Soilfix successfully remediated our site on time and budget despite an increasing scope of works caused by unforeseen underground tanks and associated contamination
Services
Completed as a crucial part of a remediation contract where programme/cost savings can be achieved through efficient phasing, recycling of materials and managing pollution risks.
Site Clearances Worthing
Toxic waste from previous industrial activities can be left behind, including chemical & fuel residues. Ideally, these will be removed by previous occupants. Where not, they can prove a pricey addition to demolition works and, where handled improperly, can aggravate contamination problems.
At your brownfield site in Worthing, Soilfix can manage the clearance of waste and chemicals to meet legal requirements and lower environmental risks.
Dismantling and Demolition Worthing
Soilfix personnel are competent in above and below ground demolition works in Worthing. Combining these works with remediation can reduce costs, maximise beneficial re-use of demolition materials and reduce the risk of environmental impacts.
Previous Worthing demolition projects have included transport depots, service stations and waste water treatment works. Soilfix undertakes thorough risk assessments and strives to gain a comprehensive understanding of client requirements and site constraints prior to commencing any demolition work. Where required, Soilfix can also manage the safe removal of hazardous building materials such as asbestos and lead-based paints.
Tank Removal / Treatment
Fuel/chemical tanks and infrastructure need to be removed in a controlled manner by a competent contractor to minimise risks of further contagion. Soilfix takes measures to effectively remove residual liquids and renders vessels inert before their removal. Impacted soils can often be removed and treated simultaneously.
Under certain scenarios and where risks are acceptable, redundant tanks can be left in situ. Cleaning, degassing and filling vessels with inert material (e.g. concrete slurry, foam or sand) weakens ongoing risks and can be a more cost effective alternative to removal.
Materials Recycling Worthing
Soilfix is devoted to providing its clients with the most sustainable use of materials generated on the site. Measures generally include: Crushing of concrete, brick and tarmac to form engineered fill; Reuse of sub-grade granular materials; Enhancement of the geotechnical properties of existing materials; Manufacture of subsoil and topsoil from contaminated strata; Composting of green waste; and off-site recycling of metalwork. These operations decrease traffic movements and reduce build costs.
