Abstract: The Eight Steps to Proper Soil Remediation
By
Southwest Soil Remediation, Ltd. is a Houston-based PST soil recycling facility. SSR is approved by the TNRCC as a Class A treatment facility allowed to accept and recycle non-hazardous petroleum-contaminated soils. SSR is also registered as a Class B treatment facility and is capable of mobilizing and recycling materials on a client's location.
Recycling is an approved technology under Subchapter K of TAC 334. Petroleum-contaminated soils are recycled into stabilized base and construction materials. SSR uses an eight-stage process that consists of the following:
- Waste profiling and waste approval
- Material movement
- Materials handling - upon receipt
- Pre-recycling analyses
- Recycling
- Post-recycling analyses
- Storage and placement of recycled materials
- Compliance records keeping
Soil recycling may be a cost-effective remediation alternative to landfill disposal.
