Sterling is able to treat over 300 types of waste as identified under the European Waste Catalogue (EWC) codes, and these are listed on our Environmental Permit.
We have over 30 years of experience treating liquid waste in our aerobic effluent treatment plant and capability to treat waste in our anaerobic digestion (AD) plant. We have the ability to test materials for suitability for either plant on-site, and are willing to test a number of waste types including hazardous wastes to expand our treatment offering.
We can treat wastewater in our aerobic effluent treatment plant, including leachate, tank washings, boiler blowdown, cooling water, site drainage water, mildly acidic and alkaline water, and weaker glycols. This treatment provides a disposal code (D08).
We can treat wastewater in our anaerobic digestion plant. Examples of wastes includes alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol, pentanol), acetates (methyl acetate, elthyl acetate, isopropylacetate) glycols (MEG) and complex sugars (glucose). These streams can also be mildly acidic (acetic acid) and strongly alkaline (caustic). This treatment provides a recovery code (R03).
We can treat wastewater in our anaerobic digestion plant. Examples of glycol wastes treated within our plant include alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol, pentanol), acetates (methyl acetate, elthyl acetate, isopropylacetate) glycols (MEG) and complex sugars (glucose). These streams can also be mildly acidic (acetic acid) and strongly alkaline (caustic). This treatment provides a recovery code (R03).
We can treat leachate in our aerobic effluent treatment plant, including tank washings, boiler blowdown, cooling water, site drainage water, mildly acidic and alkaline water, and weaker glycols. This treatment provides a disposal code (D08).
We can treat hazardous waste in our anaerobic digestion treatment plant. Examples of hazardous waste that we can treat nclude alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol, pentanol), acetates (methyl acetate, elthyl acetate, isopropylacetate) glycols (MEG) and complex sugars (glucose). These streams can also be mildly acidic (acetic acid) and strongly alkaline (caustic). This treatment provides a recovery code (R03).
We can treat waste solvents containing minimal pharmaceutical ingredients in our anaerobic digestion plant. Examples of wastes includes alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol, pentanol), acetates (methyl acetate, elthyl acetate, isopropylacetate) glycols (MEG) and complex sugars (glucose). These streams can also be mildly acidic (acetic acid) and strongly alkaline (caustic). This treatment provides a recovery code (R03).
We can treat commercial food and drinks wastes in our anaerobic digestion plant. Examples of wastes includes alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol, pentanol), acetates (methyl acetate, elthyl acetate, isopropylacetate) glycols (MEG) and complex sugars (glucose). These streams can also be mildly acidic (acetic acid) and strongly alkaline (caustic). This treatment provides a recovery code (R03).
