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 dislodged 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.
