Project details

Military hazardous waste

Military hazardous waste from stationary camps usually consists of common industrial hazardous waste. Often the main problem is the local logistics.

Camp services in remote areas and crisis regions

To protect the local environment and population by means of dumped hazardous waste, even remote camps (oil & gas, military) must properly dispose of their hazardous waste. Usually, no local solutions are available
