Technology Development

The practical and cost effective application of emergent science and technology in the assessment, monitoring and treatment of effluent, waste and contaminated land is becoming increasingly important as landfill costs increase and solutions to complicated sites are needed.

 

The development of novel solutions is not only important when difficult contaminants and conditions are encountered, it is also key to providing more sustainable and cost-effective solutions. In many cases, existing technologies can be enhanced by adapting them to specific site conditions, whilst on other occasions, innovative solutions, at times using emergent technologies, are required.

 

SSEM’s staff with diverse backgrounds and technical expertise, provide professional advice on the best choice of technology for any problem, be it on-site remedial technologies, the assessment and verification of contaminant status, or tools for decision making. We are actively involved in collaborative projects with leading universities and research institutes and keep abreast of the development of new technologies and techniques around the world.
