THE ECOMESH SOLUTION


The Changing Business Environment.
Ecomesh has recognised the problems that face the construction and waste disposal industries in the currently changing business environment. Increasing legislation towards the reduction of the amount of material going to landfill, increasing eco-taxation and rising costs of transport and disposal make traditional methods unsustainable.
Ecomesh offers a cost effective and lower risk solution for remediating contaminated soil and waste, allowing the opportunity to redevelop contaminated ‘brownfield’ building sites for residential and commercial purposes.

Contamination Risk Management.
The widely accepted source, pathway and receptor risk model is used to determine pathway interception and treatment. The problem with waste is not just having somewhere to put it, nor is it just working out how to treat it and turn it back into usable material.
It is also a matter of prevening the spread of pollution in the form of leached out chemicals that migrate into the surrounding soil, and the prevention of groundwater contamination.
This applies not only to brownfield sites where the contaminated soil is present, but also to new landfill sites dealing with imported waste or older landfill sites where treatment is ongoing.The pollution has to be quarantined, leachate pathways have to be intercepted, and the contamination treated. Ecomesh can do it all.

Contaminated Land Remediation.
We live in an environment with a legacy of Industrial contamination and we have a duty to prevent future pollution of our valuable natural resources. Ecomesh can help. Traditionally dig and dump is the practice for dealing with contamination on brownfield sites and entails export of the pollution to another site.

The Ecomesh solution contains and remediates the contaminated soil on site, avoiding the costs of transport and landfill dumping charges, preventing further pollution. Once the treatment cell void is filled with the contaminated soil, it is capped, and the area can then have a variety of end uses – carparks, gardens, or even lakes can be built over the sealed cell. When treatment is complete the decontaminated land restores land value – we turn brown field to greenfield.

Landfill Benefits.The Ecomesh system is also ideal for construction of new or extension of old or existing Landfill sites. Leachates are contained by the self healing clay barrier materials, and the unique vertical sides increase the usable volume by at least 33%.

Existing landfill sites can also be extended upwards, with a 33% volume advantage over traditional extension systems, minimising the area of land required for the extension.
The same vertical extension technology can also be used to extend existing bentonite slurry walls, preventing overflow of leachate and surface contamination creep.

THE ECOMESH SOLUTION
The Ecomesh solution is a lower initial capital cost alternative than traditional methods of waste disposal, with significant legislative and taxation advantages and lower overall environmental impact. The concealed treatment cells can be overbuilt with useful carparking or landscaping, offering greater public acceptance and utility.

When compared with traditional remediation methods the contaminated material is treated more expediently with future liability issues and the potential for secondary contamination reduced or eliminated. The unique vertical modular construction significantly increases cell capacity and a smaller cell footprint for the treatment cell yields the same saleable void space for the landfill operator at less capital expense at the outset. All of this technology is supported by world class biochemical research and analysis. If you need to know more, please contact us.

Remember, the Ecomesh Offer is;

Lower initial costs
Faster remediation
Reduced liability
Increased capacity
One stop shop for site analysis and treatment
