Practical support for selecting, designing, improving and consenting waste management systems.

Anoxic Tank for Biological Nitrogen Removal

Technology selection

We help you select waste management technologies and practices that fit your business. We do not sell equipment. Instead, we independently develop strategies, concepts and process designs around your needs.

Rendering plant odour extraction system

Odour control

Odours are a common source of complaint. We focus on practical, low-cost approaches:

  • Reducing odour emissions at source
  • Odour containment and extraction
  • Treatment by biofiltration
Laboratory glassware

Research & development

Difficult waste problems sometimes need a fresh approach. We can identify and test new processes targeted to specific problem areas.

SBR Wastewater treatment plant

Wastewater treatment

Design, management and troubleshooting of biological treatment systems, including:

  • Waste stabilisation ponds
  • Constructed wetlands
  • High-rate activated sludge systems
  • Wastewater irrigation

Waste minimisation

Waste minimisation is good business. We can measure waste generation, identify ways to reduce waste at source, and help reduce product loss and disposal costs. The objective is not simply to generate data, but to provide practical advice that reduces cost.

Waste Heat Evaporator

Value recovery
