New Chemical Emergency Response Service
Date: 20 October 2008
| Enva Ireland Ltd has launched its new HAZMAT (chemical emergency response) service under CEFIC best practise transport guidelines. |
|
| Bringing together a vast range of experience from the Field Services and Hazardous Waste divisions of Enva, this service is aimed at providing further peace of mind for chemical manufacturers, distributors and bulk waste producers within Ireland under the 'responsible stewardship' umbrella. |
|
| Working together with each client, Enva will tailor a HAZMAT procedure and service based on the type of chemicals involved and their associated risks and hazards. This service covers practical phone assistance (Level 1 response) to actual trans-shipment of bulk chemicals (Level 3 response) using specialised personal protective equipment (PPE) and other resources required for the chemicals involved. |
|
| According to Anthony Mulhall, Divisional Director at Enva; “We are capable of providing such a complex service to the chemical and pharmaceutical sector through our investment in both trained personnel and state of the art equipment. Our HAZMAT response team consists of chemists, dangerous goods safety advisors and hazchem trained personnel with a dedicated response trailer containing breathing apparatus (BA) sets, correctly specified chemical pumps/hoses and PPE”. |
|
| Through its Field Services division, Enva Ireland Ltd already has over 29 years of experience in dealing with hydrocarbon emergency spill response, while Enva’s Shannon facility is Ireland’s most advanced hazardous waste treatment & recovery facility. |
|
| Enva already provides a range of treatment and recovery solutions for a wide variety of chemical waste streams and related waste produced by a wide range of industries all over Ireland. Examples of the hazardous waste treatment services provided includes acid / alkali neutralisation, metal treatment by hydroxide precipitation, metal recovery by precipitation or electrolysis, water based paint, organic solvent bulking / blending prior to export, and storage of waste at our EPA licensed transfer station awaiting export to approved facilities within Europe. |
|
| All Enva vehicles used for the transport of waste are ADR approved, while Enva currently employs eight chemical technicians and a further 15 employees who are trained as Dangerous Good Safety Advisors, and provide advice to its customer’s on a daily basis regarding the transport, segregation and packing of chemical and hazardous waste. |
