SUSTAINABILITY
DONE THE RIGHT WAY
Elite’s ART™ Remediation is not only the right choice for the environment, client but its increases safety by limiting the truck traffic on the roadways. It is faster, safer with a much smaller footprint while eliminating the issue and not hauling it to a landfill where you still have the long-term liability. We “ARTINIZE” hydrocarbons, chlorides, salts, Amines, Metals, TCE, Drill Cuttings, the list goes on and on!! CONTACT us today for free quotes, you will be glad you did!
ART™ has certain benefits that make it attractive for our clients:
- ART™ is a cost-effective option for removing contaminants from the soil. It works with volatile contaminants such as hydrocarbons, chlorides, metals, amines, drill cuttings, TCE, and other regulated contaminates.
- The ART™ by Elite's ex-situ remediation process is mobile and may be utilized on-site or at an approved off-site location, to meet the scale of your project.
- Elite's ART ™ eliminates costs associated with loading trucks, truck transportation, and hazardous waste liability and disposal fees.
- Elite's ART™ removes ALL risks and liability associated with transportation of hazardous waste on public roadways to reach its destination. Our process reduces fuel consumption, vehicle emissions, roadway wear and tear and liabilities associated with transporting hazardous waste material to and from your work site.
- The ART™ process eliminates the transportation costs associated with traditional “Dig & Haul” remediation methods. It reduces fuel consumption, vehicle emissions, public roadway wear and tear, liability risks of Hazardous Material transportation, as well as disposal fees.
- The introduction of foreign soil, needed for site restoration and back fill, can create soil incompatibility issues that reduce vegetation stability.
- Elite's ART™ remediation process is an effective, efficient choice for your remediation needs. Our process saves you money, eliminates your waste liability, and reduces your carbon footprint.
We are the pioneers of Patriots ART™ , with 50 combined years of experience and over half a million yards of lab documented, remediated soils at sites across ten US states.
(ART™ Soil Remediation Process)
ELITE Environmental is now offering an ART™ soil remediation process for hydrocarbon impact soils. This cost effective treatment has been tested and approved by a number of states for use in remediation of soils from oil and gas operations throughout the Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions. Utilizing an aeration and chemical oxidation process to remediate hydrocarbon impacted soils, this on-site technology provides a rapid and permanent solution to your hydrocarbon impacted soils. ELITE can assist with the site characterization and delineation in preparation for the process at your sites.
The Remediation Process
The process is designed to mobilize and remediate a site rapidly to provide a quick and beneficial reuse of the remediated soils. ELITE utilizes a combined soil shredding and screening process with an internal chemical application process to remediate the hydrocarbons to state and site-specific regulatory limits. Soil screening to facilitate segregation of materials for specific onsite use can also be accommodated in the process. Based upon the site specific characteristics of the soil contamination, the soils are treated and processed through the shredder with an oxidation chemical at a rate up to 300 cubic yards per hour. Post treatment confirmation samples are analyzed to insure the effectiveness of the remediation. The ART™ Remediation Process leaves no bi products and the soils ready for vegetation growth. The only difference in the ART™ production rate is the soil types, structure and contaminates. The different clays, muck normally the rate is approximately 1000 cubic yards a day so that the ARTINATOR™ gets the soil into sand size particles in ensure product coverage. The sander soil allows for approximately 1500-2000 yards a day. The key to ART™ is to allow coverage of products to the soil particles. Elite has perfected the ART™ process to ensure that 99.9 % of all material put in the ARTINATOR™ gets product contact to allow Elite to give each client a 100% guarantee to meet the clean up standards of all local, state, and federal agencies.
The process is an excellent choice for large scale projects as there is an economy of scale in cost per yard to be achieved with larger soil volumes. ELITE will work with clients to establish a cost per yard rate based on volume to be treated at each site. Cost per yard per treatment and beneficial reuse is generally less than offsite landfilling costs. Treatment of soils containing up to 50,000 mg/kg TPH typically require only one treatment, higher levels of impacted soils can also be treated. We have treated oil base drill cuttings with a TPH over 150,000 mg/kg and chlorides over 70,000mg/kg.
Treatable Contaminants:
- Condensation
- Crude Oil
- Diesel
- Gasoline
- Lubricants and other Refined Products
- Drill Cuttings
- Metals
- Amines
- Salts
- Chlorides
- PFAS
- MANY MORE
State Regulatory Approvals
The Process has been successfully used in the following states:
- California
- Colorado
- Kansas
- Louisiana
- Montana
- North Dakota
- Oklahoma
- Texas
- Utah
- Ohio
- New Mexico
- Wyoming
Acceptance of the Process by additional State Regulatory agencies may be expedited due to their familiarity with chemical oxidation as a known and proven method of in-situ remediation of hydrocarbons.
Benefits of the Process
- Rapid remediation of hydrocarbon impacted soils. Rates of up to 300 cubic yards/hour are possible with the process.
- Enables beneficial reuse and segregation of materials for onsite use.
- Project funding focused on treatment, remediation, and site closure, not characterization studies.
- Eliminates potential future landfill liability issues.
- Cost effective compared to landfill disposal.
- No long term land farm monitoring required.
- Zero waste generation.
- 100% confidence that all soils have been treated and remediated.
