CHEMICAL IMMOBILISATION & SOLIDIFICATION TECHNOLOGYToxfree’s Chemical Immobilisation and Solidifi cation (CIS) technology has been recognised as a world leading technology for the immobilisation of both organic and inorganic contaminants. The Toxfree CIS technology has been researched, developed and verifi ed over a number of years in Australia and other countries.

The key features of the technology include:

• Treatment of hazardous wastes by conversion into safe solids for sustainable disposal in a practical, cost effi cient and environmentally friendly method;

• Lower bulk out factor compared with conventional CIS and macro-encapsulation technologies resulting in less waste going to landfi ll;

• Testing by numerous independent laboratories to confi rm that the treated material is capable of meeting the most stringent environmental legislation; and

• Completion of numerous tests, pilot studies treatment projects for both waste generators and waste treatment companies.

The effectiveness of the technology has been verifi ed by the CRC for Waste Management and Pollution Control (UNSW), the University of Nevada USA, and the Materials Institute of Western Australia.

Toxfree CIS Technology meets regulatory acceptance and Toxfree has received many immobilisation and treatment approvals for its use. These approvals include waste materials containing organic compounds such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), cyanides and phenols, and metals such as arsenic, lead, mercury and cadmium.

Toxfree is committed to providing its clients with the most effective and effi cient CIS outcome for any project; large or small.

The SolutionToxfree has developed the use of the Dolocrete® Chemical Immobilisation and Solidifi cation (CIS) technology to immobilise the arsenic so that it is safe for disposal. The treatment involves the mixing of Dolocrete® reagents with the residue using Toxfree’s mobile treatment plant.

PLASCON TECHNOLOGYThe PLASCON® process is a compact plasma torch developed by CSIRO and further refi ned by Toxfree as a state of the art hazardous waste treatment process for persistent organic pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyl’s (PCB’S).

PLASCON® utilises pyrolysis in an inert environment, which is achieved through a patented plasma arc process. A mixture of waste liquid and oxygen is injected radially into the plasma with an average mixing temperature at the injection manifold exceeding 3000°C destroying the molecules, converting them into atoms and ions. Contaminants are eliminated with a destruction effi ciency in excess of 99.9999%, which exceeds the most stringent standards set by government agencies around the world.

The LWD unit is evidence of Toxfree’s use of innovative solutions to benefi t our customers and the environment. LWD involves the benefi cial reuse of water-based drilling by-products enhancing minimal disturbance outcomes during drilling operations.

PLASCON TECHNOLOGYThe PLASCON® process is a compact plasma torch developed by CSIRO and further refi ned by Toxfree as a state of the art hazardous waste treatment process for persistent organic pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyl’s (PCB’S).

PLASCON® utilises pyrolysis in an inert environment, which is achieved through a patented plasma arc process. A mixture of waste liquid and oxygen is injected radially into the plasma with an average mixing temperature at the injection manifold exceeding 3000°C destroying the molecules, converting them into atoms and ions. Contaminants are eliminated with a destruction effi ciency in excess of 99.9999%, which exceeds the most stringent standards set by government agencies around the world.

Harm Free – Toxfree’s Leading Safety CultureIn everything we do we are committed to putting safety fi rst. We are dedicated to developing a workplace that is incident and injury free, by working together to send our employees and contractors home safe from work every day.

We have developed a safety culture where ‘if you see it, you own it’ promoting a strong ‘Stop Work Authority’ for all employees in the event an act is considered unsafe. In addition we have robust systems and tools to aid our people in safely performing their duties and assisting our customers in achieving the same. Our safety initiatives, job site inspections, step back 5x5 and observation reports to name a few, make us a responsible supplier that is easy to do business with.

Toxfree’s integrated management system is called QUEST (Quality, Environment, Safety and Training). This triple certifi ed system is pivotal to our commitment of a Harm Free culture, ensuring all our people are provided with comprehensive health, safety and environmental training, backed by global standards.

Our commitment and vigilance to a Harm Free culture has resulted in external recognition through the following awards:

• ABA100 winner for ‘Innovation’ in the Australian Business Awards 2014 for outstanding commitment to the creation and development of well managed initiatives;

• Awarded the 2014 Chamber of Minerals and Energy (CME) Safety and Health Innovation Award in the systems category for the development of Toxfree’s Confi ned Space i-Watch Surveillance system; and
