2. About the project:GPT were contacted by the client following the set- up of a new manufacturing processon site. This resulted in theproduction of a new waste stream, the exact composition of which was unknown. The requirement was to remove large quantities of up to 13 tonnes of the waste stream, in powder format, fromsite. A site visit was undertaken immediately, in order to assess the logistics of the job and also to understand both the process from which the waste was produced and the make- up of the waste. A sample was taken within 24hours of the request and sent for analysis by GPT. In addition, the most appropriate method of both collection and removal were discussed and considered. Roll on Off Containers were discussed but deemed to be unsuitable due to the loose nature of the powder and potential problems with disbursement of the waste around site. Thus, it was determined that tanker collections wouldprovide the optimum method of collection and prove cost effective due to maximising load weights being removed from site. 3. Project Challenges:Once the analysis was formally confirmed, asuitable recycling route was sourced for thewaste. This proved successful and rates ofbetween 95%- 100% are being achieved bymixing the waste with other aggregates. Inaddition, transport solutions were provided andtop loading tankers proved the most suitablemethod of removing the waste from site. A trialload was undertaken within 7 days of theoriginal request being made and this provedsuccessful. As a result, regular loads of between10 tonnes and 14 tonnes are being removedfrom site on a regular basis. Regular monthlyrecycling reports are produced to confirm therecycling rates achieved for the waste stream. 4. List of Product and Services: 5.
