As waste treatment and wasteto-energy projects divert wastes from landfill, and landfill gasto-electricity projects involve the destruction of methane, they result in the avoidance or reduction of carbon emissions. Carbon Emission Reduction projects result in the generation of tradeable ‘carbon credits’.
Waste-to-energy plants allow industry to minimise the amount of waste to be disposed of to landfill.
They also facilitate the generation of electricity for their own requirements. Any surplus electricity can be supplied to the local grid
Envitech supports the integrated waste management approach, including waste minimisation, treatment and recycling. Integrated waste management or treatment systems are available, in modular format or as complete systems, depending on specific requirements.
Landfill gas management services include gas yield modelling, gas monitoring, gas extraction and Flaring systems, and landfill gas-to-electricity systems. Alternative uses For landfill gas are investigated to offer the appropriate use option such as thermal energy for kilns and boilers, or electricity generation using reciprocating engines and generators.
The objective of CQA is to ensure that a lining system is installed according to the technical specifications, with the best possible workmanship, and within the constraints of budget and schedule. CQA services are provided independently from the manufacturer, installer and owner.
Compliance with legislation governing the treatment and disposal of waste requires extensive expertise and experience in modern sanitary landfill engineering. This expertise must cover the total life cycle of modern engineered landfills, from site to selection studies, detailed design and licensing, through to closure and rehabilitation design and post-closure monitoring.
Cost-effective strategies are needed to minimize the potential for pollution. These strategies include the design and installation of lining systems using a variety of geosynthetic materials and geocomposites for landfill basal liners, the closure and rehabilitation of landfills and tailings dams, heap leach systems, and storage lagoons for effluent, hazardous waste and chemicals
ELL testing is carried out using state of the art calibrated equipment and technology, providing engineers, installers, contractors, and facility owners with invaluable information with regards to the integrity of the geosynthetic lining installation.
Envitech provides civil engineering services within the urban, rural, commercial and industrial environment. Services range from project inception and design through to project implementation and close-out with experienced personnel support throughout. Specializing in bulk sewer, water and stormwater management systems, our offerings extend from the private individual to the large-scale industrial sector client
The environmental impact of mining operations can be significant. Proper engineering design of mine waste management, rehabilitation and pollution control systems is a prerequisite for the approval and issue of mining and water-use licenses. Envitech offers a complete engineer, design and construct (EPC) solution to mining clients.
Design and construct solutions are provided by the Envitech group including Feasibility studies through to design, procurement, installation, operation and maintenance of facilities on a long-term basis.
