A new wet processing solution for hydrovac waste integrates with thermal desorption tech.

The Challenge:

Operating around the clock to reduce waste-to-landfill volumes across Australia, SOLVE, Enviropacific’s state-of-the-art soil and waste processing facility in the Melbourne suburb of Altona, is the setting for an innovative approach to industrial waste management.

A new hydro excavation waste solution, designed and engineered by wet processing industry experts CDE, has been commissioned at the waste treatment facility to process NDD (Non-Destructive Drilling) muds.

The CDE Solution:

At the heart of the solution is CDE’s HYDRO:TIP™, which allows operators to process wet waste with ease and efficiency. It can handle torm waterwaste, dredging spoils and waste muds in a cost-effective and responsible manner, facilitating the recovery of high quality sand and aggregates that can be re-sold to generate additional revenue.

In contrast to evaporation ponds, the HYDRO:TIP™ enables dewatering on a compact footprint. This makes setting up in urban environments much easier, and therefore minimises transport requirements for the disposal of wet waste within metropolitan Melbourne. In addition, the HYDRO:TIP™ dewaters material twice faster than conventional systems meaning trucks can get back out onto the road quicker than ever before.

The Results:

The commissioned plant is currently processing up to 30 tonnes of NDD mud per hour to recover sand and aggregate products including a reusable 0.075 – 0.5mm ultra finewashed sand and +5mm oversize for construction applications. It also has a surge capacity of 60 tonnes per hour for two hours to help manage peak periods for dumping.
