EnviroHub
Simple and stress-free solutions for environmental protection
EnviroHub is a control system used by the quarrying and construction industries to monitor, treat, and report on water quality onsite.
A site may accumulate water from the ground when digging, use water in the production process or to wash down equipment after use. As a result, there can be contaminants in the water which can cause problems on site and be harmful to the environment.
With sites now required to provide proof of safe water disposal and water quality checks routinely being carried out by the Environment Agency, a robust monitoring system such as EnviroHub plays a vital role. In addition to monitoring and reporting water quality onsite, EnviroHub can inform the site if the water is unsafe to be disposed of and can automatically intervene. Furthermore, the relevant system ensures that any water the site is to dispose of is treated and is free from pollutants. Disposing of water that contains pollutants can result in heavy fines and can damage a company’s reputation.
Furthermore, incorrect disposal of water has resulted in solids or concrete silt blocking drains, chemicals killing off local wildlife and trees and costly environmental clean-ups needing to be undertaken.
EnviroHub monitors all types of water usage and disposal onsite including, but not limited to:
- Site dewatering applications – the removal of excess water from quarries and construction sites.
- Lagoon, pond or excavation dewatering
- Monitoring concrete washout water and correcting it
- The monitoring of flow and solids used in a wash plant
- Process plant effluent treatment
- Sludge thickening and solidifying
