WASTE MANAGEMENT
Black & Veatch has built up a substantial track record in waste management worldwide,
over the last two decades, ranging from the development of solid waste management
masterplans to the supervision of closed landfill restoration.
Drawing on a wealth of expertise in waste management, materials handling, power
engineering, hydrogeology, leachate treatment and environmental management, we are
able to offer sustainable solutions to almost any problem in the waste industry.
Areas of particular experience include:
- Waste masterplans
- Sludge disposal
- Material Recovery Facilities
- Landfilling
- Composting
- Site restoration
- Waste-to-energy
- Transfer stations
- Environmental monitoring
Environmental pressures to conserve natural resources focus on the reduction of
waste in all its forms. Commercial considerations will usually encourage minimisation
of industrial wastes, while public awareness education may result in long term reduction
in household waste production. We can help in assessing the optimum system for waste
management in any situation.
We can design and supervise the construction of any form of waste handling, treatment
or disposal facility. We have successfully engineered numerous transfer stations,
waste-to-energy plants, material recovery facilities and landfill sites throughout
the world. As well as designing facilities to meet all legislation requirements,
we are able to demonstrate compliance through formally documented monitoring and
audits.
