PROJECT SUMMARY

RED engineering Design was commissioned by Soltec to design the solvents new tank farm, new distillation line integration, design customised carbon adsorption abatement systems and provided 3D modelling of the complete installation for construction.

Hazardous Waste Treatment Capacity Grows 300% to 20,000 Tonnes

The hazardous waste treatment capacity has increased by 300%, rising from 5,000 tonnes to 20,000 tonnes per year. This significant growth enhances the ability to manage hazardous materials effectively, promoting better environmental safety and public health.

Emission values 10% at licensed limits

This indicates excellent process capability giving a great margin of safety in regulatory compliance.

Tailored Abatement System Design for Soltec's Regulatory Needs

RED Engineering Design has successfully identified a bespoke abatement system design tailored specifically to meet Soltec's unique regulatory requirements and budget constraints. This personalised solution not only adheres strictly to the necessary environmental regulations but also ensures cost-effectiveness.

We at RED are proud of our contributions to Soltec's new solvent recycling facility. Our tailored approach, including advanced VOC control systems and optimised design, ensures operational efficiency and compliance with regulatory standards, significantly enhancing Soltec's capabilities and supporting Ireland's circular economy.
