Remediation

When it comes to providing effective solutions to contamination problems Ecologia has expertise in a wide range of innovative, efficient technologies using multi-disciplinary approaches. In addition to traditional decontamination methods, much of our remedial work uses scientifically advanced, in-situ techniques, avoiding the need for excavation. These less intrusive methods reduce environmental impact caused by landfill and lorry movements. We actively develop faster, more efficient remediation methods, testing new techniques, enabling us to meet our clients’ needs in the best and most economical way.

Competence

As responsible practitioners we are holders of legally required licences to deal with waste, and provide relevant and ongoing training for our staff. Clients can therefore be assured that our working practices are entirely sound.

• Ecologia is licensed to operate all technologies offered
• We are licensed to carry waste
• We employ full time staff who hold Waste Management Industry Training and Advisory Board (WAMITAB) NVQ Level 4 Certificates of Technical Competence
• We invest heavily in training for all our staff, maintaining optimum product quality and ensuring compliance with current health and safety requirements.

Capability

We do not merely operate the remediation systems we offer; in most cases they are our own designs and developments. Our in-depth understanding allows us to select and implement the most appropriate strategy for the individual situation.

• Our remediation systems are designed and manufactured in-house by environmental scientists and engineers specifically for the site in question rather than on a generalised basis
• Where appropriate, we are able to use groundwater modelling software to improve the design of our remediation strategies
• We are able to carry out and fully interpret field trials prior to designing remediation strategies for large projects such as soil vapour extraction radius/sphere of influence, aquifer tests and biotreatability assessments
• The equipment we use is manufactured or assembled in our own workshops.

Innovation/Flexibility

Through our policy of continuous development, Ecologia is able to provide flexible solutions which best meet the needs of the client, the situation at hand and the environment.

• Our wide range of in-situ and ex-situ technology provides effective and flexible solutions to all situations without the need for compromise
• In-house researchers apply their specialist knowledge to upgrade existing technologies and identify new and innovative approaches
• Operational quality is maintained through the design and manufacture of our own advanced remediation systems, which feature discharge monitoring and automated telemetric feedback.
