Years of experience and expertise in driving compliance
To date, SANEXEN has effectively processed, regenerated and recycled over 30 million liters of PCB-contaminated mineral oil using our PCBD® dechlorination process. Over 30,000 tonnes of waste, electrical equipment and PCB-contaminated soil have been destroyed using SANEXEN’s proprietary processes.
Our team of experts ensures that contaminated waste is labelled and packaged in compliance with the Hazardous Material Transportation regulations. Contaminated waste is sorted to allow for optimal, consistent packaging, in order to minimize disposal costs.
Contaminated waste is then directed to authorized treatment centres by qualified and certified staff using SANEXEN’s highly effective transportation system. The company operates in compliance with the Hazardous Material Transportation regulations.
SANEXEN developed proprietary processes for the decontamination and regeneration of PCB-contaminated mineral oils. The ability of this mobile process to perform in situ decontamination on either de-energized or energized transformers represents a significant asset.
