A revolution in environmental remediation
Advertorial
Sanitech, a leader in portable sanitation and hygiene solutions, has partnered with Sensatec, an expert in environmental remediation, to tackle soil and groundwater contamination in Namibia. This collaboration will accelerate the adoption of in-situ remediation, a sustainable and cost-effective method that minimises disruption by treating contamination directly on-site.“By leveraging cutting-edge technologies and experienced teams, we can significantly accelerate remediation timelines,” says Harry Ylikangas, CEO of Sensatec Africa. “In-situ remediation reduces costs and environmental impact, making contamination treatment more efficient.”
Sensatec will introduce a range of innovative technologies, including:
• Bioremediation – Using microorganisms to break down contaminants.
• Thermal Desorption – Heating soil to remove pollutants like VOCs and heavy metals.
• Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) – Powerful oxidants to treat pesticides, dyes, and industrial chemicals.
• Permeable Reactive Barriers (PRBs) – Engineered barriers to intercept and treat contaminated groundwater.
• PFAS Desorption Technologies – Proven in-situ and ex-situ methods to eliminate harmful PFAS contaminants.
By integrating these advanced solutions with Sanitech’s local expertise and rapid-response capabilities, the partnership ensures seamless execution and accelerated remediation timelines.
Comprehensive solutions
Together, Sanitech and Sensatec offer a turnkey service, covering site assessments and feasibility studies; design, procurement, and construction; and long-term operation and maintenance.
“This partnership leverages our strengths to address the urgent need for sustainable remediation,” says Robert Erasmus, MD of Sanitech. “By working together, we provide clients with comprehensive environmental solutions.”
Sanitech and Sensatec aim to lead soil and groundwater remediation efforts by delivering cost-effective, innovative, and environmentally responsible solutions.
“This marks a milestone for Sensatec in Africa,” adds Ylikangas. “With Sanitech’s local expertise and our advanced technologies, we’re ready to transform environmental remediation in the region.”
