Our team at Keystone Waste Solutions has extensive experience in waste management, and you can count on us to provide the solutions you need. One of the many challenges involved in waste management is ensuring hazardous substances are properly contained, rather than being left free to contaminate the soil or groundwater. If you are dealing with hazardous materials of any kind, you will need environmental roll-off containers for your job site. In this article, our team will provide some key information you need to know about these containers and how they work.
- Dewatering Containers — One of the functions environmental roll-off containers are designed to perform is dewatering. As the name suggests, dewatering is the process of separating liquid waste from solid waste, resulting in a dry, solid material that is easier to handle than sludge or mud. This type of container is used in industries where wet materials are common, including wastewater treatment, environmental remediation, and more.
- Vacuum Containers — In some situations, it is not possible or practical to let wet materials dry before transporting them. In cases like these, another type of environmental roll-off container is used: vacuum containers. These environmental roll-off containers are designed to safely store and transport liquid and semi-liquid materials such as sludge, drilling mud, and even hazardous chemicals. They keep everything, even liquids and gases, safely inside the container so no seepage or off-gassing can contaminate the environment. You can count on our team to provide you with the high-quality containers you need to ensure your work site and the environment around it remains safe and healthy.
