PCB
Disposal has conducted remediation of PCB-contaminated soil
at numerous sites in Canada where soil became accidentally
contaminated by leakage of improperly stored drums, spillage
of oil from obsolete electrical equipment, transportation
accidents and in-service transformer leaks, to name a few
examples. Whether the extent of contamination is large or
small, PCB Disposal defines the scope of the excavation, removes
the contaminated soil, conducts confirmatory sampling and
testing for PCB residues and restores the area to it's original
state, including landscaping as required.

PCB
Disposal has successfully cleaned up several sites where extensive
PCB contamination was present. Depending on the tonnage of PCB
contaminated soil involved, we can provide various options to
our customers including containers and temporary buildings for
on-site bulk storage of soil, on-site bioremediation and transportation
and decontamination of soils and gravel up to 5 cm in diameter
using thermal desorption thermal destruction technology or destruction
by incineration.

| Due
to the mismanagement of PCB-contaminated electrical equipment
and illegal dumping of PCB wastes into makeshift landfills,
PCB contamination in some regions of the country is substantial.
In some instances, it has lead to contamination of ground water
and aquifers. PCB Disposal can provide services to sample, monitor,
analyze and treat PCB-contaminated ground water. See "Water
Decontamination" for more information. |
