Collaboration agreement
Collaboration agreement concluded with leading multinational provider of sustainable waste management and remediation solutions.
VentEko (Latvia) and Savron, a division of Geosyntec Consultants International, Inc. (Canada) have signed a letter of intent for collaborative marketing to promote the STAR / STARx technologies for the treatment of contaminated soils and the management of liquid organic wastes within the countries of Uzbekistan, Kazahstan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan and Baltic Countries – Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia.
Parties will collaborate in project implementation where STAR / STARx shall be applicable.
Savron
Savron is a multi-national provider of sustainable waste management and remediation solutions, specializing in the safe, energy-efficient, environmentally responsible treatment of a broad range of hazardous materials. Savron’s solutions help organizations in the oil and gas, waste management, chemical manufacturing, and utilities industries manage environmental liabilities and comply with regulatory requirements.
STAR and STARx
Savron’s solutions are based on a revolutionary adaptation of smoldering combustion that captures and recycles the energy released from hazardous materials to destroy them in a manner that is self-sustaining, faster, and simpler than many alternative solutions available in the remediation industry today.
A broad range of hazardous materials, including petroleum hydrocarbons, coal tar, creosote, and mineral oils can be treated with smoldering combustion. It works faster and to a substantially higher environmental standard than many other hazardous waste management practices, including thermal desorption, incineration, and solidification.
There are two treatment solutions: STAR for the in-situ treatment of contaminated soils and STARx for the ex-situ treatment of contaminated soils and liquid organic wastes. Both solutions help organizations in the oil and gas, waste management, chemical manufacturing, and utilities industries better manage their environmental liabilities and comply with regulatory requirements.
Benefits
Both applications offer significant benefits over other technologies currently available in the market place as they are fast, reliable, energy efficient, environmentally sustainable, inexpensive and safe.
