Cost Effective Liquid Waste Disposal Services Utilising Innovative Waste Management Techniques

by Mason Whittaker Contructor

Liquid waste is divided into specific categories, depending on the risk it poses to the environment, humans, wildlife and marine life, and plants. Liquid waste disposal can involve treating residue from industrial processes, septic tanks, solvents, industrial processes, and other types of refuse.

Liquid waste disposal should be handled professionally as its mishandling can lead to a variety of environmental problems and health issues. Dewatering can only be applied if the liquid waste is non-hazardous. During the process, the water from the liquid waste is removed until only solid waste remains. For this, a centrifuge device can be used by the liquid waste disposal service provider that utilises rotation at a high velocity to separate materials having different densities. Belt filter presses can be used by professional liquid waste disposal services provider Solo Resource Recovery. A belt press is used to separate water molecules from the sludge and collect the remaining material in a trough.

Sedimentation as a liquid waste disposal process can be used during the initial processes of sewage treatment. The wastewater is made to travel through large tanks which are used to settle the sludge as oils rise to the top and are then skimmed off. This simple method has been used across the world for centuries. 

Incineration for liquid waste treatment and disposal

Incineration is primarily used for liquid waste disposal of hazardous liquids by Solo Resource Recovery, such as industrial liquid waste containing chemicals and acids. The liquid waste is delivered into a combustion chamber, where it is incinerated to about 850 degrees centigrade. In the second combustion chamber, the waste is heated to 1,150 degrees. This process creates hot gases as well as ash residue. The gas temperature is reduced after the initial incineration and then treated by experts at Solo Resource Recovery to remove the pollutants before releasing it into the environment. In some incinerators, the heat produced can be used to power steam turbines for generating electricity. When combined with high-tech gas scrubbing systems, incinerating waste can save space in landfills and minimise danger to the environment. The ash residue can be safely disposed of in a landfill.

Septic tank pump out services

Septic tanks are not served by the council sewer service. Rather than pumping waste through sewer mains to a central sewage treatment facility, a septic tank pump works by pumping solid and liquid waste from the house out into a drain field and underground septic tank. The septic tank holds the waste material long enough for the solids, oils, grease, and liquid waste to settle to the bottom, while the scum residue later floats to the top. When the tank reaches the capacity, the liquid lying on top of the scum layer flows onwards to a drain field that is specially prepared to help disperse the liquid waste. The solids in the tank break down under the effect of anaerobic bacteria. If the bacterial action is effective, these solid wastes are greatly reduced in volume as they break down.

Septic tank pump out is recommended every two years, with mechanical pumping typically required every three to five years to empty the tank. Larger and undersized systems that see very heavy use may require septic tank pump out annually. Industrial grade systems may require a septic tank pump out every six months or even earlier.

The frequency of septic tank pump out servicing

A septic tank pump out process involves removing sludge from the bottom of the tank, and this needs to be done before the sludge builds up to a level where it actually blocks the outlet pipe. The frequency of septic tank pump out depends on a variety of factors, such as the size of the septic tank, size of the household, amount of wastewater generated, and the volume of the solids in the wastewater. Larger tanks can hold more solid sludge and thus will need less frequent septic tank pump outs. Larger households generate more waste and fill up the septic tank faster, thus requiring more frequent septic tank pump out servicing. Moreover, households with many toilets or that make frequent use of garbage disposal, tend to fill up the septic tank quicker.

Professional waste management services in Australia

As a professional septic tank pump out service provider, Solo Resource Recovery’s professionals will inspect your septic tank regularly and inform you when it’s time for a septic tank pump out service. Generally, this is when the floating scum layer is within 6 inches of the outlet pipe leading to the drain field. Solo Resource Recovery has the right equipment and technicians and arrives with a large tanker truck with vacuum equipment that sucks out the contents of the septic tank. A muck rake is usually used to stir the contents of the tank to break up the solid waste in the septic tank, and mix them with the liquid material to make septic tank pump out more efficient.

Whether you are a business in Australia with large liquid waste disposal needs, or a homeowner who needs septic tank pump out services, Solo Resource Recovery can help you with your waste disposal needs. The company possesses state-of-the-art equipment and technicians to provide full-scale waste management solutions in a compliant manner. Other waste management solutions provided by Solo Resource Recovery include facility management, council waste services, business recycling services, industrial bins, document destruction, medical waste services, vacuum excavation, subsurface engineering & maintenance, and more.
