Who is Innova Soil Technology?
Innova Soil Technology was established in 1995 initially as a result of research conducted through the University of Newcastle, NSW. Innova has designed and manufactured a state of the art Direct-heated Fast quenched Thermal Desorption plant (DFTD) capable of treating all hydrocarbon-contaminated soils. The process has been designed in-house from a laboratory scale, then to pilot plant scale through to the construction of a fully operational DFTD plant capable of treating 30 Tonnes/hr of contaminated soil. Presently Innova employs eight full time and four part-time employees with offices located in Newcastle, NSW and Melbourne, Vic. Innova provides a safe and cost effective solution for the remediation of contaminated soils and associated environmental services. In 2003 Innova Soil Technology was awarded Engineers Australia – National Environmental Excellence Award for their work in soil remediation and for development of the technology.
