Saline impaired water is a ubiquitous feature of the Australian landscape and the need for innovative technologies to deal with this issue is now a priority. The ‘waste disposal’ paradigm needs to change to ‘resource recovery’ especially with environmental and legislative requirements which limit the scope, cost efficiency and sustainability of conventional saline water management practices. This paper provides an overview of the challenges and the opportunities for sustainable management of large volumes of saline impaired waters. Selected case studies and the outcomes of recent trials of innovative zero discharge processes on various saline streams are provided to illustrate the advantages of technology based solutions over conventional practices. The key advantage is the productive use of saline water as a resource, while achieving zero discharge outcomes. Associated benefits include smaller environmental footprint, increased water recovery and the opportunity to sell valuable by-products to offset the operation costs.
This summer, Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London, published a draft London Environment Strategy for public consultation. The strategy outlines his plans to tackle the London waste disposal concerns.
When it comes to London waste disposal, Khan’s ambition is that: “by 2026 no biodegradable or recyclable waste will be sent to landfill and by 2030 65% London’s municipal waste will be recycled”.
Currently, waste disposal costs ratepayers £2bn a year. Only 52% of London’s 7m tonnes of...
Disposal of demolition or construction waste is a common cost element facing many contractors, particularly in our major cities where significant landfill charges are applicable.It’s not only landfill charges that cost. When truck fuel, road tolls, operator time and project downtime are considered, the costs really add up. Disposal of small lots can also be annoying as these stockpiles often don’t warrant a full load, yet must be stored somewhere pending transport to landfill. Taking spoil to landfill...

At present,hazardous waste is a facing an increasingly serious environmental problem .so the mainstream of industrial waste disposal methods: curing landfill, biochemical method, incineration disposal method. Other hazardous waste disposal methods include high temperature steam sterilization, microwave, plasma incineration, pyrolysis incineration, wet air oxidation, advanced biology, alkali metal dechlorination, cement kiln incineration, melt incineration, centrifugal separation and electrolytic oxidation.
TodaySure™ was selected to supply two containerised incinerators for the South Pole, which is the most pristine wilderness on Earth. Working in extreme temperatures and climate conditions, the units are designed to dispose of food scraps and sludge from the biological treatment plant.
