The Challenge

  • If you are responsible for a construction project worth over £300,000, there is a legal requirement on you to have in place a Site Waste Management Plan for the project
  • Virtually every organisation in redevelopment, particularly brownfield, needs to deal with contaminated waste
  • When redeveloping, it is incumbent on the developer to understand and assess the risks that result from demolition and construction
  • Planning necessitates a move to risk-based assessment of contamination in soils and other media
  • The EU Landfill Directive of July 2004 effectively banned the disposal of hazardous material in most landfill sites
  • Traditional methods for dealing with contaminated soils (most notably, land fill) are now not an option
  • At the heart of development planning, is the “reduction / re-use / recycle / recover” prioritising debate
  • Ultimately waste, which pre 2004 could be dumped, now has to be remediated and recycled as a usable product
  • Due to the great variation of waste constituents and media, any individual remediation project will usually require site specific treatment
  • The remediatied and recycled soil and other media could easily involve hundreds, maybe thousands of tonnes, all necessarily in-situ
  • Speed, efficiency, environmental sustainability, cost-effectiveness are imperatives
  • Cost-effectiveness in particular precludes trial and error – there is a need for a ‘best method’ solution

The Solution

  • Retekulation "the new word in land remediation" – a uniquely exclusive groundbreaking remediation process – the primary aim of Retekulation is for a 100% re-use of the source materials
  • Arletan applies retekulation on-site, thereby redressing and enhancing the budgetary implications associated with redevelopment, especially from an environmental and commercial perspective
  • Retekulation is the UK’s fastest growing method of contaminated land remediation. Using a broad range of well-proven and sustainable technologies, this recovery and recycling approach to mixed waste treatment and total soil recovery is the fastest and most cost effective method of remediation available
  • Soil to be remediated is tested and compared with the data from thousands of previously treated sites
  • This allows us to provide the most cost effective, efficient and environmentally friendly site specific treatment. Typically, such site-specific treatment is based on a database of formulae compiled from the treatment of contaminated wastes in thousands of prior projects
  • We provide you with on-site infrastructure, using fast road transport, compact mobile plant and rapid set-up, on a tight timescale. With flexible scalability for multiple treatment units our unique top-secret process of mixing of chemicals, reagents and binding agents is applied on site with any quantity of soil
  • Arletan offers an all-encompassing ‘one-stop-shop’. We can deal with your contaminant regardless of scale - quantity - and of time constraints. Our data-based track record, coupled with a one hundred percent success rate, guarantees a safe and sustainable future
