Soil Remediation
Onyx Hydrocarbons has adopted and innovated technologies to suit individual soil types and contaminants, eliminating or reducing the quantity of waste requiring costly landfill disposal. In-Site's soil remediation processes allow savings to be passed on to clients by treating soil on site, and heavily reducing off-site disposal costs and waste generation.
We provide solutions from straight disposal to in-situ treatment, and everything in between including off-site treatment and ex-situ on-site treatments.
WHY SOIL REMEDIATION
The aim of soil remediation works in the majority of cases is to reduce contaminants to levels which are ‘suitable for use’, essentially meaning you can use your site without environmental risks. As an example a client contacts us following the identification of an environmental risk. Concentrations of hydrocarbons in soils have been confirmed as being above safe levels for human health and as such must be dealt with before development of the site as a residential housing estate. In this situation remediation of soils may be a condition for planning consent.
