Contaminated Soil Remediation and Recovery

Contaminated Soil,
Sludge Pits and Tailing Ponds.

Until now, depending on the type of contamination, the accepted practices to remediate soil have been to excavate, transport and dump the contaminated soil at a qualified toxic landfill or excavate and transport to a approved hazmat landfill where it is burned and buried. These methods of remediation do not relieve the landowner or the original offender from ongoing liabilities, which in some cases carry severe fines and penalties along with civil and criminal prosecution.

Sludge Pits and Tailing Ponds are a man-made environmental disaster and have set-off a global crisis. Each day, millions of gallons of water contaminated with oil and heavy metals are dumped into large storage areas known as Tailing Ponds or Sludge Pits. The size of these retention areas range from a few acres to thousands of acres. It is estimated that 500,000 tons of contaminated tailings are produced daily at one major tar sand extraction site and another location in Canada covers an area estimated in excess of 80 square miles.

These ponds represent a major environmental threat to our drinking water supply. According to a report released in December of 2008, 11 million liters of contaminated water are leaked from tailing ponds every day. It is estimated that currently 4 billion liters enter our ground water supply every year representing a major financial opportunity for the company with the use of our PetroLuxus™ CS-400. Our specially blended formulas separate the hydrocarbon material (Oil), from the water.

Remediation and Recovery Solution:  PetroLuxus™ CS-400.

PetroLuxus™ CS-400 allows for on-site cleaning of contaminated soil and water while implementing the extraction and recovery of hydrocarbons, heavy metals and toxins, thereby reducing the cost of transportation and burial in a hazardous waste landfill. The demulsifying feature of the CS-400 is significant in soil washing because of the ease of liquid phase separation after the cleaning process. By remediating on-site the result could be savings of 35% to 50% over existing technology.
