Accuworx Responds to Mystery Spill

The Accuworx spill response team was activated for a mystery spill. The unknown substance coated 1.3 km of a creek through a large city. The pH of the creek approached 10.5 and a substantial fish kill ensued. The crew quickly deployed silt control measures and began setup of their unique sediment control pump and treat system. The crew activities included power washing of the spillway, moling of 1|2 km of storm water lines and air lancing of the creek bottom. The treatment system was fed by our 6400 cfm vac truck that pressured off into a settling tank. The treatment system ran at 150 gpm and removed sediment down to 0.5 micron before returning the water to the creek. This process saved the client a considerable amount of transport and disposal cost. Stakeholders on site included MOE and Regional representatives.
All fish were removed, the creek re balanced and the park returned to its original state.

Accuworx Haz Mat Team called in to Hamilton

The Accuworx HAZ MAT Team was called into Hamilton, ON late last week to assist the Client with Waste Characterization and Disposal options.  What was found were 150 – 200 abandoned drums in a shipping yard.  The team processed, identified, labelled, and transported the waste to a Ministry of Environment Approved receiver.

Accuworx sends 2 of its GUZZLER'S for Carbon Clean up

Last week Accuworx was called into North Toronto to vacuum out Carbon Media from 2 Scrubber Units.  The two Guzzler manufactured trucks were more than capable of vacuuming the very dusty material into its tanks.  Accuworx has a sole sourced company for Carbon Regeneration and in turn has recycled what was assumed waste by the client.
