Sump Pumping for Industrial Facilities

Industrial facilities, as part of their daily process, create liquid wastes and environmental runoffs in large volumes. This waste is collected in large sumps. Upon reaching a specific level, this waste is transferred to waste storage, treatment, or disposal facilities.

Depending on the content, sump waste may be hazardous. Industrial facilities with sumps in operation must adequately determine if the contents of the sumps are hazardous before shipping waste off site for disposal.

If the sump is associated with the use or spilling of hazardous materials, it is important to hire an environmental cleaning company to properly clean and dispose of the waste.

By partnering with an environmental cleaning company for sump pumping needs, industrial facilities can eliminate any non-compliant discharges into sewer systems. A professional cleaning service has:

  • Vacuum Trucks
  • Industrial Service Trailers
  • Confined Space Equipment
  • Pressure Washer

Catch Basin & Storm Drains Cleaning

Catch basin is an inlet to the storm drain system which helps to remove sediments, debris and associated pollutants. In order to maintain the sump capacity, catch basin cleaning is recommended before basins are 30% full of sediment. Basins that collect more sediment may need more frequent cleaning.

Catch basin cleaning requires specialized equipment including vacuum truck to effectively remove pollutants and sediments. High-pressured water helps to loosen up compacted material and vacuums help to remove solids and liquids.

It is important to hire a professional company for catch basin cleaning to avoid injury and prevent hazardous spills. With professional catch basin cleaning, industrial facilities can:

  • Reduce flooding risks
  • Minimizes nuisance odors
  • Eliminate health & safety risks
  • Prevents pollution of waterways 

Oil Water Separator Tank Pumping and Cleaning

The oil water separator is the system that processes materials collected from run-off collection systems. Once in the separator tank, oil floats to the top, and the debris, dirt, wood and other materials go to the bottom.

The water helps separating the oil from the materials, making it easy to collect and dispose it off. As the tank fills up, it becomes important to clean the oil and other materials and replace the water. Industries with oily water include:

  • Auto and heavy truck repair shops
  • Transportation fueling facilities
  • Scrap metal processors

Oil water separator cleaning requires enclosed space entry, making it important to hire a professional environmental cleaning company to do the job.
