SITE UPDATE: ESTD IN STRASBOURG, FRANCE

We have launched the 8th pile at our site in Strasbourg, France. We are treating polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and hydrocarbons by applying Ex-Situ thermal desorption (ESTD). We are working in collaboration with Ortec on this project. We are bringing together our expertise to give back health to our soils! We are currently in the processing phase of the remediation process. 41 burners are used and heated at 400-450°. The desired treatment temperature is at 200° and the method of treatment is by...

NEW SITE ALERT: ISTD IN UCCLE, BELGIUM

A new ISTD project (In Situ) site is underway in Uccle, Belgium. We are currently in the assembly phase and the origin of this contamination is from leaking oil tanks under a building. The treatment depth is 4 meters and 720m³ have to be treated. 42 burners are used to remediate the site. The soil will be heated during 50 days at a desired temperature of 220° to treat the oil tank contamination. Our technologies are adapted even to sites in urban areas...

Haemers Technologies in the media L1mburg Centraal

We are honoured for our appearance on the media L1mburg which shared a video of our presence in the site of Heerlen, where we are treating by thermal desorption Japanese knotweed, an invasive, non-native plant in Europe. As a reminder, we are currentlyt collaborating with Thermal Clean Shift on this project in order to eradicate Japanese knotweed in Heerlen ( Netherlands) using our Smart Burners technology. We are obviously flattered that L1mburg Centraal mentions Haemers Technologies as a hope...

ISTD by Haemers Technologies in Heerlen, The Netherlands

NEW SITE ALERT: ISTD FOR JAPANESE KNOTWEED IN HEERLEN

We are treating Japanese knotweed by thermal desorption in Heerlen, the Netherlands. Japanese knotweed (Fallopia japonica) is an invasive, non-native plant in Europe. The plant spreads through stem parts and rhizomes, causing damage to ecosystems, infrastructure and buildings. The municipality of Heerlen is mapping the locations where knotweed grows, and applying management measures and controls. With this unique pilot, the municipality of Heerlen and its partners want to investigate whether this unwanted exotic plant can be thermally controlled. To eradicate this harmful plant,...

NEW SITE ALERT: ISTD IN QUAREGNON, BELGIUM

A new In Situ Thermal Desorption site is underway in Quaregnon, Belgium. The origin of the contamination is from a residential oil tank and a volume of 40m³ has to be treated. Six burners are at work to treat hydrocarbon contaminated soil. Our thermal desorption technology can be applied anywhere you need it as you can see! Urban sites (outdoor or under a building), large scale sites: you name it! Thanks to our committed team...

NEW SITE ALERT: ISTD IN EAST KENT, UK

We started a new ISTD project (In Situ), in East Kent, UK, in partnership with Ecologia. We are assisting Ecologia's treatment installation (steam injection & air sparging) with the In Situ Thermal Desorption method at depths up to 30 meters with the combustion chambers localised at 9 meters and 22 meters below ground level. There are approximately 8000 tons of benzene contaminated soils. 16 burners, 5 meters apart, will be necessary to remediate the site. This is further...

NEW SITE ALERT: ESTD in Oberschaeffolsheim, France

We are working on a new thermal desorption's site, managed in collaboration with Lingenheld Groupe, in the city of Oberschaeffolsheim, not far from Strasbourg. It is an ex situ thermal desorption site and we are treating a pile of 3600 tons and a volume of 2000m³ polluted with hydrocarbons and PAH. To do this, we have set up 75 burners. Ex Situ Thermal Desorption in Oberschaeffolsheim Ex Situ Thermal Desorption in Oberschaeffolsheim Always motivated, together, to give back health...

SITE NEWS: Bonheiden ISTD site’s remediation progress

Soil remediation in Bonheiden is progressing well! The heating has started: we are reaching the 100 degree increments which is our target temperature. Therefore, we estimate the end of the work site in maximum 2 or 3 weeks. In Situ Thermal Desorption in Bonheiden. In Situ Thermal Desorption in Bonheiden, outside. Inside and outside, we are ready to remediate any surface in order to move towards a greener world. You'll have news from the site soon! Get an overview of the sites...

PBIE Article – Intermediate Progress Report

During the US-Vietnam War, millions of liters of herbicides were dropped over Vietnam: The Rainbow agents. Those Rainbow Agents were sprayed throughout the Operation Ranch Hand to clear thick jungle, by defoliating crops and forest. Among these Rainbow agents, Agent Orange was proven to cause severe health issues, including birth defects, neurological problems and cancers. Indeed, Agent Orange contained dioxins which are highly toxic environmental persistent organic pollutants. More than four decades after the Vietnam War ended (in 1975), the stability and...

Haemers Technologies ESTD pile in Vietnam

SITE NEWS: pilot ESTD pile in Vietnam

We have been able to take over an ESTD project started 2 years ago and located at Biên Hòa Airbase in Vietnam. Indeed, the heating has now started and this, in collaboration with The Ministry of Defense of Vietnam - The Center for Technology Environmental Treatment/Chemical Force (CTET/CF) and the GAET Corporation. This project is a pilot to prove the effectiveness of thermal desorption and thermal oxidation in the treatment of dioxin contaminated soil (Agent Orange residuals from...
