable

  Construction waste is often reasonably clean, heterogeneous building material produced from various construction activities. It includes concrete, insulation and asbestos material, dredging, soil and stones, drywall, bricks, cement, wood, glass, concrete, plastic, ceramic, adhesives, and metallic waste. Construction waste materials are often inert and non-biodegradable and also bulky. It can be very difficult to haul off this kind of waste from a construction site. Moreover, the waste can pose a great danger to the environment if not managed properly. The highest priority should be given to address solid waste issues. Hazardous construction waste such as leftover paint and varnish, products containing mercury, adhesives, drums, and resins should be disposed of as per the regulations in force. Construction waste removal does not necessarily mean dumping it at a landfill. This is considered the last option if other methods of construction waste disposal are not possible. Constructio

Professional and Certified Septic Tank Cleaning and Grease Trap Cleaning Services for Households and Businesses

A septic tank collects liquid waste from toilet flushes, the kitchen, the bathroom, the floor, and other areas of a house. It traps and degrades all solid matter, converting it to sludge in the process. A septic tank allows wastewater and fluids to safely exit to underground dispersion areas known as drain fields or distribution trenches in this manner. Regular septic tank cleaning is necessary because the sludge that accumulates in it must be removed before it fills up to 30% of the septic tank's volume. Septic tank cleaning may be required every six months or every two to five years, depending on the size of the tank and the amount of waste it receives. Failure to perform septic tank cleaning at the appropriate time will result in sludge exiting the septic tank and clogging outlet pipes, which will eventually cost more to unclog or repair. Solo Resource Recovery has well-trained and experienced operators who perform all septic tank cleaning and pump-outs with professional expe

Stop Air and Soil Pollution by Choosing Vacuum Excavation, and Effectively Manage Your Construction Waste

Image
  Have you ever thought about digging a hole for a project? However, digging it by hand would be hard and time-consuming. Using vacuum excavation to dig the same hole, on the other hand, makes combining high-pressure water and an air vacuum easier for you and your project. These excavators are used to remove unwanted material from surrounding subsurface infrastructure, such as mud, sludge, and slurry. The soil is vacuumed into a waste tank and placed there for later disposal or backfilling into the hole through a vacuum hose. Why is vacuum excavation important? Vacuum excavation produces significantly less dust than conventional methods, regardless of the material being excavated. Massive amounts of dust are thrown into the air when soil is moved around on open-top vehicles like dumpers, excavators, and lorries or conveyor belts.  Vacuum excavation  pulls all of the spoil and dust from the pit directly into the vacuum excavator, which is better for the environment and the general p
