PROJECT: EMI and Magnetic surveys at closed waste disposal sites LOCATION: Holloman Air Force Base near Alamogordo, New Mexico PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Designed and performed total-field magnetometer surveys in tandem with EM-31 terrain conductivity (EMI) surveys of approximately 53 acres of closed landfills at an Air Force base in New Mexico. Survey was designed to detect buried metallic debris and soil conductivity. The magnetic method successfully identified numerous burial locations and the EM-31 method successfully delineated boundaries of old landfilling sites. Performed detailed data reduction and provided Client with line-contour and color-contour maps with Latitude-Longitude coordinates.
About the Project
Leader in the management of solid waste, Veolia materials residual is established in the Quebec region for over forty years. 22 600 tonnes are produced and beneficially used each year, which in total translate to 300 000 tonnes of organic matter diverted from landfills since the beginning of the program.
Recycling cardboard for use as new packaging material saves costs for the manufacturer. Unfortunately, landfilling the ragger wire that comes as a byproduct of the recycling process is costly. With the help of TANA Shark, this added cost can be turned into profit by separating the metal and selling it to be used again.Ragger wire or pulper tail is the residue of steel wires and plastic that remains after a pulping process. A mass of recyclable paper is being processed with the help of water. The remaining mass,...
Expensive and diesel-hungry waste shredder led to an innovation in crushing construction and demolition waste (C&D waste). The compaction force of a twin drum design landfill compactor is unparalleled. When directed straight down onto the unsorted waste or landfill residue, the solid steel crushing teeth bite into the waste. The crushing is so efficient that the required fraction size is achieved with just a few passes of the landfill compactor. This results in savings in operation costs, and there is no need...
At the beginning of 2016, Chalk River Laboratories (CRL), Ontario/Canada, which is part of Canadian Nuclear Laboratories (CNL), put into operation a Urraco 75 DK mobile shredder from Lindner (www.l-rt.com) on their site. On the landfill for non-contaminated waste, which is operated by the company`s Decommissioning & Waste Management division, the shredder is in permanent use crushing wood, plastics and light materials from demolition, renovation and new building work. On the 40 km² site with around 160...
