Sludge & Dewatering

Dewatering is the removal of water from solid material or soil by wet classification, centrifugation, filtration, or similar solid-liquid separation processes, such as removal of residual liquid from a filter cake by a filter press as part of various industrial processes. Sludge refers to the residual, semi-solid material left from industrial wastewater, or sewage treatment processes. It can also refer to the settled suspension obtained from conventional drinking water treatment, and numerous other industrial processes.

HCR’s Dewatering Services

Handex Industrial Services, LLC (HIS) is a nationwide provider of Pumping, Dredging, Sludge Dewatering and Treatment for industrial and process wastes. This operation includes a HAZWOPER trained and OSHA certified staff of experienced Project Managers, Operators, Technicians and Mechanics.

HIS specializes in the removal and pumping of sludge from lagoons, basins and tanks, utilizing Hydraulic Submersible Pumps, Pontoon Pumps and Floating Dredges.

Handex Industrial Services process over 40 million gallons of sludge annually, achieving volume reductions of up to 80%. The proprietary High Pressure Plate and Frame Filter Press treatment solutions HIS utilizes are widely regarded as the most cost effective for many RCRA Hazardous Waste Streams. This liquid/solid separation technology yields the greatest volume reduction, while generating the minimum quantity of waste residue. It returns recyclable sludge byproducts, including oils or metals that can be further reclaimed, refined or recycled. In many cases, HIS clients find that the value of the raw materials to the plant pays for the cost of the sludge dewatering service.

Waste Minimization

Handex Industrial Services utilization can increase waste minimization savings from less offsite transfer, which is about 80% volume reduction. Savings may also occur from reduced sludge removal and pre-treatment solutions, completely mobile and self-contained equipment for remote locations, treat-ability testing to achieve optimum process choice and filter acids and reduced disposal filtrate costs.

Tank Sludge Removal & Demotion

HIS performs specialized services that include the removal and processing of tank bottoms at oil refineries and industrial plants. Tank sludges processed by HIS include Crude Oil Tank sludge, F-037; API Separator sludge-048-K-052, Benzene contaminated sludges, DAF sludge storage, and mixed sludges.

In addition, HIS has extensive experience in safely managing tank dismantling, demolition and decommissioning for both Aboveground Storage Tanks (ASTs) and Underground Storage Tanks (USTs).

What is Vapor Intrusion?

Vapor intrusion is the migration of vapors from below ground petroleum or chemical spills into overlying buildings, creating a health hazard for building occupants.  The problem is not confined to industrial or petroleum facilities – it extends to commercial and residential buildings which may be a significant distance from the source of contamination.

Concerned residents, industry leaders, and regulators are quickly becoming aware of the risks associated with vapor intrusion.  In many parts of the country, new regulations have sprung up, directing swift action to identify and address the problem, particularly at “sensitive receptor” sites such as daycare centers and schools.

Comprehensive, Cost Effective, and Swift Solutions

HCR has the expertise to help you understand if your facility, building or residence is at risk.  We provide reliable solutions that will allow you to fully comply with recent regulatory changes and keep occupants healthy and safe.

We test for, evaluate and mitigate vapor intrusion – quickly and cost-effectively.  Our scientists and engineers have years of experience conducting vapor intrusion risk assessments and investigations.  If we find a problem, we can design and install immediate response measures and permanent solutions.

HCR’s vapor intrusion services include:

• Risk assessment and preliminary investigations
• Indoor air and sub-slab vapor testing
• Design and installation of residential and commercial mitigation systems
• Source investigation
• Design and installation of soil and groundwater remediation solutions

Industrial and Petroleum Facilities

Where required, HCR has designed and installed large scale sub-slab depressurization systems for industrial, petroleum and large commercial facilities to immediately prevent the migration of vapors from the subsurface.  We can quickly identify the source of the problem and devise permanent solutions at even the largest sites.

Commercial, Residential and Brownfield Sites

Spills from gasoline stations or industrial facilities can spread via soil and groundwater beneath neighboring buildings and adjacent homes, with substantial risk of impacting indoor air.   HCR can quickly provide field testing services to identify vapor concentrations, and respond immediately to eliminate potential health or explosion hazards.  

HCR installs a vapor mitigation system at a site in New Jersey.

A History of Dependability

Due to the attention this issue has generated, and regulatory changes in many communities, there are a wide range of consultants and contractors offering services to address Vapor Intrusion issues.

With a 40-year history providing environmental consulting, engineering, and contracting, HCR is one of the oldest and most trusted names in the industry.  We work closely with state and local regulators, and our clients trust us to help them comply with the changing regulatory landscape.  We are certified to offer a full range of services in-house, with our own testing and construction equipment to complete any size project.
